says who

running dogs in the CCP ?

how convenient and timely for a communist country in the midst of an ecomomic collapse ?

well then...will they start selling cold certificates or move to a gold backed currency ?

CCP , and communists in general, being soooo honest and trustworthy ,,im gonna go invest right now !!!

not.

i think they are lieing,, just a gut feeling , and a reasonable assumption based on their WTO history.

https://blog.providentmetals.com/how-much-does-it-cost-to-produce-an-ounce-of-gold.htm

A new metric has since been developed by the World Gold Council to report the “all-in sustaining costs” of mining gold. These numbers report that the cost of extracting an ounce of gold is actually over $1,000 per ounce, well above the aforementioned numbers. And since gold is currently trading at just over $1,200 per ounce, it explains why mining companies have had less-than-stellar profits.

Looking through some of the articles there, the site seems very questionable.

"The gold fields of the Witwatersrand Basin in South Africa are, by a landslide, the largest single gold producing district in the world. It has produced some 2 billion ounces over a century of mining and at an average grade of 15 g/t Au with a current head grade of 6-10 g/t Au and they still have estimated reserves of some 1,161 billion ounces (36,000 tonnes)..."

I don’t know if they’re still in operation, but awhile back there was a Chinese company that would sell you gold-plated tungsten bars. Such bars cannot be differentiated from solid gold bars by a standard density test.

The company was upfront about this. And they sold the bars for “novelty purposes”. But should the buyer later use the bars as part of a scam, you couldn’t blame the company, right?

It’s a long way from having 1,000 tons of “estimated reserves” to having 1,000 tons of gold bars in a neat stack in front of you.

I'll trade you $1,250 for every ounce of gold you can come up with. Heck, make it $1,300.

Trust the CCP to act like the CCP: they will lie, they will cheat, they will steal, they will murder.
