Palm Beach, FL – May 4, 2022 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – A number of technical analysts have recently pointed out that the US dollar is vulnerable… This is important because gold and the dollar are usually inversely correlated. So if the dollar falls in 2022, gold is likely to rise. An article from a Senior Industry Analysist says look to the miners… the gold mining industry has suddenly perked up. He said: “Gold exploration budgets were up 43% in 2021 ($6.2 billion). Junior company financings hit their highest level since 2012 ($5.5 billion) and over 200 more gold exploration companies were formed in 2021 than 2020. The point to this is that mining company executives wouldn’t invest big dollars into projects unless they had confidence in the gold price. At a minimum it suggests they believe gold won’t fall much, and will probably rise. Add It All Up. These combinations of factors show there are a number of catalysts that could propel gold higher in both the short-term (one-year) and long-term (3-5 years), even if one or more doesn’t play out. And that’s a big advantage of gold ownership: it isn’t about one factor or another, it’s about any factor that increases fear or uncertainty on the part of investors. And there are a lot of risks surrounding us at this point that could drive investors into gold. Consider this: There is no vaccine for the coming monetary crisis. Monetary dilution will continue, as austerity is completely off the radar in the world we live in right now. This is a built-in catalyst for higher gold prices. Because of this, my most confident prediction is that over the next few years, possibly longer, the gold price will be trading at much higher prices than where it is now, regardless of what it may do within a one-year period.” Said the analysist GoldFix. Active Companies in the markets today include Asia Broadband Inc. (OTCPK: AABB), New Gold Inc. (NYSE: NGD) (TSX: NGD), Gold Resource Corporation (NYSE: GORO), IAMGOLD Corporation (NYSE: IAG), Sandstorm Gold Ltd. (NYSE: SAND) (TSX: SSL).
The GoldFix analysist continued: “My forecast for the gold price in 2022 is based on the current environment of rising inflation, negative real yields, a weaker dollar, and ongoing monetary dilution. We also have to consider the Fed’s diminishing ability to respond effectively to crisis—they are indeed trapped. As a result, I expect the gold price to be higher in 2022. Here are my predictions: Minimum High $2,00; Potential High With No Crisis $2,250 and 5 year Prediction $3,000 to $10,000. The most important message from this analysis is that even if I’m wrong, it has rarely been more important to own gold at this time in history. This means that any dips in price should be bought, especially for those that don’t hold a meaningful amount.”
Asia Broadband Inc. (OTCPK: AABB) BREAKING NEWS – Asia Broadband Sets Production Expansion Timeline for the Tequila Gold Mine Project in Mexico – Asia Broadband Inc. (“AABB” or the “Company) is pleased to announce that the Company has set the completion timeline for its facilities retrofit production upgrade on its mining property in the Tequila region of Mexico. The Company expects the upgrade program to be complete with an additional 50 tons per day (tpd) production capacity available within 6 months. At that time, the mill capacity will be 100 tpd and double the current processing limit of 50 tpd. Additionally, the Company is planning a large-scale expansion of its production and processing facilities to begin installation later this year. Utilizing the advances in mining equipment automation and efficiency, the larger scale facilities will have significantly increased throughput and metals extraction. The added production volume at a lower cost per ton is expected to have a substantial impact on the Company’s gross profit margin going forward.
“The completion of our production facilities retrofit at Tequila will double our production and also add extraction efficiencies. We are excited to reach that point because it will provide the platform to plan and build out a large-scale expansion to our processing plant,” stated Chris Torres, the Company President and CEO.
Further to the Tequila property, the Company is expecting to receive a geological assessment report in the coming weeks prepared by a qualified professional person. The report will allow the Company to maximize its exploration, development and resource expansion program as well as facilitate production efficiencies and planned processing equipment upgrades and additions.
AABB continues to implement its mining property acquisition strategy to optimize development capital utilization by focusing operations in regions of Mexico where AABB has a comparative advantage of development resources and expertise readily available for rapid expansion and duplication of the Company’s previous gold production success.
