Its a 20 acre placer claim .  Its in an area called coolgardie north of Barstow  Ill be at Irwin Rd and Cooper city road at 6 AM.  Recommend a high clearance vehicle. Two wheel drive ok we have chains HA HA  Ill be in a white F-250 4X4 There is a BLM Bureau of land management kiosk.  ( just a map board )  

Bring shade!!   lots of water ( You can never have enough water)  Bring any dry type mining equipment you want.  If you have snake guards that's a good idea too.  I can leave GPS coordinates at kiosk if you run late.   CELL PHONES DO NOT WORK   once you get up the hill.

I carry a Garmin In Reach satellite messaging device for emergencies.   Be careful and see what you can find!

 

 

There is a club next to us that will have a few people there this weekend but only the die hards go out in this heat. Im packing up at 1:30 right before peak heat.  Will be going to Northern CA River mining in a month or two. We'll be camping on that trip

HA HA HA HA!!

I've been seeing diamondbacks sidewinders and green Mojave rattlers every trip this year.

The diamondbacks are a bit aggressive and will give little warning of a strike.

The sidewinders like to bury themselves in the sandy washes ( easy to step on one ) they are also extremely fast!!!

The Mojaves have the most toxic venom especially the younger ones. 

 

And they are using their rattles

My mind is going nuts thinking about this article. We all know what the Petro Dollar is and how it helped usher in about 40 years of prosperity for the US as other countries had to buy their oil in US dollars. Since other Nations had to keep a rather large sum of US Dollars on had to purchase their oil the US became the de facto main Reserve Currency of the World.  Our Financial System became the safe haven for other Countries whenever there was a downturn in world business like the Iraq War, the Financial Meltdown in 08 and now Coronavirus!!!!   

 

Are we getting ready to return to the Gold Standard and are we creating a Gold Standard Dollar similar to what we have with the Petro Dollar. I’m probably wrong but something big and very exciting is coming down the pike.  

 

I thought Hong Kong was on the list of 15! I need to apologize cuz on another article i said Hong Kong was a swap line country. I like articles like this. Thanks.

 

Instead of saying Bank of Canada or the other 14 open swap line banks, just insert FED digitizes money and sends it to these countries where the debt never gets paid because it is gets rolled over and over (katusa capital is where i got this info)

 

So when you read an article about the ECB printing money,  the headline can also more accurately read, "The Bank of England gets money from Fed).

 

My thought is you do not want US dollars or mining stocks in the countries that do not have swap lines. The guy mentions Mexico nationalizing corporations...well YES it is def possible however, it won't be until after a crash/reset/transition. Mexico or Canada any of them can nationalize, however, there would be another kind of warning, we would see these countries running away from the dollar, on the other hand they could be given promises from China that we don't know about, however, i think the SPIRIT of the people of these swap line countries would refuse that. 

 

In the meantime all these dollar swap countries (the 15) are US allies whether they like it or not. Cuz they are intimately tied to the dollar. 

 

I say it won't happen until the dollar explodes. So my personal estimate at least another year, not sure when but no doubt that it IS going to happen.

 

I would be holding and storing my own physical gold and silver. Because at the end of the day it is just a contract saying its yours. And contracts bungle all the time.

 

Land, Real Estate, Seeds and Breeds, Books, Medical Supplies, this will be real money when the time comes.

A surprise in the Arab arrangement ... Which countries have the most gold?

image.jpeg.a343e7570d75812aff70298ffeab4a7d.jpeg

 

16th July, 2020


World Gold Council data, released in July, show that the United States continues to top the list of countries with the most precious metal reserves, far ahead of its closest competitors.

The data available through the Council's website indicates the continued growth of the Russian Central Bank's possession of gold during the past decade, as its reserves jumped from about 700 tons in 2010 to more than 2000 tons this year. The possession of gold at the US central bank accounted for 78% of the total foreign reserves, which was surpassed only by Venezuela, which recorded 82% (161 tons), but the Latin country suffers mainly a crisis in obtaining hard currency after the collapse of its oil sector and the deterioration of the economy.

At the level of the Arab countries, Saudi Arabia and Lebanon came in the list of the 20 most gold-holding countries among their foreign reserves, with the former possessing 323.1 tons of precious metal, and the second possessing 286.8 tons. Remarkably, Libya came 33rd in the world with 116.6 tons. Egypt ranked 40th with 79.5 tons of gold. While Syria ranked 60th with 25.8 tons of gold.

Ranking of the countries with the most gold ownership among their foreign reserves:

1- America 8133 tons
2- Germany 3363 tons
3- Cash Fund 2814 tons
4- Italy 2451 tons
5- France 2436 tons
6- Russia 2299 tons
7- China 1948 tons
8- Switzerland 1040 tons
9- Japan 765 tons
10- India 654 tons

 

 

I hope your right but the Fed hasn't been audited in a long time. Im with Ron Paul on this one. Audit the Fed. In the meantime people in America need to be stacking NOW

The dollar is about to collapse

%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%B1444-696x43
 
 
17:17 - 07/23/2020
 

The economist Peter Schiff expected that gold will resume its role in the global monetary system, that is, the countries of the world will return to the gold standard, and this is not strange in light of the economic crisis the world is witnessing.

Economist Peter Schiff expects the price of precious metals to rise in the near future, and said that "as the world deals with the crisis of Corona, gold and silver prices are rising, there are major movements in gold and silver coming."

