New Gold Inc has hedged nearly all of its remaining 2016 gold production to ensure cash flow for its Rainy River project, the company said, an unusually large amount for a miner after bullion made its biggest rally in 4-1/2 years.
The miner said on Tuesday that it hedged 270,000 oz of gold for the remaining nine months of the year through options contracts at a cost of $2 million, starting in April, giving them a minimum price of $1,200 an ounce and maximum at $1,400 an ounce.
That breaks down to 30,000 ounces each month and accounts for 90-100 percent of New Gold’s production forecast.
