De Grey Mining with early and very impressive drill results at their Hemi prospect discovered in December. Stock was halted 2 days ago pending this news and has traded up 106% on huge volume in Australia. These results are only the first 7 of 57 holes with assays pending on 2 sections 640m apart that are related to the same orebody.

Section A highlights:
24m @ 7.5g/t incl 18m @8.6 g/t
49m @ 3.7g/t incl 18m @6.6 g/t
36m @ 4.0g/t incl 11m @ 8.9 g/t

Section B highlights:
24m @ 4.2g/t incl 10m @ 7.4 g/t
15m @ 2.5g/t
21m @ 2.5g/t

All holes are shallow (Section A defined to 100m at depth and Section B defined to 60m at depth) and are open at depth and in all directions indicating a potentially major new gold discovery with many assays pending.

De Grey Mining (DEG Australia, DGMLF on OTC) was up over 100% yesterday and finished up another 42% today in Australia. That should carry through on the OTC today.

De Grey
Too hot?

#1521

Yeah, probably. They do have more assays expected next week and all quarter. De Grey is definitely hot right now, but I wouldn’t be taking a position after 2 big days. A pullback seems inevitable.

Gold should benefit. Things are going to get ugly. So far, massive effort by central banks etc to prop up markets but that will only work so long. Most major sea ports in China are not operating currently with estimates as high as 90% of economic activity halted in China. Could be many months before China is anywhere close to normal. This will slash profits world-wide saying nothing about the possibility that other countries get infected just as bad as China. There is a serious case of denial going on. Those that are in Dow/S & P stocks should get out while they can.

“There is a serious case of denial going on”. Not only denial but a lot of misinformation from the Chinese. Infections are most likely a minimum of 3 times more than being reported. The truth will come out in dribs and drabs but most assuredly our administration won’t report the worst of it for fear of a market crash which could be a disaster for Trump.

The internet there has now been basically shutoff. 60% of Chinese normally have access to the internet. The current level of internet traffic in China is now the same as Denmark per web traffic monitoring sites. CCP is doing everything they can to silence things at the moment so indeed hard to figure out what is happening. All the numbers provided so far have been debunked; basically fiction. Based on body counting that is going on from some reporters on the ground at the 49 crematoriums in the Wuhan area that are running 24/7; at least 1200/day are being burned there for the last 17 days…i.e over 50,000 dead.

De Grey Mining up another 20% this morning.

Looking for more assays this week. Sprott will be commenting on De Grey this Friday as part of his Sprott Money weekly wrapup.

After hours De Grey announces “Hemi gold prospect provides more positive results for De Grey Mining”

Additional thick and high-grade gold mineralisation intersected on Section A consolidates a significant 30m wide gold zone to 130m depth, open in all directions.

44m @ 5.1g/t Au from 40m in BWAC320, including 13m @ 8.8g/t
46m @ 6.6g/t Au from 92m in BWAC321, including 21m @ 8.3g/t

Results correlate strongly with previously announced results on Feb 2020 including:
24m @ 7.5g/t Au from 126m in BWAC315, including 18m @ 8.6g/t (EOH)
49m @ 3.7g/t Au from 65m in BWAC309, including 18m @ 6.6g/t
36m @ 4.0g/t from 39m in BWAC245, including 11m @ 8.9g/t

Technical Director, Andy Beckwith, commented:

“These are stunning results - high grade, thick and consistent. Clearly, drilling below this zone and the mineraliszation on Section B are two key high priority RC targets. We are looking forward to receiving the remaining aircore drilling results and re-commencing drilling activiities now the cyclone has dissipated.”

Northern Dynasty is advancing the world-class Pebble Project in Alaska towards permitting and development.

Northern Dynasty has been on again the last couple of years- off again, mostly due to local opposition.
Sure looks to be on again with recent preliminary environmental permitting news:

Northern Dynasty: US Army Corps of Engineers shares preliminary Final EIS with cooperating agencies

Key federal permitting document finds Pebble will protect fishery & water resources of southwest Alaska

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 12, 2020 / Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (TSX:NDM)(NYSE American:NAK) (“Northern Dynasty” or the “Company”) reports the US Army Corps of Engineers has distributed a preliminary version of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (“EIS”) for southwest Alaska’s Pebble Project to federal, state and local cooperating agencies.

While as yet a deliberative document, and hence not final, the preliminary Final EIS portrays a mine development project that will co-exist with the fisheries and water resources of Bristol Bay, while making a substantial positive contribution to the socioeconomic health and well-being of local communities.

A presidential change(if there is a presidential change) next year probably will end the project indefinitely but it has somehow survived a lot of abuse so far. Don’t follow it closely anymore but recall they lost their major mining partners. My guess, some very limited underground portion of it may eventually happen.

Due to lack of proper media coverage in China, I found that Twitter of all places is giving a far more accurate accounting on what is going on. (Search on #covid19 then hit latest tab), or the following specific accounts: @COVID19__News, @PneumoniaWuhan, @disclosetv, @leaksit, @COVID19Info, @chaddha_lal, @IsChinar, @ContagionTrack, , @DrEricDing) On youtube try: https://www.youtube.com/user/MEDCRAMvideos or this guy who is a little over the top but does put out a lot of factual articles: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCD2-QVBQi48RRQTD4Jhxu8w Note-if you spend a few hours going through all the information, be careful you don’t develop PTSD. (Example-rumor in China that dogs carry the virus-result thousands of dogs being beaten to death with horrifying videos documenting it!) Situation in China is dire. At a minimum, it will likely spread easier than HIN1 flu virus which infected 10 to 20% of the world’s population in only a year. Closer to home, not sure how much longer the markets will remain propped up.

De Grey Mining up another 20% today. I sold my position at .133 for like a $50 profit. Considering I was down over 75% on it for most of the year (with little reason to average down on), I’m ecstatic to get my investment back.

Now, the newly discovered Hemi prospect in the Pilbara Australia region is very interesting and if I had a lower cost basis, I’d consider holding longer for drill results and an initial resource estimation which should be out in the next week or two. But after the stock has more than quadrupled in a couple weeks, it is prudent to take my money off the table and be happy I made it back to green.

I’ll continue watching De Grey though because they seem to have quite a deposit at Hemi.

Gold is up about $50 an oz. over the last 6 months but the stocks that make up the NUGT etf are down a third. . . . from $45 to $30. How disappointing is that??? And, despite gold being up $30 an oz. over the last 7 trading days NUGT hasn’t moved a lick. This is really strange. NUGT is trading like it’s going to break big some time next week… . but which way.?? If anyone has any insight on what’s going on please let me know. :sweat_smile::sweat_smile::sweat_smile:

#1537

If you’re beholden to trading an etf that follows miners instead of gold then I don’t have any answers, but if you want an etf that follows the movement of gold then you’d be better off looking at something like GLD, IAU, SGOL, or DGL. These are etf’s that actually move with the price of gold, not the miners.

As for the gold chart, I would be tentative about buying right now as the weekly interval gold chart looks overbought to me, with bearish divergence on the RSI. Gold has found resistance over the past 6 weeks at the 1580 - 1600 level, which is the 62% retracement of its all-time high of 1923. If this resistance holds, a shallow pullback could take it to the 1520’s, and a deep one could bring it back to between 1340 and 1400.
