A 3D Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey on its Tabasquena project in Zacatecas, Mexico is underway.
Survey designed to complement and enhance current 3D model of Tabasquena Epithermal veins
Goal of the survey is to assess the depth potential below the near surface mineralized zone
Kamloops, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – August 6, 2019) – Advance Gold Corp. (TSXV: AAX) (“Advance Gold” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that a 3D Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey on its Tabasquena project in Zacatecas, Mexico is underway. This geophysical survey is designed to complement and enhance the 3D model derived from the recent drilling which confirmed a widespread gold and silver mineralized epithermal vein system.
Prior to Advance Gold acquiring the project, a limited IP survey had
been carried out. This historical IP survey effectively identified three
of the known veins as significant chargeability and resistivity
anomalies.
The goal of the survey is to assess the depth potential below the
near surface mineralized zone that was encountered in the andesites,
with the graphitic phyllites below still open at depth. It is important
to note that the vein systems in the nearby mines operated by Fresnillo
Plc., and MAG Silver’s Juanicipio mine currently under construction, are
epithermal veins systems focused on zones within the graphitic
phyllites.
The 3D IP geophysical survey will take thousands of data point
readings on an 800 X 500 metre grid. It is designed to give a clearer
picture of anomalies adjacent to and below the current drilling, which
is primarily down to 300 metres, and possibly see down to approximately
600 metres.
Allan Barry Laboucan, President and CEO of Advance Gold Corp. commented: “We
are in a unique position for a gold and silver explorer as having found
a fully intact epithermal vein system. This is a fairly rare
occurrence. Making things somewhat challenging is that with a system
like this, the boiling zone of the system is deeper. This is the case in
all of the nearby mines around the cities of Fresnillo and Zacatecas,
Mexico. The mines are hosted in the graphitic phyllites below the
andesites. We have drilled a widespread zone of gold and silver
mineralization in the andesites at Tabasquena. Hopefully, once the
geophysical survey is completed we will be better able to focus our
deeper drilling in the search for the boiling zone of the system. With
the gold and silver markets gaining strength, it is a very exciting time
for us to be advancing this exceptional project. In addition to the
technical merits of the project, we are in one of the most prolific
mining regions worldwide for silver as 10% of the historical world
silver production comes from the state of Zacatecas, from epithermal
vein systems. Since we made the discovery of this system approximately
one year ago, the gold and silver markets have gone from being subdued
to much more optimistic. One of the defining attributes of this region,
in addition to the prolific mines, is that the costs for exploration,
development and mining are some of the lowest in the mining sector. We
have a highly prospective project at Tabasquena, are doing the work to
advance the project, have a small and tight share structure and will be
delivering crucial news as the market for gold and silver are improving
yet the menu for investors to choose from is small when it comes to the
exploration of quality projects.”

Central banks’ insatiable appetite for gold dominated the marketplace between April and June, according to the latest data from the World Gold Council
Global gold demand totaled 1,123 tonnes in the second quarter, up 8% from the second quarter of 2018.
For the first half of the year, physical gold demand rose of 2,181.7 tonnes, its highest level in three years.
(Kitco News) –
Central banks’ insatiable appetite for gold dominated the marketplace
between April and June, according to the latest data from the World
Gold Council (WGC).
In its second-quarter Gold Demand Trends report, the council said
that central banks bought a total of 224 tonnes of gold between April
and June. Official gold reserves increased by 374.1 tonnes in the first
half of the year — “the largest net H1 increase in global gold reserves
in our 19-year quarterly data series,†the analysts said in the
report.
“Buying was again spread across a diverse range of – largely emerging market – countries,†the WGC said.
The WGC said that nine central banks bought gold in the first half of the year.
“Central
banks, like other investors, sought safety in gold as they looked to
protect themselves in the face of many looming risks,†the analysts
said.
The report said that global gold demand totaled 1,123 tonnes in the
second quarter, up 8% from the second quarter of 2018. For the first
half of the year, physical gold demand rose of 2,181.7 tonnes, its
highest level in three years.
The report highlighted renewed strength in key sectors of the gold
market. In particular, gold jewelry demand in India increased by 12% to
168.8 tonnes, compared to the second quarter of 2018. This was the best
year-over-year quarterly increase since the second quarter of 2017.
“Indian demand was boosted early in the quarter by the wedding
season and festival buying, before slowing sharply as the gold price
rallied in June,†the report said.
The WGC noted that India’s gold demand faces strong headwinds as purchases have come to a “virtual standstill.â€
“The slowing economic environment and restrictions on the movement
of cash during the elections were a drag on demand in April and May,â€
the report said.
The India gold market was also hit with higher tariffs in early July with import duties rising to 12.5% from 10%.
