        Quebec Site Visit Tour Day 1 – (OSK) Osisko Mining

        by @Leni on 26 Aug 2019

        “For all intents and purposes, the Osisko story starts back in 2004 with the acquisition of the Canadian Malartic site. Founders, John Burzynski, Sean Roosen and Robert Wares, used an innovative geological analysis model to analyze Quebec’s publicly available geological data (SIGEOM). The data revealed that the Canadian Malartic site had the potential for an open pit mining operation, which prompted the team to acquire the site.”

        “Seven years after acquisition, in 2011, Canadian Malartic poured its first gold bar, and 3 years after that, it was acquired in a friendly transaction by Agnico Eagle and Yamana Gold.”

        “Today, Osisko Mining, the company run by this mine-building team, is focused on developing the Windfall Project, which is located in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt between Val d’Or and Chibougamau in Quebec.”

    Chartster says:
    Gold is going to drop because of ‘real economic reasons’.
    It won’t be manipulation when it drops.
    —end—
    No, Chartster, it will drop for technical reasons and not for very long.

    I’m pretty sure you haven’t made one correct call about gold in all the years you’ve been here. For example:
    https://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=%24GOLD&p=D&yr=1&mn=1&dy=0&id=p20732072649&a=668461006

    Btw, whatever happened to the event you predicted for early July? You said something big was supposed to happen.

      Looked like a classic “fat finger” buy for gold yesterday. Interesting! Even more interesting, silver held its fat finger gain overnight which I think bodes well for both gold and silver. Havent seen that sort of pop in the gold market for a while.

        I agree with your reading even though the miners didn’t act very well in north america today.

    Silver at $17.96 and made it up to $17.99.

    Only a few pennies left before $18 is taken out and we need to set the alarm to wake up Spanky. 😉
