I have found Mineweb to be quite a reliable source of information especially on South African issues. DROOY is known as a marginal producer, which is why it is so highly geared to the POG. I traded it several times last year for good profits, but I do not have a position at the present time.

I find that it is important to monitor both the POG and the SA Rand when trading SA miners such as DROOY as it is the Gold price in Rand that determines if they are mining at a profit or not. Providing the Rand doesn't strengthen DROOY will be great buying if gold exceeds $375 and it gets better if gold rises further. Below $340, I believe that DROOY is is serious trouble with a Rand/USD rate of 7.5 or stronger.

Just my opinion and what I use to help determine my entry and exit points for DROOY.

VT, Jims, Andrew? I thought yesterday was very bizarre.

Seems to me gold stocks, the producers anyway, are pricing in $375+ POG? And it came right from out of the blue. Either POG follows the stocks or POG will bring them back to earth. Scary. Stocks are higner now with a lower POG than just a week ago.....Not betting the farm yet.
