i fully agree. in that sense the mining stocks remain actually quite undervalued: as you say, they have become much more efficient. take DROOY: it used to have production costs well over $400/oz. NOW it produces BELOW $200/oz.
so the effect of the gold price rise on its earnings is much more pronounced than it used to be. and yet, the stock is still far from where it traded a few years ago. probably an after-effect of the long bear market: no-one trusts the bull move quite yet.
btw., '77 - '80, DROOY rose from $2 to $52. but that was of course a bubble...-g-
