Pan Asia Gold Exchange welcomed for reducing influence of concentrated shorts
8:50p ET Wednesday, June 29, 2011
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Cheviot Asset Management Investment Director Ned Naylor-Leyland, who will speak at GATA's Gold Rush 2011 conference in London in August (http://www.gatagoldrush.com/), today has published at 24hGold a little welcoming essay for the new Pan Asia Gold Exchange in Kunming, China. Naylor-Leyland's essay is accompanied by a video with comments from GATA heroes Adam Fleming, chairman of Wits Gold; Peter Hambro, chairman of Petropavlovsk PLC; and, apparently being seen in a public forum for the first time, London gold trader and CFTC whistleblower Andrew Maguire, who will make his first public address at Gold Rush 2011. Maguire says he expects the new Chinese exchange to reduce the impact of concentrated short positions in the gold and silver futures markets elsewhere.
Naylor-Leyland's essay is headlined "Andrew Maguire Supporting Renminbi Contracts on the New Pan Asia Gold Exchange" and you can find it and the video at 24hGold here:

Lewis E. Lehrman on How to Solve the U.S. Debt Problem
Lewis E. Lehrman, chairman of the Lehrman Institute, sponsor of The Gold Standard Now project, advises that to reduce the $1 1/2 trillion U.S. deficit, the Republican Party must initiate an investment program.
Working Americans are not saving, which enables the banks to lead the country into a cycle of debt, leverage, boom, panic, and bust.
Lehrman says: "Eliminating the budget deficit of a trillion and a half dollars cannot be done overnight. The proposal by U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan was very dramatic -- one Republican called it radical -- but it was not happily received. The solution, of course, is to design an American program for prosperity, because you can solve these entitlement problems with a growing economy.
"We need a tremendous program of investment, and investment comes from savings. When you pay savers, middle-income professionals and working people, 0 percent at the bank, you are not going to encourage them
to save. Then we are left with a bank cycle of debt, leverage, boom, panic, and bust."

Sona Drills 85.4g Gold/Ton Over 4 Metres at Elizabeth Gold Deposit,
Extending the Mineralization of the Southwest Vein on the Property
Company Press Release, October 27, 2010
VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- Sona Resources Corp. reports on five drillling holes in the third round of assay results from the recently completed drill program at its 100 percent-owned Elizabeth Gold Deposit Property in the Lillooet Mining District of southern British Columbia. Highlights from the diamond drilling include:
-- Hole E10-66 intersected 17.4g gold/ton over 1.54 metres.
-- Hole E10-67 intersected 96.4g gold/ton over 2.5 metres, including one assay interval of 383g of gold/ton over 0.5 metres.
-- Hole E10-69 intersected 85.4g gold/ton over 4.03 metres, including one assay interval of 230g gold/ton over 1 metre.
Four drill holes, E10-66 to E10-69, targeted the southwestern end of the Southwest Vein, and three of the holes have expanded the mineralized zone in that direction. The Southwest Vein gold mineralization has now been intersected over a strike length of 325 metres, with the deepest hole drilled less than 200 metres from surface.
"The assay results from the Southwest Zone quartz vein continue to be extremely positive," says John P. Thompson, Sona's president and CEO. "We are expanding the Southwest Vein, and this high-grade gold mineralization remains wide open down dip and along strike to the southwest."
