IAMGOLD CEO Steve Letwin tells Kitco News that although he is excited about gold’s recent rally, he is not using it as his ‘hope strategy’ for the mid-tier mining company. He will be focused on bringing down costs, he told Daniela Cambone at the BMO Metals & Mining Conference in Florida. ‘We’re going to try to get [AISC] down to $1000,’ he added. Letwin seems more optimistic on gold prices, noting that if the metal breaches $1,275 an ounce, it could easily move to $1400.
