Cycle watchers are predicting gold prices to rise over the next 2-3 weeks. If so than Centamin could reach 70p, or even higher. After that they're predicting gold will drift lower and maybe reach a new (and final) low. I've been holding/accumulating since 2012 and Centamin is my best performing stock. I'm tempted to sell on this rise and buy back in the summer but .....
Waited too long on this share, 3 years to be exact now the party is over at UTOG...
I suspect gold will hit at least $1080 this summer and maybe $1030. If it drops below $1030, then all bets are off for the real bottom. CEY like to trade sideways at best but will probably dip into the high 30s. Sorry to be so pessimistic.
Funny seeing the two different views from the two boards right next to each other.
Centamin plc ("Centamin" or "the Company") (LSE:CEY, TSX:CEE) Q1 2015 Preliminary Production Results Centamin is pleased to announce preliminary production results for the quarter ended 31 March 2015 from its Sukari Gold Mine ("Sukari") in Egypt. Total gold production for the quarter was 108,233 ounces, a 46% increase on Q1 2014 and 16% lower than Q4 2014. Full year 2015 guidance remains at 420,000 ounces. Quarterly throughput at the process plant was 2,478kt, a 5% decrease on Q4 2014, as the new SAG mill reline was brought forward this quarter and fitted with improved design lifters and grates. Open pit total material movement increased 16% on the previous quarter, to 15,996kt. Open pit ore production decreased on Q4 2014 by 38% to 2,562kt and lower average grades mined in the first quarter as expected. The run of mine ore stockpile balance increased by 33kt to 2,204kt at the end of the period. The underground operation delivered 264kt of ore, a 7% decrease on Q4 2014 with average grades remaining consistent and in line with the underground mining plan. Q1 2015 (estimate) Q4 2014 Q1 2014 Total Material Movement - Open Pit (kt) 15,996 13,804 9,749 Open Pit Ore Production (kt) 2,562 4,123 2,325 Underground Ore Production (kt) 264 284 206 Process Plant Throughput (kt) 2,478 2,597 1,486 Process Plant Productivity (tph) 1,286 1,330 745 Gold Produced (oz) 108,233 128,115 74,241 Andrew Pardey, CEO of Centamin, commented: "As foreshadowed in previous announcements, a reduction in quarterly production rates was expected during the first half of 2015 as mining progresses through the upper portions of the next stage of open pit development. Plant productivity for the quarter remained at around the 10Mtpa nameplate capacity rate and there remains scope for further increases in throughput during the coming quarters as optimisation continues. The operation is well placed to meet our full year forecast of 420,000 ounces as open pit grades are scheduled to progressively increase to the reserve average in the second half of the year, when production is expected to return to annualised rates exceeding 450,000 ounces."
If I recall correctly the SCC meets and makes ruling on the second Saturday of each month. April 11th is the next chance for a ruling on whether Law 32 is constitutional.
trouble with cey is as soon as one problem is resolved another potential one appears.Not the fault of the company,just where its geografically located, ie politics. Burkino Faso does not enthrall me either.
Just noted the Van Eck Associates Corporation has shed about 1000,000 shares
