I think this is the 3rd year they have paid the 3c dividend, and with the growing volumes mined, it would indicate some reliability in the dividend going forward. I think the dividend of BCI has been a major plus for that company, so it can only be a plus for AGO. The 3% yield is a real bonus on such a growth stock.
Also, the comments regarding infrastructure negotiations sound like they are in the final stages - sounds like they have agreed on the price and are now focussed on service levels and longer term aspects. This should send a positive signal to the market.
All sounds good to me - lets see what the market says today!
