Ann: Half Year Results Summary, page-14

Bitcoin was good while it lasted as well but I didn't put a single penny into it because it didn't make sense.

I say leave the bubble stocks to the bankster funds who use them to rake fees out of the market and palm off stock to unsuspecting superannuation managers in cosy backroom deals etc etc (other people's money transactions). If it doesn't make sense it doesn't make sense, eventually reality bites, like it did with NCM when it went from $40 to $7. Market just loves paying some stocks forward and holding others down, Eventually the money swings fast and the bagholders are those who haven't being paying attention to fundamentals. RSG is currently deep into a large development phase and early ramp up of its major asset and its group AISC was lower than NST's for the Dec quarter. Many of NST's mines in the Dec quarter, by contrast,were running near their long run steady state production levels, some at "over clocked" levels IMO. NST is no longer a low cost producer. Half year AISC A$1,295, Pogo AISC A$1,586, Kalgoorlie operations AISC A$1,363. But you don't get to read that in the Half Year Summary announcement. Remember only a little over two months ago the A$ gold price was trading around A$1,660. Esh
