Gold prices are rising as the USD weakens, and this helps KNT. They continue to expand the mine they bought from Barrick 2 years ago, aiming for full production in a couple of years. They are exploring in Papua New Guinea without issue. Their production is high-grade and low cost. They trade at a discount to peers.
(Analysts’ price target is $34.50)
