Silver. For Your Health. For Your Wealth.

It’s ironic that the Covid-19 outbreak came to the fore at the same time that precious metals – gold and silver – were building out lengthy technical bottoms formed in 2016 and 2019, implying much higher prices to come.

For gold, a new all-time nominal high attempt at $2,000 could take place this year. For silver, spear thrusts at $26-$30 are within the realm of possibility.

Given current market action trading down to $12, this may seem hard to believe. But silver can surprise on the upside just as easily.

Gold and silver – for those who have prepared by “stacking” it – and in the relatively short time remaining for those making that choice now, are poised once again to effectively carry out their historic insurance roles.

What’s fascinating to me – after more than two decades of personal experience – is the parallel role silver plays as a vital health tool.

I cannot give medical advice per se, but you can certainly “look over my shoulder.”

Consider the evidence here, do some additional research, and maybe take a “test drive.” I use exactly this same process myself!

For several decades, I’ve used a brand of colloidal silver spray for health maintenance. This came in handy three times during the many mining tours I’ve taken to research and write reports for The Morgan Report – once each in Mexico, Argentina, and in Guandong, China. A spray into each eye (contacts in), quickly turned a dangerous if-untreated eye infection into, as my South American friends would say, “no hay problema.”

Just before visiting a high-altitude silver mine in Bolivia, a dropper-full of colloidal silver took a severe ear infection down for the count in a few minutes. Years of struggle with sinusitis, frequent colds and flu have become non-events. At the first sign of a problem – I spray nostrils, throat and eyes.

What about “blue skin”? This fear goes back many years to when people tried to make their own ionic silver without controls on sanitation, or the ability to measure the silver content.

“Colloidal silver generator” devices are still for sale on the Internet, but it’s a good idea to avoid this temptation. “Blue skin” is not a risk from taking modern structured silver (or silver hydrosol).

Even so, I’ve underappreciated the virtues of structured silver water. But now, the impressive “math” and methodology can play a role in the creation of a personalized “anti-Covid-19 plan.”

You can see several videos of David Morgan interviewing the product’s inventor here and here. I receive exactly zero compensation from anyone trying it and pay full retail for my own supply. If someone reading this is helped, such “payment” is more than enough.

In their book, “The Most Precious Metal” Dr. Gordon Pederson and Dr. Bryan Frank say:

Silver is nature’s finest germ killer. Simply by being silver, this most precious metal’s elemental properties are toxic to pathogenic microorganisms while simultaneously being non-toxic to healthy cells and probiotic bacteria. Thanks to recent technological development, the newest forms of silver kill germs even more effectively than synthetic pharmaceutical drugs. [And] They do this without side effects.

But don’t take my word for it. Like the closing tag on some of my reports says: “Do the research. Do the math. The decision must be yours!”

Silver (and gold) for your Wealth. Jim Rickards, one of the most widely read and interviewed analysts (several times by Money Metals), has this to say:

For the first time since 2008, it looks like central banks are losing control of the global financial system. Gold does not have a central bank. Gold always inspires confidence because it is scarce, tested by time and has no credit risk.

We’re in the early stages of a similar super-spike that could take gold to $10,000 per ounce or higher. When that happens there will be one important difference between the new super-spike and what happened in 1980.

Rickards notes that in 1980, you could buy gold at several price points along the way, staying on for most of the ride. He concludes that this time it will be different:

Gold will be in such short supply that only the central banks, giant hedge funds and billionaires will be able to get their hands on any. The mint and your local dealer will be sold out. That physical scarcity will make the price super-spike even more extreme than in 1980.

Why did I just spend so much time talking about gold, when our primary topic is silver?

Because gold’s strong rise will occur first. This is demonstrated by the silver-gold ratio continuing to hold above 90, meaning it still takes 90 ounces of silver to buy one ounce of gold. At this writing it’s even risen to an all-time high – so far – spiking to over 120:1! But when silver begins to close that gap, the move will catch most everyone by surprise. The run will be disbelieved as it explosively surges upward.

Silver sales are turning on the proverbial dime!

Don’t be a fish out of water. Don’t take too long to decide, because things are changing as we speak.

At a small stream near where I live, salmon congregate near the mouth during low water, waiting for fall rains to raise the level so they can move upstream and spawn, completing their life cycle. It’s interesting just how short is the window of opportunity for them to “get it right” is very short.

Often, it’s only a couple of days before the rising water level drops back. The fish who time it right get to create the next generation.

The stragglers who are even slightly late can be left – quite literally – high and dry on a sandbar.

If your timing is a bit off in getting the physical gold and silver necessaryto carry you forward financially, odds are you’re going to find yourself “beached,” as supplies dwindle, premiums rise, and life, along with the great profit potential that goes along with it, passes you by.

