Harmony mulls dividends linked to gold

[miningmx.com] — HARMONY Gold may link future dividend payments to the price of gold, according to a report by Bloomberg News which cited Graham Briggs, CEO of Harmony Gold.

“It will be among a range of options,’ Briggs told Bloomberg.

This would follow a decision by Newmont Mining Corporation which in April tied dividends to average sales prices of gold, Bloomberg News said.

Gold for immediate delivery rose last month to a record $1,921 an ounce in London trading, the newswire said.
