sinbob,
Good stuff as usual. Keep it coming. Sounds like no one really knows how Barrick is dealing with their hedges. They had contracts to deliver gold, but it sounds like they have convinced at least a few suckers to take paper instead. And how much of their hedges have they already dealt with, and how much to go? It should get interesting- an awful lot of things seem to be coming together at the same time.
