I made my first investment ever in a gold mining stock last week

Let me suggest to you that you view this as a trade and not an investment. Big difference. The miners do not trade in context with the metal itself.

So, it may be a great move, but do not "set it and forget it" like you would for an investment.

That is indeed my goal. I plan on holding this for 3 to 5 years and probably selling at 65+.
