Jim Rickards: Race between gold and new paper currency

Section: Daily Dispatches

4:46p ET Monday, October 11, 2010

Dear Friend of GATA and gold:

Eric King of King World News has gotten another interview with market intelligence collector Jim Rickards of Omnis Inc. and a brief excerpt of it has been posted at the King World News Internet site blog. Rickards remarks that there are only two options for central banks in their rush to devalue their currencies -- to devalue against gold or against a new paper currency of their creation. They'd prefer the latter, Rickards says, but the market seems to prefer gold. The excerpt is headlined "Jim Rickards: Race Between Gold and New Paper Currency" and you can find it at the King World News blog 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."
