Barrick announces âdrastic revisionâ of Pascua-Lama, may add partner
Canadaâs Barrick Gold (TSX, NYSE:ABX), which recently regained its status as the worldâs most valuable producer of the precious metal, has began a âdrastic revisionâ of its mothballed Pascua-Lama project in South America.
According to Chilean news outlet El Pulso (in Spanish), the companyâs President Kelvin Dushnisky revealed that management is re-evaluating plans for the gold, silver and copper mine straddling the border of Chile and Argentina, adding that Barrick does not rule out a possible partnership to bring the project to completion.
The giant project in the Andes has been shuttered since 2013, when a Chilean court ordered the company to halt construction over environmental concerns. Later that year, Barrick shelved the project citing massive cost overruns and nose-diving bullion prices.
âWe are looking at how to lower the costs, perhaps by digging a smaller pit, or aiming at higher grades (âŚ) we are very open to consider different options, but weâd only restart the project when the market is right,â Dushnisky said.
Analysts are now speculating that Barrickâs partner in Papua New Guinea, China-owned Zijin Mining Group, could be the one to help turn Pascua-Lama into a success by spreading the financial and political risk.
Dushnisky made it clear that the company has not given up on Pascua-Lama, said to hold one of the worldâs largest gold and silver resources with more than 15 million ounces of proven and probable gold reserves and 675 million ounces of silver contained within the gold reserves as of Dec. 31, 2013.

Global Central Banks Continue Longest Gold-Buying-Spree Since Vietnam War
While “greed was good” in the ’80s, it appears “gold is good” in the new normal. As much as the barbarous relic is despised by all the mainstream money-peddlers in public (aside from those who have left the familia like Alan Greenspan), it seems to be loved in private. Central banks have been net buyers of gold for eight straight years, according to IMF estimates, the longest streak since the first troops were deployed in The Vietnam War.

a little critique on shipiro ..me be wingnut?
One should be hesitant to read Shapiro for any reason. Whereas the ramblings of other extremists in the clogosphere can be mildly informative, Shapiro’s sheer smugness and exclusive reliance on straw man arguments pretty much sucks out any potential “fun” that could be had with his articles.
The Christian Science Monitor summarized his book Brainwashed: How Universities Indoctrinate America’s Youth thusly, “Shapiro makes sweepingâand many would say absurdâcharges that they promote atheism, sexual perversion (including pedophilia and statutory rape), and rampant environmentalism.”[10] It’s here we discover Shapiro has this odd habit of engaging in ad hominem attacks against anyone who is perceived to be even modrately left-wing. For instance, he labels a professor’s wife “brainless” when she talked about how much she treasures the Constitution (B.S. thinks we should stick it in a paper shredder[11]), and in the same book he accuses liberal professors of spreading “evil”. Said professor later accused Shapiro of grossly distorting aspects of this fairly meaningless event.[12]
He is a believer in some sort of homosexual recruitment taking place at colleges. In full irony mode he gets upset whenever someone accuses the right-wing of homophobia.
[edit] The troof is out there
Shapiro is most infamous for being a conspiracy nut, finding leftist propaganda virtually everywhere. Shapiro got in hot water when he pushed the “Friends of Hamas” manufactroversy, but that’s really only the tip of the iceberg that is his madness.[13] He is also the founder of TruthRevolt, a conservative media watchdog group who openly state that their mission is to “unmask leftists in the media for who they are, destroy their credibility with the American public, and devastate their funding bases.”
Shapiro has also written about birtherism and while trying to avoid being an out and out birther, his writings are extremely sympathetic to it.[14] He believes that it is perfectly logical for someone to believe someone as “un-American” as Obama was born overseas, but he concludes that it’s more likely that Obama was indoctrinated with Marxism while in an American school.
Along with his amazing superpower to interpret anything being fed into his frontal cortex as “propaganda”, he also possesses the ability to trace it back to the source: the Jews, of course![15]

ââIf you pay tuition, you’re sponsoring the militant homosexual agenda. If you pay taxes, you’re sponsoring the militant homosexual agenda. If your child majors in English, you’re sponsoring the militant homosexual agenda. Tell Billy to major in math.
âBen Shapiro[16]
In 2013, he published a book Bullies: How the Left’s Culture of Fear and Intimidation Is Silencing America, basically a tone argument stretched over 300 pages. For instance, Shapiro interpreted a federal judge’s 2010 ruling against California Proposition 8 as “using the power of his gavel to justify his sex life.”[17]
During a 2015 discussion about Caitlyn Jenner on the HLN network, Shapiro repeatedly addressed corespondent Zoey Tur, a transgendered woman, “Sir”, to which Tur placed her hand on Shapiro’s shoulder and replied âYou cut that out now, or youâll go home in an ambulance.â While perhaps not the most professional response to Breitbart”s odious trolling, it is an understandable reflex action when sitting within 10 feet of Ben Shapiro.[18] Benny has since filed a police report against Tur and stated that he plans to pursue any applicable charges.[19]

Where is his debate on the IRAN NUKE deal? Is  it treason? Where was Mr constitution  Cruz who said only way to remove a president is impeachment. So where was Cruz or any other the other hopefuls ALREADY in office. Where was Shapiro? Studying ?
Wanka
You have a point. Where is the constitutional debate on whether foreign born Cruz can even constitutionally run for office. You won’t see it on MSM.
Meanwhile Romney coming out against Trump.
Romney who said outsourcing was crucial to his sucess. ” His success.”
ROMNEY ADMITS buying a sweat shop with 120 young girls to bathroom. Mr Christian conservative?

ââThe immature rantings of Shapiro as a college student weren’t something he grew out of. Instead, his dumbest beliefs were reinforced by a right-wing culture that nurtured every nutty idea he had, and pressured him never to stray from a far right ideology. As a result, Ben Shapiro has become a professional idiot.

