• Gold ETFs add billions
  • US election provides uncertainty and shift into bullion
  • WA gold stocks are on the rise

 

Gold returns had another strong month during August, helped by expectations of the first Fed rate cut in four long years, which drove the US dollar and Treasury yields lower.

Friday afternoon. Another weekend upon us. That’s gold. (And wet, if you’re in Perth.)

Let’s make this relatively brief as we cover off some of the relevant weekly news, take a quick look at the latest ASX goldie performers and get on outta here…

The World Gold Council (WGC) says global physically backed gold ETFs added US$2.1bn in August, extending their inflow streak to four months.

“All regions reported positive flows: Western funds once again contributed the lion’s share and funds listed in other regions registered their largest monthly inflow on record,” WGC said in a note.

“The current macro environment is tough to read due to the swirl of contradictory economic data releases.

“Arguably the pivotal US election is adding to the uncertainty and has likely fostered an increase in investors expressing their view through options markets.

“Gold ‘spreading’ positions in options, a normally quieter corner of the gold market, are at a multi-year high, suggesting that investors are either hedging or speculating on both a rate-cutting cycle and the outcome of the US election.”

Top ASX gold stories this week

Far East Gold (ASX:FEG) received a cornerstone investment from Chinese silver miner Xingye of $14m for a 19.99% stake in the explorer – a 21% premium to the last traded price and 47% higher than its recent $4m cap raise at 13.6c a share.

Mineral recoveries of >95% from three gold and antimony have been realised from metallurgical testing of Siren Gold’s (ASX:SNG) Auld Creek endowment.

Gold flotation recoveries came in at 95-98%, while antimony recoveries were modestly 64-90% when using copper sulphate as an activator.

Lab specialists changed that to lead nitrate as an activator and boosted antimony recoveries up between 71-97%.

Westgold Resources (ASX:WGX) expanded a new campaign at Bluebird, Southern Cross Gold (ASX:SXG) discovered a new, large gold-antimony anomaly below the historical Golden Dyke mine, and Spartan Resources (ASX:SPR) is aiming ‘well north of seven figures’ on its Never Never gold reserve.