“Although we do not expect this to have a long-term impact on gold
demand in India, we do see it having a dampening impact on Q3,
particularly as gold prices have remained elevated,†the WGC said.
While India saw strong growth in the second quarter, the world’s
largest gold consuming nation saw its third consecutive quarterly drop.
The WGC said that Chinese jewelry demand dropped by 4% in Q2 to 137.8
tonnes.
“Demand ground to a halt once the June price rally began and
retailer’s promotional efforts could not tempt consumers back.
Reportedly, showrooms were deserted as the quarter came to a close,†the
analysts said.
ETF Investment Demand Remains Robust
The second quarter started on a sour note for gold investors but
ended with a bang, according to the report. Renewed interest in
gold-backed exchange-traded products led the investment surge,
increasing by 67.2 tonnes in the second quarter an increase of 99% from
the second quarter of 2018.
The gains were predominantly seen in June as the month saw inflows
of 126.7 tonnes, reversing April’s outflows of 57.2 tonnes. The WGC
said that total hold holding reached a six-year high of 2,548 tonnes in
the first half of the year.
“Geopolitical uncertainty, dovish monetary policy commentary by
central banks, and a rising gold price were among the key factors that
drove investors to increase their holdings,†the analysts said.
The WGC highlighted the growing trend of European and U.K. investors
leading the way in the gold market. It noted that U.K.-listed funds
accounted for 75% of all global inflows during the second quarter.
“Investors sought the safe haven of gold amid the uncertainty
surrounding Brexit and the leadership battle that followed Theresa
May’s resignation as Prime Minister,†the analysts said. “The sharp drop
in the value of the pound also fueled inflows during the quarter as
the U.K.’s growth prospects were cut following repeated failures in
Brexit negotiations.â€
The WGC added that historic negative bond yields in German bonds also added to gold’s investment appeal.
Lackluster Coin and Bar Demand
Although
investors have been jumping into gold-backed ETFs, interest in
physical gold was fairly muted. The WGC said that gold coin and bar
demand dropped 12% in Q2 to 476.9 tonnes, the lowest level since 2009.
They noted that June’s sharp price rally has weighed on physical demand.
“This market has been struggling for some time, with many
traditional gold investors focused on America’s healthy economic growth,
low unemployment, and continued wage growth,†the WGC said. “The gold
price rally in June triggered selling by some investors, and coin
premiums in the secondary market fell to their lowest level since
before the global financial crisis, spurring gold exports from the US
to Germany.â€
Tech Sector Sees Lower Gold Demand
Although not a significant factor for the physical gold market,
analysts said that the tech sector saw gold demand drop by 3% in the
second quarter to 81.1 tonnes.
“This was the third consecutive quarter of falling demand, due to a
range of challenges in the electronics sector, including the ongoing
trade dispute between China and the US. However, there are signs of
recovery and we expect declines to continue to slow throughout H2
2019,†the WGC said.
Gold Supply Rises Due To Record Production
The council noted that robust gold demand is being met with strong
production; the analysts said that gold supply increased by 6% in the
second quarter to 1,186.7 tonnes. The supply was led by record gold
production between April and June.
The WGC added that gold production increased by 2% to 882.6 tonnes
in the second quarter. “This is a record level of global output for a
second quarter and follows on from a Q1 record of 847.5t.
Global gold production was let by Canada, Russia and the U.S. that
saw their domestic production increase by 9% in the third quarter.
Australia, which has reported record gold production in 2018 saw an
increase of 6% in the second quarter.
The WGC also noted an increase in recycled gold as consumers sold into higher prices late in the quarter.

Expectations are the Fed will cut rates by 25 basis points
Falling interest rates make metals more attractive
Tie in bullish technicals with a clueless Fed and we should see higher gold and silver prices.
Yesterday we wrote that gold and silver would probably be quiet and
flat until after the Fed reported on Wednesday. It now looks like the
metals are trying to get a jump on the Fed and have started to rally
early.
Friday saw gold
trade as low as $1,412 and suddenly the metal is back over $1,440.
There was a late-day rally Monday with some early morning follow-through
today. The key to watch in gold is the $1,450 level, since a close
above would signal $1,500 is not far behind. Silver looks like it wants to join the rally and push through $17.
Expectations are the Fed will cut rates by 25 basis points; that
would be bullish for the metals. Falling interest rates make metals more
attractive. Tie in bullish technicals with a clueless Fed and we should
see higher gold and silver prices.

Monarch produced 3,572 ounces of gold in the fourth quarter, up 169% from the third quarter and down 24% from the 4,695 ounces produced last year.
The increase was attributable to a rise in the production rate at the Camflo mill and the Beaufor mine combined with a higher grade of ore.
