We have another very important confirmation that Barrick Gold is very serious about the re-start of its huge Pascua Lama mine building on the boarder of Argentina and Chile. All recent activity makes me think that somebody is more than likely is ready to support Barrick in this project with the capital and maybe even part of the Chinese market demand. All these developments are very positive for mining in Argentina and Lumina Copper advance demonstrates what potential assets re-pricing does really mean in this market environment. Reuters reports: "Barrick Strikes Deal With Pascua-Lama Mine Opponents."
Please carefully read my legal disclaimer and do not apply any of this information to any particular security or make any investment decisions. Now we have both of our valuation drives moving in the positive direction for TNR Gold: perception of political risk for mining in Argentina and copper prices reflecting Chinese PMI developments.
"May 28 (Reuters) - Canadian miner Barrick Gold has come to an initial agreement with local indigenous peoples in Chile who have opposed its stalled Pascua-Lama mine, taking a first step on what my be a long road to reactivating the project.
Barrick, the world's largest gold miner, halted the gold and copper project on the Chilean and Argentine border last year after investing $5 billion in it. Reuters."
