IAMGOLD reserves down 7%, resources up 16% in annual update

IAMGOLD released their year-end reserve and resource statement. Proven and Probable reserves dropped 7% to 9.9 million ounces, largely due to depletion at Côté and Essakane. Basically, they mined a good chunk of it out. On the positive side, Measured and Indicated resources increased 16% to 31 million ounces. This was driven by converting resources at Gosselin and adding deposits from the Northern Superior deal. They also bumped up their gold price assumptions, using $2,000 per ounce for reserves at Westwood and Essakane, and $1,700 for Côté. Management noted that 80% of their resources are now in Canada. They are also planning a $24 million exploration program at the Nelligan complex this year.

it is good to see iamgold growing their measured resources so much. converting those to reserves will be the next big step for them.
