The leverage to POG of the five major PM companies:
increase in pre tax cash flow from a move from 275 to 300.

Newmont/FN/NDY 162 million if unhedged
Goldfields 90 m
Anglogold 39 m
Placer Dome 36 m
ABX/HM 25 m.

As a percentage of enterprise value, leverage or sensitivity to POG is still rather low except perhaps for Goldfields and almost nonexistent for ABX/HM, AU, and PDG:

EV/pre tax cash flow increase from 25 POG advance:
NEM/FN/NDY: 60 X : EV is 9.8 billion
Goldfields: 23X : EV is 2.1 b after WMC
Anglogold: 120X : EV is 4.6 b
Placer Dome: 114X : EV is 4.1 b
ABX/HM: 336X : EV is 8.3 b
