AUY, Yamana Gold: A mid-tier producer primarily focused in South America with mines in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, and Chile. It has good prospects for increasing production, but that is probably dependent on higher gold prices. 1.2m oz 2012 production 1.75m oz. 2015 production estimate 1246 AUY all-in production cost for 2012, in $/oz. 1082 GG 1057 AGI 1295 NEM 1122 EGO debt LT 860M$ cash 350M$ dividend: $0.26/y = 2.7% yield at today's price stock: $3 at 2008 low to $20 at 2012 high, now $10. Like all the gold miners, the stock continues to find resistance at the 50d moving average. longrundata.com seekingalpha.com seekingalpha.com seekingalpha.com conclusion: AUY's balance sheet, and production costs are not in the top rank among gold/silver miners. Even with its growth prospects, I'd rather own GG or EGO.
