Gold traded as high as $1,342 this morning but has since pulled back…as of 9:25 am Pacific, the yellow metal is up $2 an ounce at $1,335…Silver has been jumping around and is now 28 cents higher at $28.29…the U.S. Dollar Index is off half a point at 77.17…political dynamics are clearing changing in the Middle East…the King of Jordan has sacked his government this morning and appointed a new prime minister…this comes amid even more unrest in Egypt as Mubarak’s days there appear to be numbered…for the moment this political upheaval has had minimal impact on oil and Gold prices but that of course could change…the CDNX has started February on a strong note…the Index is up 19 points at 2294 as of 9:25 am Pacific…the CDNX is technically better positioned now than at any time over the past few weeks to finally bust through resistance just above 2300…after hitting an all-time high of $5.17 yesterday, and testing that level again this morning, Richfield Ventures (RVC, TSX-V) has backed off slightly…RVC is currently off 13 cents at $4.90…Richfield’s Blackwater Project is now garnering even more attention…a major new mining camp is emerging in that part of central British Columbia and there are two other companies we follow with strategic land packages in the immediate vicinity of Blackwater – Troymet Exploration (TYE, TSX-V) and Greencastle Resources (VGN, TSX-V)…Troymet, up a penny at 25.5 cents this morning, starts drilling shortly…Greencastle is off half a penny at 24 cents…John is working on a couple of revealing VGN charts which we’ll be posting later today…Gold Bullion Development (GBB, TSX-V) is down 1 penny at 73 cents on relatively light volume…Cadillac Mining (CQX, TSX-V) is off 3 pennies at 24 cents…Cadillac has the lowest market cap of any company we follow (only $6 million) and the drop in half from 50 cents represents a unique opportunity as the underlying fundamentals with this situation are actually even better now than they were a month ago at a much higher share price…a turnaround has started with Currie Rose Resources (CUI, TSX-V) which is up 2.5 cents at 19 cents…CUI is coming out of deeply oversold conditions which underscores the importance of buying into weakness and being patient…Currie Rose has a terrific land package in Tanzania which is being worked on more than ever this year…as February begins, one of the best opportunities we see for this month is GoldQuest Mining (GQC, TSX-V)…drilling started at its La Escandalosa Project in the Dominican Republic six weeks ago and we’re expecting an update sometime this month…the company is drilling 30 to 40 holes in this phase at La Escandalosa…the probability of expanding the current resource is very high – the 43-101 last November was based on a limited amount of drilling over a very small portion of the two kilometre strike length of this very interesting property which has the potential to be a company-maker for GoldQuest…the fact that the very well respected Bill Fisher has agreed to be Chairman of GQC is very telling, in our view, of what is unfolding here which is a powerful geological success story…technically, GoldQuest is sitting on very strong support in the mid-30’s…we believe it’s just a matter of time before the resistance in the low 40’s is overcome…GoldQuest is currently up a penny at 36.5 cents…
