Gold has held its recent gains better this time, than it has previously, the actual gold price in $Aus is up approximately 11% for the year.
If the gold price continues on a upward trend, then hopefully there will be more focus, on gold exploration stocks, as opposed to the current focus, which seems to be all lithium and REE, especially REE at the moment , there are plenty of junior exploration companies, jumping on that bandwagon at present, it reminds me a lot of the dot com bubble, and we all know where that ended.
People have been fascinated by gold since the dawn of time, I was recently in WA, and speaking to a friend, who works in the gold mining industry at Kal, and he said workers chase these bubble industries, but when the shit hits the fan, they all come back, looking for jobs in the gold industry, because it is always there.