MONTREAL, July 31, 2019 – MONARCH GOLD CORPORATION (“Monarch” or the “Corporation”) (TSX: MQR) (OTCMKTS: MRQRF) (FRANKFURT: MR7) is pleased to report its production and corporate highlights for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2019. Amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Production highlights
Monarch produced 3,572 ounces of gold in the fourth quarter, up 169%
from the third quarter and down 24% from the 4,695 ounces produced last
year. The increase was attributable to a rise in the production rate at
the Camflo mill and the Beaufor mine combined with a higher grade of
ore.
The Corporation recorded revenues of $7.3 million in the fourth quarter from the sale of 2,666 ounces of gold at an average price of $1,764 per ounce (US $1,333)
plus custom milling revenue, which was down 3.1% from the third quarter
due to an increase in the tonnage milled from the Beaufor mine.
As at June 30, 2019, the Corporation had more than 1,100 ounces of gold in inventory.
“This was a solid quarter in terms of performance, especially given
that we operated with approximately one-third the workforce we had last
year,” said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Monarch. “This quarter also marks the suspension of
our production activities at the Beaufor mine during the quarter, as of
June 27, 2019, and at the Camflo mill on July 10, 2019.
Given the current gold environment, our team is focusing on identifying
new exploration targets at the Beaufor mine and preparing a drilling
program on the most promising targets, while Camflo is currently
undergoing maintenance work that should take place over a 90-day
period.”
“Despite the fact that we have suspended our production activities,
Monarch is in an excellent position to benefit from the current upward
trend in gold prices. The Corporation has a large portfolio of
high-quality mining assets that include two mills, six advanced gold
projects with total measured and indicated resources of more than
3.1 million ounces of gold (see table at the end of this press release),
a 14.2% interest in Unigold (TSXV: UGD), as well as a strong financial
position. Our goal in the coming quarters will be to develop our
flagship Wasamac project, which has an annual production potential of
142,000 ounces of gold over 11 years (see press release dated December 3, 2018), and to increase the value of our assets through partnerships and other transactions.”

780 Meter Intercept of 0.683 g/t Gold;
Including a higher grade upper portion of 1.095 g/t over 370.5 meters in new hole at Treaty Creek
Results prompting mobilization of second drill to project
Darren Blaney, President and CEO of American Creek, commented: “This is very encouraging as we have our best hole to date at Treaty. Furthermore, in addition to a major extension of the system to the northeast, we are now seeing some high grade gold, silver and base metals showing up in the core. I congratulate Mr. Konkin on delivering the goods. Well done!”
Cardston, Alberta–(July 30, 2019) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) (“the Corporation”) (“American Creek”) is pleased to announce results from the first three diamond drill holes at the Goldstorm Zone on the Treaty Creek Joint Venture project, located in the Golden Triangle of NW British Columbia. In light of the favourable results obtained during phase one drilling, a second drill has arrived on-site and has begun drilling for the phase two portion of the program.
Tudor Gold Exploration Manager, Ken Konkin explains:
“The Goldstorm system continues to grow rapidly along strike to the
northeast and towards the footwall contact zone to the southeast. The
best near-surface intercept obtained to-date on the project has been
obtained from the latest hole; GS19-42. This is a vertical hole that is a
150m step-out to the northeast from drill hole CB18-39 (0.981g/t Au
over 563.8m intercept). The higher grade upper portion of last year’s
hole CB18-39 averaged 1.141 g/t Au over 280.5m compared to the same
upper mineralized horizon of GS19-42 that averages 1.268 g/t Au over a
252.0 m intercept. The system appears to be gaining strength to the
northeast as the depth is now showing to exceed 700m, with an average of
0.683 g/t Au over 780 meters of vertical intercept. The mineralized
horizon appear to be near flat-lying with excellent grade consistency
between holes along the upper horizon. Exploration efforts will attempt
to extend the zone further to the northeast with yet another 150m NE
step-out hole from GS19-42.”
Drill holes GS19-40 and GS19-41, were successful in locating the
footwall contact zone, which is a very fine-grained strongly silicified
volcanic unit. Furthermore, porphyritic intrusive was also encountered
at the base of GS19-40, and within GS19-41 that returned anomalous
copper and molybdenum values. As well, a strong silver-bearing
base-metal system has been seen for the first time in the northernmost
hole (GS19-42), within the upper mineralized horizon. Values of 33.51
g/t Au, 1,154 g/t Ag, 2.89% Cu, 5.96% Pb and 1.89% Zn were returned over
a 1.5 meter interval from 209.5 m to 211.0 m was a pleasant surprise in
the last hole GS19-42.

Caution ahead of this week’s U.S. Federal Reserve meeting, with investors likely to look beyond an expected rate cut
Interest rate futures are fully priced for a quarter-point rate cut from the Fed on Wednesday, with only a small chance of a half-point move.
