The ASX has been crying out for a genuine mid-tier gold force and there could be a couple on the horizon.

Papillon Resources was removed from the local bourse on Tuesday, after a $615 million merger with Vancouver-based B2Gold Corp, which is worth about $1.6 billion. Street Talk understands B2Gold has told Australian investors since the takeover that it is considering an ASX listing.
