      Behind all the posturing, surely virtually every congress person is in the MIICC’s pocket, and this charade of Russia-Gate serves their interest, both in promoting Cold War 2.0 and in providing a circus to distract from their treachery and crimes.

    (ARY) (ANLDF) Anfield Resources to evaluate the addition of a Vanadium Milling circuit at its Shootaring Canyon Mill

      While lower cost Uranium mining (from the conventional Mills and assets they picked up from Uranium One) and the potential for ISR mining on their 24 deposits, will be the main driver for Anfield… it is interesting that they are now considering the #Vanadium as well. With all the attention that Vanadium batteries have received lately in the #EnergyStorage sector, it may be one of the few areas that could disrupt the Lithium Ion batters.

      Anfield has a nice energy combo… charge the batteries on #Nuclear power and then run the stuff on #Vandium batteries…. The full circuit. 🙂

    Sold my URA yesterday at 15.77 a bit late. Buying back some today. Good time to buy xop now in the 34 area as oil has corrected about $3 as it has being doing lately.

    Guess the stage is beginning to be set for 666. Call me chicken, but I’ll opt to rapture out.

    Silver Prices Have Further Room To Fall – Analysts

    Neils Christensen – Wednesday December 06, 2017

    “Silver prices have fallen through the key psychological level of $16 an ounce as the market remains near a five-month low. March silver futures last traded at $15.97 an ounce, down 0.61% on the day.”

    “Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank, said that investors should prepare for further losses in the silver market as the metal has struggled to gain significant investor attention in 2017.

    “The push through a key retracement level at $16.30 does not bode well for silver’s immediate future,” he said. “I think we need to get to a level that puts the metal back on investors’ radar and that price is lower.”

    I think I will buy more @ $4.

      Dec 06, 2017 06:05 AM

      retest of overnight…..at $14……..will be it……wash is on the way…….

      Dec 06, 2017 06:07 AM

      $4 would be a good place to accumulate more physical Silver.

      I’d prefer to see Copper at $4 than Silver there though….

        Dec 06, 2017 06:11 AM

        $4 silver will never happen……….the Chinese will have all the silver at that price

        Dec 06, 2017 06:16 AM

        Thing is I have all the silver I want.
        for me to get interested enough to actually buy more would take a price I couldnt say no to.

        Besides, buy more @ $4 rhymes.

          Dec 06, 2017 06:26 AM

          if, it gets to $4, it will like pennies on the street, no one will stoop over and pick it up..

            Dec 06, 2017 06:29 AM

            OOTB – nobody wants Silver now at $16, so yeah at $4 silver it would be too heavy to even bend over and pick it up…. 😉

            Those Mark Dice vids show us what people actually think of PMs.

            Puerto Rico…cigarettes..#1
            PMs, way down the list and when you can get something for it..it is nowhere near spot.

            Society has to be running well for PMs to have value, the shtf scenario is bulloney.

            We all know people choose their currency, and right now it looks like the young people are choosing cryptos.
            I cant see PMs being currency, people dont seem to want it.

            Dec 06, 2017 06:00 PM

            Always….liked those Mark Dice vids…………..show all the eighth grade mentality that our great Board of education has delivered …..
            There are now 17,000 drop out per day, according to PBS, just heard that yesterday.

            17k a day drop out?
            thats a big #, maybe they know something.

            soon the only thing anyone will need to know is how to use their smart phones.
            heck, talk of chipping people to connect them to the net has started.

            If the species survives the next few years, it is gonna be unimaginable to anyone alive today, including Musk and Hawkings.

            Dec 06, 2017 06:25 PM

            That is correct……….17,000 per Day……everyday……..the comment was that , “if you stacked all the decks, one on top of another , it would be as high as 5 Empire State buildings.” (approx. quote)……I mentioned it to my son, and repeated it, so , I know I am close to being correct on the statement.

            Dec 06, 2017 06:29 PM

            The inter cities of the USA , are a mess……big cities with Democrats running the give away programs in the grown……All the welfare moms, have snap, phones, and free rent, what else do they need…If , they need anything else, they just go to the Malls, and steal it.
            Like the Ball boys did in china….

    Scorpio Gold has been taken out to the woodshed and beaten to death….
    Down another 16% today on double the average volume. Pretty ugly….

    This wasn’t a good sign either:

    (SGN) (SRCRF) Scorpio Gold Announces Resignation of Director
    GlobeNewswire • December 1, 2017

    https://finance.yahoo.com/news/scorpio-gold-announces-resignation-director-213000875.html

      Dec 06, 2017 06:06 PM

      I was considering averaging down in my position here at year end, but I’m starting to become concerned on whether SGN can dig it’s way out of the hole it is in at this point. It is not good to see directors resigning…. usually means a shakeup is coming.

        Dec 06, 2017 06:28 PM

        I sincerely believed that they may have turned the corner with the toll milling arrangements this year at Gold Wedge mill, and the new Feasibility study on the old heap leach assets to process at Mineral Ridge mill. Those will be 2 new revenue centers if the company can survive.

        Over the last 2 weeks though, I’m starting to wonder if that ship has already sailed…..

        The huge volume of shares dumped by the institutional investors over the last month hasn’t helped their cause. They are also still waiting on permits to commence with exploration and mining activities at a few key targets, and it is odd how long things are taking since Nevada is usually pretty fast on permits.

        It is such a shame as they have real exploration potential in many of the smaller deposits surrounding their 2 mills, but it appears the markets have pulled he stopper out from the bottom of the bathtub and longer term holders are getting washed out here.

        Does anyone believe that they may have a chance for a #turnaround here, or is the jig up?

      Dec 06, 2017 06:08 PM

      Going to be a lot more going to the woodshed…….jmo

        Dec 06, 2017 06:26 PM

        You’re probably right OOTB.

          Dec 06, 2017 06:34 PM

          Hope I am wrong………..I say enough is enough………..the CLAW

          Dec 06, 2017 06:35 PM

          I don’t mind when they are exploration companies with moose pasture, but in this case Scorpio has 2 operating mills, all the infrastructure and workers in place, and the exploration work around them showed some real potential. Unfortunately they have just run this company into the ground and lost the confidence of their institutional holders.

          We’ve seen this film before, but it is always a shame when it happens.

            Dec 06, 2017 06:57 PM

            It is indeed a shame…..

      This seems to happen on a pretty regular basis.

        must be easy pickings……

          Dec 06, 2017 06:45 PM

          The exchanges keep getting hacked and bitcoins are stolen, and they just put out an article recently about the top 30 crypto hacks, and most of them were on the exchange level, and some the altcoins were the issue. However, this doesn’t seem to have spooked any investors and it simply charges higher and higher each day….

            Dec 06, 2017 06:13 PM

            Like they say this is the bubble of everything, Toronto Real Estate is a bubble waiting for a pin to happen, Bitcoin is double bubble and the conventional market is hubba bubba.

            Worst of all we live in a world that is beyond our control, most people can’t make a simple meal anymore or balance a checkbook. How will we fare when the microwave towers turn out our cell phones. We will then go from distracted thinking to no thinking. DT
