Prior to joining the company he spent five years working as an investor relations officer or consultant to numerous junior mining companies.

It’s the rare day I wake up to see news so powerfully Precious Metal bullish – regarding its short and long-term implications – I can barely contain myself.  The last such event was the BrExit – which set into motion the inevitable...
It's my last article of what I believe is the penultimate year of survival for history's largest; most destructive; and for the first time, global, fiat Ponzi scheme. Fittingly, on this typical quiet week of paper-thin holiday trading,...
