Wheaton Precious Metals (NYSE:WPM) provides investors a unique way to invest in gold and silver without taking on the day-to-day risks of mining. That's a key benefit of the precious metals streaming business model. However, this doesn't mean you get to avoid all of the risks of mining, and Wheaton's investment in this Barrick Gold (NYSE:ABX) mine is the perfect example of what can go wrong. Here's a quick rundown on why Wheaton's time might be running out on this large mine investment.
Streaming vs miningWheaton is a streaming and royalty company. Essentially that means it provides miners cash up front for the right to buy silver and gold at reduced rates in the future. Streaming deals are generally tied to a specific mine investment, often one in the development stage. Miners use the cash to build such mines, or to expand existing assets or pay down debt, and Wheaton gets to benefit from locked-in low prices for the gold and silver it buys, which provides it with wide margins in both good markets and bad.
