Stock markets are up, along with global sovereign debt levels at historic highs. The central banks, which should take preventive action against rampant inflation, currently see no threat and continue printing money. Now comes the historically worst stock market month of the year. What to do? There are two alternatives to protect against inflation and capital loss: Put at least a small portion of your assets in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Etherum. And a more significant portion in the crisis metal gold.

    Goldseek Resources - At the center of the big ones!

    Gold is becoming more and more attractive due to the fundamental conditions. Inflation is rising due to the excessively expanding money supply, driven by increasingly large bailout packages. The shortage of raw materials and thus further increasing consumer prices do the rest. An investment in physical gold or currently "still" very favorably valued gold mining shares is the only alternative in the long term to counteract this devaluation of money.

    The still young Canadian gold mining Company Goldseek Resources has put together a more than impressive portfolio. The management is acquiring properties in mining-friendly areas, exclusively in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec, located in the vicinity of larger gold producers. The goal of the experienced management is to search the purchased land for gold, carry out test drilling and thus make the projects even more interesting for a takeover - ideally by the neighboring gold producer. For example, the Hemlo camp in Ontario is a full 4km from the Hemlo mine operated by Barrick Gold. The other 4 projects currently underway are also surrounded by first-class neighbors. The Detour Gold Trend is drilled next to Wallbridge Mining, and Urban Barry is drilled next to Osisko Mining and Bonterra Resources. Osisko Mining also has a mine next to the Quevillon project.

    It should be emphasized that drilling programs are currently underway at all 5 sites and are fully funded for the entire year. Goldseek Resources could already report on two positive pieces of news in the past weeks. The Company said that they identified 4 new target zones in its recently acquired Val-d'Or Nord concession area. According to CEO John Deluce, after these first promising results, the Company is anxious to start drilling in the summer. Furthermore, a fifth target zone has been identified within the Horizon project on the southern boundary of the concession area. This zone extends partially to Barrick Gold's Hemlo property.

    We expect the positive news flow to continue throughout the year. Currently, Goldseek Resources is valued at only CAD 7.0 million. If a major picks it up, the low prices will be a thing of the past.

    VISA - "Bitcoin is digital gold"

    The leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin, had to catch its breath briefly in recent weeks to make another attempt at a new all-time high. Currently, money continues to flow into the crypto market, so higher quotes should only be a matter of time. Many, especially the younger set, see cryptos as the "currency of the future." Even veteran investors like Warren Buffett are unlikely to dissuade them from their opinion. Buffett and his congenial partner Charlie Munger recently called bitcoin "rat poison squared" and consider it a speculative bubble that will inevitably lead to a nasty end.

    The credit card provider VISA sees it differently than the Berkshire Hathaway makers. Like PayPal recently, VISA wants to give customers and merchants access to cryptocurrencies. The Company's CEO believes cryptocurrencies will become mainstream in the near future. Thus, he wants to enable the purchase and sale of bitcoin with VISA. In addition, the Company is working with partners so that Bitcoin can be converted into a fiat currency. By doing so, the US wants to enable any of the 70 million merchants to accept Bitcoin as a payment method. The news about the installation of the future currency was well received by investors. As a result, the price rose to a new all-time high of USD 233.70. It has now almost tripled since 2017.

    NIO - Chip shortage hits hard

    The delivery figures for April 2021 are causing disillusionment at the Chinese electric car manufacturer NIO. The Company reported a further drop in sales compared to the previous month, the second one this year. Compared to the same period of last year, however, there was still a plus of a whopping 125.1%. The 2% decline compared to the previous month is the currently prevailing chip shortage and the supply of batteries, which in some cases has led to delays or even production stops.

    The Company also expects difficult conditions for the remaining months due to the shortage. Therefore, NIO plans to reduce production capacity from 10,000 units previously to 7,500 vehicles per month in the second quarter of 2021. Chart-wise, the stock is currently forming a bottom in the USD 40 area. Breaking above the resistance at USD 43.13 would significantly brighten the chart picture.

    B2Gold, Barrick Mining and Desert Gold: Gold rush despite geopolitical hurdles

    • Gold
    • Mali
    • Producers

    Gold production in Mali is booming. According to data from the mining ministry reported by Reuters, industrial gold production rose by around 30% to 23.5 tonnes in the first half of 2026, exceeding the government's forecast despite logistical difficulties and geopolitical tensions. While major gold producers, many of which also have projects in Mali, negotiate with the government and make strategic decisions, a nimble exploration company is advancing its large-scale project in the immediate vicinity. We examine the situation in Mali and explain how Desert Gold is progressing towards production at its SMSZ property.

    A single Chinese automaker sold 180,700 new energy vehicles overseas in September. That accounts for about 39% of its sales, more than double the figure from a year earlier. Behind this growth lies a substantial demand for raw materials, including copper and nickel for batteries and electric motors, as well as platinum-group metals for catalytic converters in hybrid vehicles. Electricity is also essential to charge all these vehicles. This illustrates what supply chains must look like to keep electric vehicles running. This plays right into the hands of raw material producers and electricity generators. Today, we take a closer look at Power Metallic Mines, Siemens Energy and BYD.

    Gold Rush in Côte d’Ivoire: Kobo Resources Drills in the Shadow of Endeavour Mining and Fortuna Mining

    • Côte d'Ivoire
    • Ivory Coast
    • Gold
    • Processing plant

    Côte d'Ivoire is emerging as the growth engine of the African gold industry. While neighbouring countries such as Mali and Burkina Faso face geopolitical upheaval, the country stands out for reliable permitting and direct connections to power grids and major roads. The government aims to increase annual gold production significantly within a decade, from 59 tons in 2025 to 100 tons. According to Mining Minister Sangafowa-Coulibaly, a refinery with a capacity of around 100 tons of gold is also set to begin operations in Abidjan by the end of the first half of 2027. After an all-time high of USD 5,589 in January 2026 and a correction to just below USD 4,000 in June, gold is once again trading well above that level, delivering high margins for producers. We examine the developments and highlight opportunities.
