Five Top Ways to Trade Soaring Gold Prices

January 17, 2023 - Baystreet.ca


Gold prices are quickly nearing $2,000 again. At current pace, we wouldn’t be shocked to see $2,500 before the first half of the year is over. All thanks to a softer U.S. dollar, and expectations the Federal Reserve will slow the pace of interest rate hikes. “Fed remains the focus. The market is of the view that the Fed’s rate-hike cycle is slowing and may come to an end soon, which is helping gold,” said Ilya Spivak, head of global macro at Tastylive, as quoted by CNBC. “Prices are seeing good support around the $1,900-$1,920 levels. The next key level of resistance will be around $1,970.” That’s all great news for Calibre Mining Corp. (TSX: CXB) (OTCQX: CXBMF), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE: GOLD) (TSX: ABX), Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM) (TSX: NGT), B2Gold Corp. (TSX: BTO) (NYSE: BTG), and Equinox Gold Corp. (TSX: EQX) (NYSE: EQX).

Calibre Mining Corp. announced assay results from the 2022 discovery and resource expansion drill program at its 100% owned Pan Mine (“Pan”), located in the prolific Battle Mountain – Eureka gold trend, Nevada. Initial results at the new Coyote target, which had never been drill tested, located approximately 3 km south southwest of the Pan open pit demonstrate the exploration and discovery potential on the property. Coyote was initially identified through surface geochemistry and rock chip sampling combined with an evolving structural geological interpretation. In addition, several results, as outlined below, also indicate the potential for resource expansion while focusing on the conversion of known zones of mineralization. During 2023, Calibre will advance a 38,400 metre drill program in Nevada including 28,000 metres at Pan focusing on new targets and the expansion of known resources.

Highlights from the New Coyote Pan South discovery include:

Coyote Target

- 1.36 g/t Au over 13.7 metres including 2.78 g/t Au over 4.6 metres in Hole PR22-238;

- 0.61 g/t Au over 18.3 metres in Hole PR22-237;

- Initial results located approximately 3 km south of the Pan South open pit;

- Open for expansion

Highlights from the Pan resource expansion and conversion program within the open pit operation include:

North Dynamite

- 0.54 g/t Au over 74.7 metres in Hole PR22-211; 0.56 g/t Au over 21.3 metres in Hole PR22-209;

- 0.47 g/t Au over 18.3 metres in Hole PR22-210; 1.67 g/t Au over 12.2 metres including 2.12 g/t Au over 9.1 metres in Hole PR22-224;

- 0.41 g/t Au over 10.7 metres in Hole PR22-228;

- 0.67 g/t Au over 22.9 metres including 1.14 g/t Au over 9.1 metres in Hole PR22-190;

- Intercepts extend mineralization down-dip and along strike, and are open for further expansion

Syncline Target

- 1.05 g/t Au over 15.2 metres including 2.12 g/t over 3.0 metres and 1.21 g/t over 6.1 metres in Hole PR22-218;

- 0.67 g/t Au over 7.6 metres in Hole PR22-219;

- Deeper mineralization north of Syncline will be evaluated considering newly interpreted stratigraphy

Orpiment Alley Target

- 0.53 g/t Au over 15.2 metres in Hole PR22-182;

- With favorable mineralogy and trace element geochemistry at depth, Orpiment Alley remains the primary target of a deep, sulfide feeder system at Pan

Benji Target

- 0.45 g/t Au over 18.3 metres in Hole PR22-203; 0.84 g/t Au over 22.1 metres in Hole PC22-017

Note: All holes were drilled at angles of -45 to -90 degrees at azimuths designed to intersect targeted structures as nearly as possible to perpendicular when possible. Some drill holes and intercepts reported here did not cross mineralization perpendicularly, and do not represent exact ‘true widths.

Darren Hall, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Calibre stated: “The initial drill results located outside the Pan operating area are encouraging given this target has never been drilled. Calibre’s priority in 2023 will shift to these new targets with a focus on discovery drilling within the mineral concessions at Pan and Gold Rock.”

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related management’s discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 will be available for download on SEDAR. Greg Smith, President and CEO of Equinox Gold, commented: “As expected, gold production in the third quarter increased meaningfully from production in the second and first quarters. Costs, however, were higher than expected as the result of persistent global inflationary pressures coupled with lower than planned production. We are reviewing mine plans across the portfolio with a focus on improving productivity while managing costs. Based on production to date, we expect full-year production to be approximately 540,000 ounces of gold and costs to exceed the upper end of guidance by approximately five percent.
