MT Newswires Live01-17

Stifel Canada on Friday maintained its buy rating on the shares of Kinross Gold (K.TO, KGC) and its C$45.00 price target after the company said it will go ahead with three new mining projects.

"Kinross announced that it is proceeding with the construction of three organic growth projects: Round Mountain Phase X and Bald Mountain Redbird 2 in Nevada, and the Kettle River-Curlew project in Washington State. Impact: Positive: Projects are expected to contribute significantly to Kinross' U.S. production profile and maintaining its GEO production rate of 2.0Moz/year into next decade, with expected GEO production of 400Koz/year between 2029-2031 and a total of 3.0Moz between 2028-2038 based on the initial mine plan inventories. Round Mountain is our preferred project update with 40% IRR at $3,200/oz gold (67% at $4,300/oz) with significant potential for both proximal growth and extension of the resource down-dip as demonstrated by existing intercepts outside of the initial reserve and resource. Combined NPV (all three projects) at $3,2000/oz of $2.056Bln comprises an NPV/Capex ratio of 2.6x at Round Mountain, 1.1x at Curlew, and 1.0x at Redbird 2," analyst Ralph Profiti wrote.
