The Financial Post reports in its Wednesday, May 14, edition that since gold prices declined last year, the mantra among gold miners has been growing free cash flow. The Post's Peter Koven writes in the Trading Desk column that gold miners believe that is the key to winning back investors. With that in mind, analysts at TD Securities ranked the gold miners based on expected 2015 free cash-flow yield at an assumed gold price of $1,250 (U.S.) an ounce. Mr. Koven says it is an interesting list, as the firms at the top and bottom are an equal mix of small, medium and large producers. On this metric, no one class of companies appears to be in or out of favour. The most attractive FCF yield belongs to Lake Shore Gold at 19.4 per cent (after sustaining capital spending, but not total capital spending). That is followed by Kinross Gold (10.2 per cent), Timmins Gold (8.6 per cent) and New Gold (8.5 per cent). The bottom three are AuRico Gold (1.4 per cent), Franco-Nevada (4 per cent) and Goldcorp (4.1 per cent). After adjusting for total capital spending, the analysts found Lake Shore still looks the most attractive at 18.8-per-cent FCF yield. The worst yield belongs to Alamos Gold at negative 5.9 per cent

That is just one of a string of good news over the last few mths.  for Lakeshore and yet the mkt. does not  give it the rewards it deserves. What is it going to take to attract the mkt. to this co. and give it the LOVE it deserves ? UNBELIEVABLE

Stocks & anticipation are a hard & difficult mix, perhaps that's what draws most of us to the game. Believing in what you know (research done on co.) location, people involved (management), equip. est. resource, with exploration drilling upgrades to operations, & finally fine tuning the whole process, resulting in reduction of operational cost which leads straight to quicker "

You ask what it will take....well most everyone is making money on other equities. Gold is out of favour as we all well know. Gold miners especially LSG are getting their house in order. One day the "other" equities will have exhausted their attractivness (overpriced SP) and investors will start looking around. Perhaps gold will look attractive or rather the gold stocks. I feel LSG will

At first glance when I posted the FP /TD rating I just noticed that LSG was ahead of the pack, looking closer at the stated ratings, no one comes even close to their percentile, in fact, the whole pack is a very distant second Oh hum, just another plus
