Does Gold Miners’ Declining Production Herald Tighter Supply?

Does Gold Miners’ Declining Production Herald Tighter Supply?

Goldcorp (GG) produced 571,000 ounces of gold in the second quarter, a fall of ~10.0% YoY (year-over-year). Barrick Gold (ABX) produced ~1.07 million ounces of gold in the second quarter, reflecting a fall of ~25.0% YoY. Part of Barrick Gold’s lower production was expected due to lower ore grades, recovery at the Barrick Nevada oxide mill, and scheduled maintenance shutdowns at the Barrick Nevada and Pueblo Viejo autoclaves.
