What are the chances that Prokhorov gets thousands of emails a day at that website (the guy is worth $13.4B) and would even reply to a shareholder, so I would consider it a safe bet that no reply will be received for weeks, if at all. With that said, I did send email. If I get an answer, I will post it.

I also looked at some info on him and his strategy and found this statement in a Dec 8th pub:

"A year ago, Prokhorov said in an interview that he viewed his gold holding in Polyus as a hedge against his cash pile, held mainly in U.S. dollars. His gold assets rise when the dollar falls, and his dollar assets gain when the price of gold declines, he said at the time. Now, he said, he intends to keep less than 20 percent of his wealth in cash."

This is no guarantee that he's looking at Supatcha, but investing in Gold is in line with his strategy for next few years.

Plus he just became CEO of another Gold company. He is pub on that from Dec 9th:

Prokhorov to replace Ivanov as Polyus Gold CEO (Part 2)
MOSCOW. Dec 9 (Interfax) - Mikhail Prokhorov, one of the core owners of Polyus Gold (RTS: PLZL), will become the No. 1 Russian gold producer's chief executive officer, Polyus Gold said in a statement.

Prokhorov will replace Yevgeny Ivanov, who will be responsible for the Polyus group's international projects in the capacity of become chairman and CEO of KazakhGold.

Prokhorov was chairman of the board of directors at Polyus Gold. He will be replaced in that post by Ekaterina Salnikova, deputy CFO at Prokhorov's Onexim Group.

"The Company sees the development of its business in Russia and abroad as one of its most important short-term targets. Realization of the planned measures is aimed at ensuring the maximum growth of the Company's capitalization in the interests of all its shareholders. This task will demand mobilization of all resources of Polyus Group in close coordination of efforts with its shareholders. To ensure all opportunities are employed I made a decision to take the lead as Head of the Company. I am grateful to the Company's Board of Directors for support of my decision," Prokhorov was quoted a saying.

Prokhorov said in an interview with Bloomberg Television this week that Polyus Gold intends to merge with an international rival once it has obtained a London listing and become one of the world's top three gold miners. He said Polyus might obtain the listing next year - it would all depend how merger talks progress. Prokhorov himself will look to secure a minority stake that is large enough to influence the new company's strategy. He said a London listing might lift Polyus Gold's value 20%.

Prokhorov's Onexim owns or controls around 40%. Suleiman Kerimov's Nafta Moskva used to own 36.88% of Polyus Gold, however reports suggest Nafta may have sold 10% from its stake to Dmitry Rybolovlev

Here's another on the same topic http://www.cnbc.com/id/40588557/

My point is the possibility that the unsolicited offer is real is quite high.