Genesis Drills for High-Grade at Chevrier

Source: James Kwantes, Resource Opportunities, for Streetwise Reports   03/18/2020

James Kwantes of Resource Opportunities discusses the investment thesis behind this Discovery Group company operating in “the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt.”

For veteran speculators, the latest hits to junior mining share prices feels like déjà vu all over again. Sentiment is gloomy and market capitalizations are depressed.

But gold, in U.S. dollar terms, is still up more than 25% year-over-year. And US$1,500 gold translates to more than CA$2,150, an exceptional price for Canadian projects whose expenses are measured mostly in loonies.

Gold producers that deplete their reserves with every shift and every scoop still rely on junior exploration companies to find the deposits that will replenish their ore. Most juniors, meanwhile, had yet to respond even before the coronavirus corrections—which has further pummeled the sector. Expectations are very low, along with share prices.

For exploration companies with strong management and backing, a flush treasury and potential for high-grade discoveries, it’s not a bad setup. Genesis Metals Corp. (GIS:TSX.V; GGISF:OTC) fits the bill. The Discovery Group company has $3.5 million in the treasury to drill its flagship Chevrier project in Quebec’s Chibougamau mining district. Chevrier is located in the eastern portion of the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt (180 million ounces [180Moz] of historical gold production).

Genesis is drilling an initial 2,500 meters (10 holes) at Chevrier, part of a planned 8,000-meter drill program this year. The initial program is designed to tap into high-grade shoots within the Chevrier Main zone deposit, expanding the higher-grade domain. Genesis’s market cap of about $7.9 million is backstopped by existing gold resources at Chevrier totaling 395,000 ounces Indicated grading 1.45 g/t Au and 297,000 ounces Inferred at an average grade of 1.33 g/t, at the Chevrier Main and East Zones.

The company has already identified high-grade areas within the deposit—assays announced on Jan. 22, 2018 included 8.73 g/t over 21.35 meters and 4.26 g/t over 19.4 meters at the Main Zone. But those results went unappreciated, with gold trading at US$1,330/ounce on its way down to $1,200. Later this year, Genesis plans to test targets elsewhere on the 295-square-kilometer property that were identified through last year’s property-wide glacial till survey.

Overseeing the exploration program is new CEO David Terry, an economic geologist who was appointed president and CEO on Dec. 2, 2019 (Jeff Sundar remains as executive director). Terry obtained a PhD in Geology from Western University in Ontario. He’s also well schooled in the vagaries of bull and bear market mining cycles, through decades in the industry running projects—both large and small—for majors and helming explorecos. Terry is currently a director of several active exploration companies, including Golden Arrow Resources Corp. (GRG:TSX.V; GARWF:OTCQB; G6A:FSE), Aftermath Silver Ltd. (AAG:TSX.V) and Great Bear Resources Ltd. (GBR:TSX.V; GTBDF:OTCQX). Great Bear, also a Discovery Group company, is drilling high-grade gold along kilometers of strike at its Dixie project in Red Lake, Ontario.

For Terry, the Great Bear directorship is a kind of return to Red Lake. His first summer job in exploration included mapping and sampling in the prolific district for a large mining company called Goldfields while he attended Western in the 1980s. He later worked for several years as a contract geologist with Cominco (which sponsored his PhD thesis) in Alaska, followed by a stint with Hemlo Gold exploring back in the Abitibi.

After obtaining his PhD, Terry worked for Westmin Resources, then Boliden, as a geologist and project manager. When Boliden exited Canada with the mining sector in a post Bre-X slump, Terry took a position as a regional geologist for the British Columbia (BC) Geological Survey in southeastern BC for three years. He spoke at the closing ceremony for Teck Resources Ltd.’s (TCK:TSX; TCK:NYSE) legendary Sullivan mine, which operated for nearly a century and produced 160 million tonnes grading 12% zinc/lead and 67 g/t silver. Since 2004 he has worked in management, director and advisory roles with a number of juniors exploring and advancing precious and base metal projects in both North American and a number of Latin American countries.

Terry joined the Great Bear board in July 2016, before the Dixie project was the company’s flagship. Great Bear’s mineralized LP fault is now recognized as one of the best gold discoveries of recent years, globally. But Terry remembers when the team operated in relative obscurity, with GBR shares trading for dimes not dollars.

As for Genesis, adopting a go-slow approach in 2019 laid the groundwork for an active 2020. Instead of drilling in the depths of a bear market, former president and CEO Jeff Sundar focused on building out the team and raising a war chest. Genesis joined the Discovery Group of companies and added Discovery principals John Robins and Jim Paterson as strategic advisors. The Discovery Group has an impressive record of wins in recent years, including the $520-million sale of Kaminak Gold to Goldcorp and the $117-million sale of Northern Empire Resources to Coeur Mining Inc. (CDE:NYSE). Rob Carpenter, the cofounder and former CEO of Kaminak, also came on as a strategic advisor.