Gold was little changed on Monday as caution set
in ahead of this week’s U.S. Federal Reserve meeting, with investors
likely to look beyond an expected rate cut to the central bank’s
guidance on monetary policy for the rest of the year.
“A rate cut is entirely priced in while a 50 basis points cut is
extremely unlikely. So guidance becomes absolutely key,†OANDA senior
market analyst Craig Erlam said.
â€(Gold’s movement) will depend
on how dovish or how far ajar Jerome Powell leaves the door on these
rate cuts in the months ahead.â€
For the first time since the
financial crisis, the Fed is expected to trim the key interest rate by
at least 25 basis points (bps) at its July 30-31 meeting. Investors will
also look for signals of likely additional cuts in the pipeline.
“Much will also depend on what Fed Chair Powell says in the subsequent
press conference: if he makes no mention of a cycle of rate cuts,
causing gold to come under pressure, we would not see this as a trend
reversal but as an attractive buying opportunity,†analysts at
Commerzbank said in a note.
Interest rate futures are fully priced
for a quarter-point rate cut from the Fed on Wednesday, with only a
small chance of a half-point move.
Traders
will also keep a close eye on the U.S. and Chinese trade talks in
Shanghai this week, as negotiators from both countries meet for their
first in-person talks since a truce at G20 last month. Expectations are
low for a breakthrough.
On the technical front, $1,400 will be the key downside support for gold, and beyond that, $1,380, OANDA’s Erlam said.
“Bulls are very reluctant to let go just yet, but if we do see those
levels break, we might see gold bulls head for the exits quite quickly.â€
Hedge
funds and money managers reduced their bullish stance in COMEX gold in
the week to July 23, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission
(CFTC) said in a report on Friday.
SPDR Gold Trust, the world’s largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, said its holdings fell 0.1% to 818.14 tonnes on Friday.
Among other precious metals, silver dipped 0.1% to $16.37 per ounce.
Palladium fell 0.3% to $1,530.38 per ounce, while platinum gained 0.8% to $867.26 per ounce.

Drilling at the C.O.D. North vein – 421m has been drilled in 7 holes
1,965m drilled in 32 holes on the main COD vein – Assays Due
Drill testing “Anomaly” at depths between 500 and 800 metres
The anomaly is interpreted as a pipe-like structure measuring 1834 by 1377m
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 24, 2019 / GGX
Gold Corp. (TSX-v: GGX), (OTCQB: GGXXF), (FRA: 3SR2) (the “Company†or
“GGXâ€) provides the following update on its exploration activities at
its Gold Drop property in the Greenwood Mining Camp.
Drilling resumed as of July 16 at the C.O.D. North vein. As of July
22, a total of 421 metres has been drilled in 7 holes on the COD North,
in addition to the total of 1,965 metres drilled in 32 holes on the main
COD vein. An initial batch of samples was submitted for analyses in
late June, but assays have not yet been received.
Preparations are also underway to drill a relatively deep hole on a
geophysical anomaly (refer to news release dated July 4). Drill rods and
bits have been purchased and a night shift drill crew has been
arranged. The drill site has been selected and verified by a
representative for Earth Science Services Corporation of Oshawa, Ontario
(ESSCO). The initial hole is planned to be drilled to test the target
zone at depths between 500 and 800 metres. The anomaly is interpreted as
a pipe-like structure that measures 1834 by 1377 metres.
The Company also announces that it has repriced the flow through
portion of its private placement originally announced on June 18, 2019.
The non brokered private placement will now be an offering of up to
4,000,000 flow through units at a price of Cdn$0.25 per unit for gross
proceeds of $1,000,000. Each flow-through unit will comprise one common
share (which is a flow-through share for Canadian income tax purposes)
and one-half share purchase warrant. Each whole flow-through warrant
will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share which is
not a flow-through share at the price of $0.35 for 18 months after
closing. The term of the warrants may be accelerated in the event that
the issuer’s shares trade at or above a price of $0.40 cents per share
for a period of 10 consecutive days. In such case of accelerated
warrants, the issuer may give notice, in writing or by way of news
release, to the subscribers that the warrants will expire 20 days from
the date of providing such notice. The proceeds of the private placement
will be used for continued exploration work including diamond drilling
and trenching at the Company’s Gold Drop property near Greenwood in
Southern British Columbia.
The terms of the non-flow through placement remain as announced on June 18, 2019.
A finder’s fee may be paid to eligible finders in accordance to the
TSX-V policies. All securities issued pursuant to the offering will be
subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of
closing. The offerings and payment of finders’ fees are both subject to
approval by the TSX-V.
David Martin, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101 and consultant to the Company, approved the technical
information in this release.
