N. Y.-Cable advices from Lon
don state that gold in the mar
ket is quoted 114 shillings, 6
pence, per ounce. As the i or
mal price is 84 shillings, 11 5-11
pence per fine ounce, this quo
tation represents a premium of
approximately 34%.
This high price for the yellow
metal enables South African
goid-mining companies to work
profitably a great deal of low
grade ore that w as not available
at, low levels.
This situation shouid mean
that these South African com
panies, especially Rand mines,
Inc., at present prices for gold
seould show a consideiably in
creased production over 1918
and therefore larger profits
than indicated by the premium
on gold alone.
