By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., Jan. 30 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $6.16 million of trigger phoenix autocallable notes due Jan. 31, 2018 linked to the shares of Market Vectors Gold Miners exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If Market Vectors Gold Miners stock closes at or above the trigger price – 55% of the initial share price – on a quarterly observation date, the issuer will pay a contingent coupon for that quarter at the rate of 7.1%. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid that quarter.