Veteran speculator believes that the price of an ounce of silver can reach $ 50, but this rise will be for a short time, describing silver as "the new bitcoin."

He added, that gold is a strong competitor to the dollar when it comes to reserves, warning that "the American currency is about to collapse, and when that happens, the dollar will replace gold again."

The economist advised everyone to stay away from the dollar before it was too late, and said that "the yellow metal will resume its role in the global monetary system, as the world will return to the gold standard whether the (US) Federal Reserve wants that or not."

Gold approaches record high as it closes out extraordinary week, silver up 17.5% on week

 

(USAGOLD –7/25/2020) 

 

Gold continued its march toward record highs this morning as it closes out what’s been an extraordinary week.  It is trading at $1904 – up $15 on the day thus far and just under its record price set in 2011. Silver is up 17¢ at $22.88. On the week, gold is up 5% and silver 17.5%. This summer’s strong advance in both metals is most directly related to the economic ill-effects of the coronavirus and the stimulus/rescue programs launched by central banks and governments around the world to combat it.

“The [August] contract ended [yesterday] just short of the most-active contract settlement record of $1,891.90 from August 22, 2011,” writes MarketWatch’s Myra Saefong in her daily column on the gold market, “based on records going back to November 1984, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The record most-active intraday level stands at $1,923.70 an ounce from Sept. 6, 2011. However, the front-month July gold contract which trades on significantly lower volume, settled at $1,889.10 on Thursday, up $25, or 1.3%, for the session. That’s a record for the front-month contracts, based on data going back to 1975.”

Chart of the Day

Bar cjhart show gold's annual average price since 1970

Sources: ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (IBA), St. Louis Federal Reserve [FRED]

Chart note: This long-term chart on the annual average price of gold since 1970 dispels the notion that gold is somehow volatile or unpredictable and as a result unreliable as a long-term portfolio safe haven. To the contrary, it shows gold living up to its reputation as a reliable portfolio safe haven during times of rapidly changing economic circumstances.  The strong showing for 2019 is worth noting with the average price at $1392 per ounce. At this morning’s near record price of $1893 (not shown on chart), gold is now trading 36% higher than 2019’s average price.

Kurdistan region drafters formally approach the government by establishing a gold chamber
2020-07-25 05:22
 

Shafak News / The Goldsmiths Syndicate in the Kurdistan Region announced on Saturday that an official request was submitted to the Kurdistan Regional Government to establish a gold chamber along the lines of the Kurdistan Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

"The Kurdistan Region is not a stand-alone country, so it cannot create a gold institution like the rest of the world, but we can establish a gold room," union spokesman Hendren Worty told Shafaq News. Concerned, we are now awaiting the approval of the regional government. "

He added that "the Chamber, if established, will play an important role in supporting the economy in the face of crises and maintaining a reserve of gold that achieves significant economic benefits." He pointed out that because there is no room for goldsmiths, the region does not have any gold reserves.

Warti revealed that the union submitted a request to the governor of Erbil to establish the room, and he welcomed it and confirmed his support for it, saying, "We are awaiting the approval of the provincial council of ministers to establish the room."

For the first time since 2011 .. Gold breaks the $ 1900 barrier

For the first time since 2011 .. Gold breaks the $ 1900 barrier

Written by: mohanadat: July 25, 2020In: 

Al-Noor News / Baghdad
, gold, Friday, breached the barrier of 1900 dollars an ounce for the first time since 2011, as an American dispute exacerbated Sunn's concerns about the damage of the already staggering global economy due to the Corona virus pandemic.

And gold rose in immediate transactions 0.7 percent to $ 1899.68 an ounce by 1800 GMT, after reaching $ 1905.99, the highest level since September 2011.

Prices are destined to increase 5 percent on a weekly basis, the best performance since the week ending March 27.

And US gold futures contracts were settled 0.4 percent higher at 1897.5.

For other precious metals, silver fell 0.2 percent to $ 22.67 an ounce, but has risen nearly 17 percent since the start of the week, the best weekly performance since 1987, supported by hopes of an industrial recovery.

Platinum rose 1.3 percent to 916.97 dollars an ounce, and palladium gained 4.3 percent to 2216.31 dollars.

The bees were crazy!!! Must have been at least 100 of them hovering around my panning tub. Just gotta ignore them and keep your beer covered.Didn't see anyone at 6 AM and left a note at the BLM board with my GPS location. Prospecting can be lonely but i'm an introvert so I don't mind the quiet.

I was walking on egg shells for a little bit. I was informed a certain maintenance man, that I was around a lot last week (thursday) was around a covid+ resident in one of the apartments. I was really on my way but their is no way i am going to risk someones life. The whole story of how it happened really pisses me off because of the selfishness of one person. He knew he was covid+ but still wanted his dishwasher fixed. Didnt inform anybody he was sick didnt cancel the appointment knowing he was sick. Caused a lot of people much stress and had to stay in campers away from thier wives. I am not going to name the state this dude came from, but he will be making a beeline back home if he hasnt already. Everybody is negative. It can happen that easy. Just one selfish person. We got lucky. If I get it I am pretty sure that im done. All that pot smoking in my younger days and cigarettes.  Oh by the way, airlines are really nice to deal with these days.

Information / Baghdad ..
