Martin Hennecke on CNBC: Most market manipulation suppresses commodities, gold

Section: Daily Dispatches

9a ET Friday, August 13, 2010

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold (and Silver):

Gold price suppression was discussed openly on CNBC on Thursday, this time by Tyche Group's associate director, Martin Hennecke, interviewed from Hong Kong. Hennecke remarked that most global markets are manipulated, that most manipulation aims to suppress commodity prices, and that gold particularly is suppressed by central bank intervention. GATA doesn't seem to have any direct contact with Hennecke but as much as anyone in the financial world he seems to reflect GATA's point of view. His interview on CNBC is a little more than five minutes long and you can watch it here:

Sona Resources Expects Positive Cash Flow from Blackdome,
Plans Aggressive Exploration of Elizabeth Gold Property

On May 18, 2010, Sona Resources Corp. (TSXV: SYS, Frankfurt: QS7) announced the release of a preliminary economic assessment for gold production at its flagship Blackdome and Elizabeth properties in British Columbia.

Sona Executive Chairman Nick Ferris says: "We view this as a baseline scenario for gold production. The project is highly sensitive to the price of gold. A conservative valuation of gold at $1,093 per ounce would result in a pre-tax cash flow of $54 million. The assessment indicates that underground mining at the two sites would recover 183,600 ounces of gold and 62,500 ounces of silver. Permitting and infrastructure are already in place for processing ore at the Blackdome mill, with a 200-tonne per day throughput over an eight-year mine life. Our near-term goal is to continue aggressive exploration at Elizabeth and develop a million-plus-ounce gold resource, commencing production in 2013."
