Q2 EBITDA of US101.6 Mln up 51% on Q1 2016. Cash cost of production between US539 and US550 previously US680. Production Guidance of 520k and 540k previously 470k Q2 gold production 12% higher than q1 2016. Great results
Parliament approved Law 32. It now awaits the appeal ruling in the SCC but before that the commissionaires get to submit a report. Personally, I think they will shelve the whole thing. Just the threat of Law 32 is enough to stop any further action and all current cases have been suspended pending final ruling from the SCC so its as effective as if it were in play.
Anyone know what the latest is regarding Law32/2014? Is it waiting for SCC approval or has it been defeated in parliament?

"In light of the UK voting for a Brexit, we expect gold to provide a haven for investors. Coupled with sterling weakness, we see upgrades likely for all gold producers in the near term. We appreciate Centamin has been a very strong performer so far in 2016 on solid production growth and a clear business plan to increase production to above 500koz in the near future. Alongside Randgold and Acacia, Centamin is well represented in portfolios seeking gold exposure. We now anticipate gold to be well supported in the near term and along with weaker sterling, we believe further strength is likely along with stable growth in production, an improving cost profile, a solid balance sheet and attractive free cash flow yields, which serve to provide us with longer term optimism. We believe that Centamin remains a credible acquisition target and an eventual resolution to the legal challenges may be the catalyst for further interest in this regard."

Not true. Profit projection is based on a fixed $1200 cost but profit sharing is purely based on total realised profit.
Thanks shugg1e, 75p it is.
You people are so out of the loop its hilarious. CC was today and has been adjourned to June 7th. Not that any of you will see this.. hahaha!
Siko please confirm if today is the date of final hearing
All the sore losers who didn't buy at 62p and then could sell at 90+p are now going to come back and say "SEE! ITS FALLING!" and get suckered out again waiting for a much lower level that will never arrive.
Bull trap. $1180-1190 target
... PJ and company in ... 3.... 2.... 1....
Gold doing well tonight, but non farm payrolls tomorrow, so we will see ,what crafty tricks the FED are going to use. Or could it be end of the line for paper gold, and inflated currencies?
Well due to internet "Problems " from the UK . Good ol DTM is the only site available, tonight."" Surprised "" Goldman lack of sacks, made their turn around to buy gold. Either very suspicious or ,they see a crash coming sooner than later. That would make their cred, look really good for business, lol
LOL! Where are all the punters? I suppose the iii board will become busy again when the price starts falling and all the "I told you so" punters return, only to be hoodwinked once again.
