While gold has been disappointing this year, don’t write it off just yet. According to DoubleLine CEO Jeffrey Gundlach, as quoted by Kitco.com, “Gold has really underperformed other froth assets like bitcoin by incredible amounts, almost inconceivable amounts since that peak in gold above $2,000,” adding, “Gold is very likely to bounce because the selloff has been pretty powerful. Long-term gold is pretty interesting. Our model shows that gold is at fair value at $1,761. We don't think the decline in gold is likely to continue." That could be great news for Stevens Gold Nevada Inc. (CSE:SG)(OTC:STVGF), Barrick Gold Corp. (NYSE:GOLD)(TSX:ABX), Iamgold Corp. (NYSE:IAG), Equinox Gold Corp. (NYSE:EQX), and Newmont Corporation (NYSE:NEM)(TSX:NGT).

In addition, the gold sector is seeing a good deal of M&A activity this year. According to Mining.com, “2021 could see a lot of merger-and-acquisition (M&A) activity in British Columbia’s mining sector, especially in gold.” For example, Newmont just announced it will acquire all of the shares it doesn’t already own in GT Gold in a cash deal.

There’s also been exciting gold property developments. Look at Stevens Gold Nevada Inc.(CSE:SG)(OTC:STVGF) for example, which just announced that it will be deploying a crew of three geological technicians to Section 20 of its Millennium Gold property to undertake a soil geochemical survey. Gold mineralization is exposed at surface and in drill core in the form of low sulphidation epithermal mineralization and attendant alteration hosted by subaerially deposited volcanic rocks. Extensions of known gold zones are covered by overburden and can be an impediment to ongoing exploration.

The new sampling program will focus on an area of Section 20 where a previous Mobile Metal Ions soil survey in 2007 defined multi-sample ovoid and circular gold geochemical anomalies from widely spaced samples. High-contrast gold responses of up to 225 times background were defined by this survey defining an anomalous area of approximately 1 square kilometer. The new survey will reduce the sample spacing to provide focus for further prospecting, geophysical surveys and drilling.

Analyses will be undertaken at the Vancouver (B.C., Canada) laboratories of SGS Mineral Services. Assay results will be released as they are received.
