1. Gold in the Ground
Is not equal to gold to pay back loans.

What if gold goes up enough to make the losses on the forward sales/calls exceed their annual revenue and cash on hand? Will the counterparties sit back and relax knowing that "they'll get it all out of the ground in 4 years"?

I think not.

Once again, look at what is happening to Ashanti and Cambior.

Cheers,

THC
