Investment case[hhmc]

The gold sector is running: African peers are being priced (albeit at a significant discount to their Australian peers) at an average EV:Resource ounce of $90/oz. With results supporting an upgraded Resource of 3moz later this H, TIEs inventories support a Valuation closer to $0.73/ sh. Furthermore, strengthening A$ may see the valuation gap between domestic and offshore producers narrow.
