Gold Recently Posted Its Biggest Weekly Gain Since The Start Of 2021

Palm Beach, FL – May 11, 2021-  The Pandemic has not just harmed humans, it has shred economies around the world, but as each country tries to heal their economy there are unintended results. For instance, in the US, high inflation as a result of large government initiatives… drives the price of precious metals up and up. A December article by metals watchers, FXEmpire said that the collapsing dollar could push gold to $2300 by May 2021. They said that: “The dollar is in the middle of a significant devaluation. The current breakdown could extend into Q2 2021 before the next rebound. We expect sharply higher precious metals prices as a result, with silver and platinum taking the lead… We are in a similar setup to the post-trendline breakdown of gold in 2002/2003. Consequently, (we) believe the dollar is on the verge of an accelerated decline towards 80. The weakening dollar should push gold higher into April/May 2021 before the next 6-month cycle correction.”  Another industry insider, Kitco.com said: “Gold is looking to post its biggest weekly gain since the start of the year as prices crack through $1,800 and set sights on $1,850 an ounce. Analysts are not even ruling out $1,900 for next week, as they cite inflation fears and weaker U.S. dollar. At one point, gold was up more than $70 on the week on Friday, trading above $1,840 an ounce. This strength comes after more than two months of consolidation below the $1,800 level. The final push higher came as the U.S. posted much weaker-than-expected employment data. The U.S. saw only 266,000 jobs created in April. And even though that the number is still healthy, markets were expecting to see one million jobs. The disappointment was doubled when the March figures were revised from 916,000 to 770,000.”     Active mining stocks mentioned in today’s commentary include:  Ridgestone Mining Inc. (OTCQB: RIGMF) (TSX-V: RMI), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:GOLD) (TSX:ABX), YAMANA GOLD INC. (NYSE:AUY) (TSX:YRI), Kirkland Lake Gold Ltd. (NYSE:KL) (TSX:KL), Gold Fields Limited (NYSE: GFI).

 

The Kitco.com article continued: “What we’ve seen is a very significant disappointment. The economy is counting to recover, but it looks like the speed of the recovery, at least on the employment side, may not be as robust as people have hoped for,” TD Securities head of global strategy Bart Melek told Kitco News.  This has significant implications when it comes to monetary policy expectations. “That means the Fed will stay true to its words that they will keep the easy monetary policy until they reach maximum employment. It looks like the U.S. is going to have unemployment issues for a while,” Melek pointed out.”

 

Ridgestone Mining Inc. (TSX-V: RMI) (OTCQB: RIGMF) (FSE: 4U5) BREAKING NEWSRIDGESTONE RELEASES MAIDEN MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE AT GUADALUPE Y CALVO, MEXICO  Ridgestone Mining (“Ridgestone”) is pleased to announce a maiden National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) Mineral Resource Estimate for it’s Guadalupe y Calvo (“GyC”) gold-silver project in Chihuahua, Mexico. The maiden mineral resource was estimated for two principal mineralized structures, the Rosario and Nankin veins, captured within a combined pit-constrained and underground mineral resource model. Mineralization at GyC remains open for expansion both along strike and down-dip at depth. The GyC project is comprised of 20 square kilometres. Ridgestone entered into an option agreement with Endeavour Silver in December 2020 to acquire a 100% interest in the property.

 

Highlights:

  • Indicated Mineral Resource: 356,000 ounces of gold-equivalent at an average grade of 72 g/t AuEq
  • Inferred Mineral Resource: 460,000 ounces of gold-equivalent at an average grade of 65 g/t AuEq

 

* Mineral Resource Estimate for a combined pit constrained and underground scenario at a cut-off grade of 0.27 g/t AuEq in-pit and 1.33 g/t AuEq underground

 

“We are very pleased with this significant initial mineral resource estimate” commented Jonathan George, CEO “which is a material milestone for any junior exploration company and provides a solid foundation as we move forward to expand the resource both along strike and at depth. We are currently finalizing plans for an upcoming drill program which is planned for this fall after the rainy season. We believe this year will be an exciting and transformational year for the Company as we continue to concurrently advance our Rebeico copper-gold project in conjunction with our GyC gold-silver project.”

 

The estimate was completed by Marc Jutras, P.Eng., M.A.Sc. of Ginto Consulting Inc. and complies with National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) and guidelines developed in 2014 by the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (“CIM”). Mr. Jutras is a registered professional engineer in the provinces of British Columbia, Quebec and Newfoundland and is independent of Ridgestone.  In accordance with NI 43-101 a Technical report will be filed on SEDAR within 45 days of this release.  CONTINUED….   Read this full release more news for Ridgestone Mining by visitinghttps://www.financialnewsmedia.com/news-rmi/

Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:GOLD) (TSX:ABX) recently reported its results for the first quarter of 2021, noting that with gold and copper production on plan, it was well positioned to achieve its annual guidance.  Production in the latter half of the year is expected to be higher than the first, mainly due to mine sequencing at Nevada Gold Mines, the commissioning of the new leach pad facility at Veladero in Argentina, the ramp-up of underground mining at Bulyanhulu and higher anticipated grades at Lumwana in Zambia.

 

Barrick’s Tier One gold mines all delivered strong financial performances in Q1 while revenue from its copper mines rose by 31% due to higher copper prices.
