Posted elsewhere by me:

If you take the total expenses of NEM for a year and divide that by the total output, you get a figire of $305 per ounce for gold. So it appears that as of about a year ago the breake-even point for Newmont was about $305 per ounce.

Barrick was harder to figure because they had some huge extraordinary item that I did not understand.

But it does appear that around $300 per ounce is what gold miners need to make money.

Anyone want to challenge or correct this?
