with gold miners, reserves & resources dictate, not PEratio

otherwise, how could a company be valued at anything, which holds mine properties that are not in operation producing gold

hard physical asset firms are valued differently, as compared to fluffy companies selling soon obsolete products from soon leapfrogged Intellectual Property patents

if you sit on a gold mine, it is worth big bucks
when you begin producing, it is worth more
when you accelerate production, it is worth even more
the actual production level is a choice of management
usually that decision depends upon metal price