Genesis’s successful financings were done in conjunction with a 5-for-1 share consolidation and the appointment of Terry as CEO. Rollbacks have a bad reputation—and rightly so—but consolidations done in conjunction with management changes and large financings can set the stage for success. Great Bear is another example of a successful rollback, its tight share structure helping to propel the stock post-discovery.

Chevrier is located in a prolific district of high-grade gold resources. Directly to the southwest is the Monster Lake gold discovery, where joint venture partners IAMGOLD Corp. (IMG:TSX; IAG:NYSE) and TomaGold Corp. (LOT:TSX.V) have identified an Inferred resource of 433,000 ounces at 12.14 g/t gold. At the Nelligan project further southwest, Vanstar has delineated 3.1 million ounces of gold (Inferred) at about 1 g/t, but last year hit 6 meters grading 56.46 g/t Au. IAMGOLD recently increased its interest in the project to 75%.

South of Chevrier, the Joe Mann gold mine produced 1.2 million ounces of gold at 8.26 g/t, as well as silver and copper. Infrastructure is excellent at Chevrier: a highway and power line runs through the property and the regional airport is a few minutes drive to the north.

With Discovery Group backing, a strong management and technical team, and a full treasury to drill high-grade gold targets at Chevrier, Genesis has laid the foundation for success. And high-grade gold discoveries get rewarded by the market, even in these tumultuous times for juniors.

Is There a Real Shortage of Physical Gold and Silver?

Source: Bob Moriarty for Streetwise Reports   03/18/2020

Bob Moriarty of 321gold discusses the current situation with physical metals and paper markets.

Every time the price of gold and silver go down in a big way, the manipulation/conspiracy crowd come creeping out of their rat holes to start preaching about naked short selling and a disconnect between physical metals and paper markets. As you will see, both issues tend to reveal how little these guys understand about how markets and people work in the real world. And an utter display of their basic ability to think for themselves.

A little Econ 101 first.

Commodity markets go down because of an excess of motivated sellers. Anyone who actually knows how commodity markets work understands that for every contract there is one buyer and one seller. That’s why it is impossible for there to be anyone doing “naked short selling.” You can sell first or you can buy first but you will do both eventually. If somehow someone managed to dump trillions of dollars worth of commodity contracts “naked” on the market, at some point they would have to buy those contracts back.

A lot of people like to believe that commodity prices go down because there are more sellers than buyers but since every contract requires an equal and opposite party on the other side, if ten contracts are sold, someone has to buy ten contracts. There is never any other alternative. One buyer, one seller. Both margined or having the ability to fulfill the contract either as a supplier or a consumer.

So if the prices of gold and silver have plummeted, and they have, why are people reporting shortages of the physical metals? And let me remind my readers, there were people predicting this crash with great accuracy.

I’ll give you a hint: none of the manipulation/conspiracy crowd got it right. They never do call anything correctly but are always forgiven because they tell people what they want to hear, just like TV preachers and successful politicians.

To understand why there is an apparent shortage of physical metals, you have to try thinking for yourself.

Pretend you want to go into the business of buying and selling silver bars. You have rented a shop, hired an assistant, set up an accounting program. On the 6th of March a customer walked in, your first. He wanted to sell this nice shiny 100-ounce silver bar. You looked at either Kitco or the futures market to see what you should pay, there being zero difference between the physical and paper market at the time.

For the 6th of March the spot silver price varied between a low of $17.08 and a high of $17.55. Since as a businessman you have to make money you pay him $1700 for the bar. He’s thrilled; you’re thrilled with your first purchase.

Time passes and since you are new to the game you don’t do any business. After all it takes time to build a customer base. But the bell rings and another potential customer walks in. Lucky for you, he wants to buy a 100-ounce silver bar, shiny if possible, and you just happen to have one in stock.

The two of you go to Kitco or look at the spot price of silver on the futures market and it shows $12.27. What do you do? Do you sell it for $12.27 and a small premium or do you tell him you are out of stock? At this point, the price of physical and paper is the same.

Or alternatively do you point out that the “experts” are saying customers are willing to pay a 50% premium. So you tell him that the price is $1800 for the bar. If you quote him $1800, just how likely do you think it is that he will bite?

If you charge him $12.27 an ounce, you go out of business. If he is willing to pay a 50% premium, give him my contact details because I have all the silver in the world at a 50% premium.

The price of silver went down because the sellers were more interested in dumping than buyers were in scarping it up. There is no shortage of silver and there is no disconnect between the price of physical and paper. If you really believe dealers are short of silver, take in a 100-ounce bar and see just how much the physical price varies from the paper price.

I can tell you. It’s zero. If you own gold or silver you paid for it with paper and if you sell gold or silver you are going to be paid based on the paper price.

Supply and demand really does work. If the price of silver bars stays low, all the people who rushed to buy at the top will be just thrilled to sell at the bottom. They always do.
