ABX Buying calls is bullish for PoG as opposed to selling them. I think the production increases are taken as negative.

> Hedging being continued in fact but more calls have been purchased

Looks like down to me:

Barrick reduced its long-term call options sold from 4.0 million ounces at the end of the third quarter, to 2.7 million ounces at year end.

> Pasqua is going to be huge and more huge.

I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I continue to say production will go up, and the big will get bigger.
Pascua would be the 25th largest gold miner if it were a stand-alone company. Don't forget Rodeo (only 350,000 ounces per year) and Bulyanhulu (only 400,000 ounces per year)
