JOHANNESBURG Feb 15 (Reuters) – World gold prices
could “easily poke through $2,000” an ounce this year, AngloGold
Ashanti chief executive Mark Cutifani said on
Wednesday.
In a conference call with reporters after the release of
fourth quarter earnings, which fell far below expectations,
Cutifani said he saw the price of bullion averaging
$1,700-$1,850 throughout 2012.
