LONDON (Commodity Online): Barclays Capital looks for continued but modest growth in global gold supply from mines. In a daily research note, they note that the world’s largest producer, Barrick Gold Corp., on Thursday reported that fourth-quarter output was up year-on-year but dipped marginally for full-year 2011.
“Despite gold prices averaging higher over the past 10 years, global gold production has grown at a subdued rate. We continue to expect supply to grow this year, albeit modestly,” Barclays concluded.
