Hedge was put in place:
• Gold price protection programme implemented for the twelve months to June 2024, with the purchase of put
options for 240,000 ounces of gold at a strike price of US$1,900/oz
Gold was about 1,950 at the start.
Dropped to about 1,820 low on 4th Oct (eveyone was praising Horgan at this point)
Gold rose back to 1,900 and above from around mid October
You can do do the maths on the cost of the hedge against oz sold.
As I said earlier - it was needed due to the company position at this point.
