Rising prices and improved production should support Chinese gold miners' financial performance and credit profiles in the next two years, S&P Global Ratings said in a Tuesday release.
The rated mining companies' robust operating cash flow should also serve as a cushion, with S&P expecting them to tolerate a 20% decline in gold prices from the base case.
The companies will need to increase their capital expenditures to cover their expansion targets, but S&P sees them practicing financial discipline and flexible time goals even with the large investments.
The rated miners include Shandong Gold Mining (HKG:1787, SHA:600547) parent Shandong Gold Group, Zhaojin Mining Industry (HKG:1818), and Zijin Mining Group (SHA:601899, HKG:2899).
