In the war between the Western alliance and the Asian axis, the media focus is on the Ukrainian battlefield. The real war is in currencies, with Russia capable of destroying the dollar.

So far, Russian President Vladimir Putin's actions have been relatively passive. But already both Russia and China have accumulated enough gold to implement gold standards. It is now overwhelmingly in their interests to do so.

Monday, January 30, 2023

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Canada -- Dolly Varden Silver Corp. (TSXV: DV) (OTC: DOLLF) is pleased to announce drill results from the 100%-owned Homestake Ridge property in British Columbia's Golden Triangle. 

Highlights from the Homestake Main Deposit include:

-- HR22-324: 4.32 g/t Au and 76 g/t Ag over 22.50 meters including 19.42 g/t Au and 375 g/t Ag over 4.50 meters.

-- HR22-333: 46.31 g/t Au, 70 g/t Ag and 0.19% Cu over 25.00 meters including 1,145 g/t Au, 826 g/t Ag and 0.51% Cu over 0.48 meters. ...

"Dolly Varden Silver's initial drilling at the Homestake Main Deposit has returned consistent mineralized intervals with some of the highest grades of gold with silver reported from the Property to date, but also the entire Golden Triangle during the 2022 drilling season," said Shawn Khunkhun, president and CEO. 

"Coupled with the exceptional grades and thicknesses of silver mineralization encountered in step-out holes at the Wolf and Kitsol Deposits, we are demonstrating the impressiveprecious metal endowment and potential of the Kitsault Valley trend." ...

From Sergey Glazyev's recent article in a Russian business newspaper, it is clear that settlement of trade balances between members, dialog partners, and associate members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) optionally will be in gold. Furthermore, the Russian economy would benefit enormously from a decline in borrowing rates from current levels of more than 13% to a level more consistent with sound money.

To understand the consequences, in this article the comparison is made between the Western alliance's fiat-currency and deficit-spending regime and the Russian-Chinese axis' planned industrial revolution for some 3.8 billion people in the SCO family. China has a remarkable savings rate, which will underscore the investment capital for a rapid increase in Asian industrialisation without inflationary consequences.

With a new round of military action in Ukraine shortly to kick off, it will be in Putin's interest to move from passivity to financial aggression. It will not take much for him to undermine the entire Western fiat-currency system -- a danger barely recognised by a gung-ho NATO military complex. ...
