Why This Junior Gold Miner in Nevada Soared 200% in 2014

At the end of 2013, I predicted the junior gold (GDXJ) and silver miners (SIL) would outperform the S&P500 in 2014. I was right so far in 2014. THe GDXJ is up over 36% on the year while the S&P500 is up under 5%. However, one of the junior gold miners that I predicted would be a major winner back in December of 2013 has far outpaced the mining and overall market indices by a wide margin. The small junior miner is up over 200% in 2014. Find out which one and why.

Could This Be The Next Major Gold Producer In Colombia?

Red Eagle is only weeks away from publishing a Bankable Feasibility Study on a project which I believe will come into production in the next 18 months. The 320 sq. km Santa Rosa Gold Project in Antioquia has already produced a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) that shows the potential for production of around 50k ounces per year with low cash costs around $620 an ounce. This means that possibly within 18 months Red Eagle has the ability to cash flow over $60 million of profit if gold stays around $1300 an ounce. Red Eagle flies above the others as the project has one of the best economic profiles in the junior mining business.

Five Ways To Profit In Coming Clean Energy Boom

Please note I just returned from Medellin, Colombia and toured what I believe will be the first modern gold mining operation approved for mining by the Colombian government. They have an immense amount of local support and the project appears to have the best chance of being the first to get into production due to the high grade and underground mining. It could be beginning production in possibly the next 18 months. Currently the company has a market cap of around $20 million, but in 18 months time could produce $60 million a year of profit if gold remains at $1300 per ounce. The management team is top notch with the COO building more than ten mines all over the world. The stock is currently trading at a discount to its last financing and less than their major shareholders who have invested $55 million in this project. Its important to note there are no warrants and the IPO was more than 6 times than what it is now. I intend to publish a full report of my findings of the mine site visit to my premium subscribers.

Why Capital May Be Flowing From Equities to Junior Miners in 2014

The gold (GLD) and silver (SLV) price may be reversing over the next couple of weeks. The junior miner gold ETF (GDXJ) is reversing above the 50 day moving average and breaking above its recent three month downtrend. When the huge cash positions waiting on the sidelines or taking profits in the equity market rising on low volume return to the ignored resource sector the gains could be huge. Already the volume in GDXJ in 2014, has jumped outpacing 2012 and 2013. On the other hand the S&P500 has been rising on light volume which is often a warning sign that the extended rally is getting exhausted. This indicates to me that possibly the large institutions are accumulating the juniors after all the retail investors jumped ship. Prices could jump rapidly in the Toronto Venture Exchange where most of the legit junior miners are traded. These small cap juniors could gap higher as the major institutions are hardly exposed to the mining sector at all. It appears that some of my charts are showing a potential reversal in the precious metals. Get ready for an incredible bounce higher in precious metals. Here are five reasons why.

This Junior Gold Miner is Trading at Less Than One Third of its Book Value

Gold and silver mining stocks are going through a pullback after jumping considerably in the first quarter of 2014. Despite the correction in gold mining equities, I have searched for undervalued gold situations with large deposits and the financing to advance the project. Eventually, the junior gold and silver stocks will rebound magnificently from these historic oversold levels. Value investing contrarians look at this junior gold miner trading at less than one third of its book value.

China Must Look Abroad For Metals and Energy To Support Growth

Headlines about a Chinese economic slowdown may get good web traffic, but the real story is that China is buying up uranium and other resources around the world, says Gold Stock Trades writer Jeb Handwerger. Meanwhile, tensions in Russia highlight the massive country's resource dominance in natural gas, oil, uranium, platinum group metals, rare earths and nickel. Handwerger tells The Mining Report that North America is already acting to develop resources that can meet both domestic and international demand—and this global geopolitical uncertainty is an investment opportunity.

Look For Leverage To Rising Gold Prices With No Expiration

The long term trend in gold remains higher and this correction may provide opportunities for precious metals investors to gain exposure to highly leveraged vehicles to the gold price. This stock is like an option on the gold price with no decaying time value or expiration. This asset is one of the largest undeveloped deposits in the world still 100% controlled by a junior. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent on this asset with 792 drill holes yet investors can purchase the company for around a $40 million market cap way below its book value.

Pullbacks In Gold and Silver May Be Buying Opportunities as Trends Turn Bullish

When no one was buying and in fact shorting precious metals and energy, I was one of the only writers who said at the time, "This instability in the Middle East and around the world means investors should look for assets that maintain value during chaotic times. Precious metals and energy could be one of the safest areas to hedge against rising Middle East turmoil." Now 8 weeks later gold has rallied $200, silver has gone up more than $6 and oil is about to break through multi-year highs and could move to $150 a barrel. All over the headlines investors are scrambling for safe havens as the U.S. prepares to invade Syria.

Platinum and Palladium Outperforming Gold, Silver and Copper

The geopolitical instability from South Africa may have a significant impact on the supply demand equation for Platinum Group Metals. These metals are crucial to reduce noxious emissions from vehicles as they are used in catalytic converter to lower tailpipe emissions. No suitable economic replacements for PGM’s have been found. Vehicle sales are increasing worldwide especially from emerging economies. Emission standards are being implemented in emerging economies. Demand for PGM’s is skyrocketing as we are seeing a rebound in the North American, Japanese and Chinese automobile sector. Supply is extremely tight from South Africa. Major strategic consumers could be actively searching for safe and secure supplies of platinum and palladium. Palladium is the only metal that is higher over the past year. Palladium is up over 14% over the past year while platinum, copper, gold then silver are still in negative territory. Palladium and platinum are showing great relative strength in this precious metals correction.

Value Investors Entering Junior Mining Sector?

Turn off the negative news that is broadcasted to misdirect and confuse investors. Follow the capital to quality situations like these few examples which are building value during challenging times. It is during these difficult times in the resource sector when the greatest opportunities are discovered. Remember American Barrick Resources started off as a 16,000 ounce producer in the 80's down market in gold and grew to be Barrick Gold Corp, the largest gold producer in the world.