Ben “The SJW Slayer” Shapiro (B.S., b. 1984) is one of the youngest and most visible welfare recipients of the clogosphereâbasically a second-string Milo Yiannopoulos. He has written for Townhall.com and WND (which should tell you something right off the bat), but his real claim to fame was his close association with Andrew Breitbart, to the point where he became the primary editor for Breitbart News. He has since become even more popular among wingnuts for taking the pro-gun side in a “debate” with fellow leech Piers Morgan.
Basically his entire shtick is to mewl about the persecution of conservatives in Hollywood and academia where “east/west coast elites” are hard at work, indoctrinating the unwitting public into communism. Infamously, he has cited Sesame Street as an example of liberal propaganda.[2]
Ben and Breitbart are made for each other. They both take even the tiniest, most irrelevant morsel of “news”[3] and spin it into atrocities committed by the left. They both cry “Anti-Semetism!”[4][5] when confronted with facts, yet freely insert racist dog-whistles into their articles for effect.[6] They both earnestly use derogatory names like “SJW“. Ben has been caught a few times basing news articles on unsourced blogs, which later turned out to be false, yet never retracted them.[7][8] He tweets barely-literate screeds dozens of times per day.[9] He’s the hero they need.

Guess Armstrongs quote politicians couldn’t manage a bubble gum machine holds for GE too.
Same thing for GM and who knows how many more.
The chairman of General Electric and the man who once headed President Barack Obamaâs Council on Jobs and Competitiveness issued a scathing letter to his stockholders Friday, accusing Obamaâs policies of failing to create jobs and destroying the competitiveness that American companies need to succeed in the global market.
Jeffrey Immelt, General Electricâs CEO, wrote in his annual letter that most government policies are perpetuating âslow growth, poor job creation, populism, low productivity, higher regulation, poor policy and more slow growth,â according to the Daily Caller.
Oddly, the harsh words about the governmentâs abysmal performance were meant to be reassuring to the GE stockholders, because Immelt said the company is operating successfully despite the governmentâs policies.
And thatâs because itâs willing to make decisions that might seem harsh in the political world but are necessary in a real, competitive marketplace, he wrote. Misplaced government priorities, Immelt wrote, are destroying small businesses, the backbone of the U.S. economy.
In the fall, Immelt and GE found themselvesin the White Houseâs crosshairs because of a GE agreement with a French company that would move about 500 jobs out of the United States (a decision the Obama administration also blamed on Republicans, of course).
âIn business, if you donât lead these changes, you get fired; in politics, if you donât fight them, you canât get elected. As a result, most government policy is anti-growth,â Immelt wrote to stockholders. âIn the U.S., we want exports but seem to hate trade and exporters; globally, governments love small businesses but then regulate them to death.â
Immelt also criticized the administration for forcing American companies to adopt political correctness at the cost of business effectiveness.
âIt doesnât do any good to win awards for good governance if you are getting eaten alive by competitors,â Immelt wrote. âOur sole truth of performance is in the market, winning with customers and investors.â
Winning with customers. Winning with investors. And savaging the performance of the Obama White House.

I haven’t heard of him either but he could do the same for any of them so why Trump? As far as being a christian are THEY? How many times did Cruz lie. Let’s not even get started on Rubio or Hitlery. They will throw a blanket over the Christians of the south heads. Do they have a short memory of Muslims demanding crosses go down before Trump or blind to the constitution their trying to destroy that separates religion from politics? That same constitution that maintains that freedom.
Three posts by armstrong on Super Tuesday that about sums it up. Last link he mentions even UK noticing. That GOP complaining Trump isn’t conservative enough but behind the scenes their mad saying he doesn’t fit in to their business as usual. We can see that by their reaction. They don’t like someone pushing back. Too bad đ t
Buygold @ 20:18-I am surprised you have never heard of him-he is a quite smart debater.
Watch him deflate that pompous ass Piers Morgan on the 2nd amendment!
Thanks Moggy
With that cute little praying kitty pulling for us I don’t see how we can lose. Â Adorable!! I figure once we get in motion we go up for about 2 1/2 .years. Giddy-up!!

Okay, please answer this one. What does it take to once again become a successful gold/silver bug in this world?? Â Will I live long enough to see it happen again??? :o)
To become a successful gold/silver bug implies increasing one’s personal wealth. That means in anyone’s horoscope that the second house (or area concerning money) and/or its rulers must be involved in aspects of harmony, both by natal positions and by transit.
To give an example, Jupiter is the ruler of my 2nd house. Jupiter’s current transit is in retrograde motion until May 9th, therefore there will be no increase in my personal wealth. In addition to that, Saturn (planet of poverty) is transiting my 2nd house of wealth opposing (aspect of inharmony) natal Mercury…money is being sucked out of my cash stash so that wealth is dwindling.
As I am a gold/silver bug my personal horoscope doesn’t bode well for a Moon shot anytime soon but we may catch a break in late May/early June when transiting Jupiter forms a  sextile (an aspect of harmony) to my natal Jupiter.

Trump cannot be bought by Wall Street. Trump cannot be controlled by the club so they will try anything to get him out.
They either fail to see it is there fault and blame him instead or they know and don’t care because they have brokered the elections so long they don’t even hide their arrogance toward us anymore. I’ll go with the second. They are busy trying to hold on to power and will have no limits. There should be a cartoon with the Demos and GOP with Roman helmets and Trump on a cross.
Auandag, Silverngold
Who the hell is Ben Shapiro anyway? Why is his opinion important? Is he married to Mary Shapiro ex-head of the SEC? We know how well the Shapiro fox guarded the Goldman henhouse.
These people are really beyond belief.
