Ned Naylor-Leyland: Gold market is a game of musical chairs

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold (and Silver):

In commentary posted yesterday at Stockopedia, GATA's friend Ned Naylor-Leyland, a fund manager for Cheviot Asset Management in London, remarks on the game of musical chairs being played in the gold market, where even the so-called physical market has only a single ounce of gold to support every 100 ounces that have been sold to gold investors, who have been largely unsuspecting until lately. Most gratifyingly, Naylor-Leyland writes: "That gold is manipulated and managed by banks is a matter (repeatedly) of public record." Yes, public record, not "conspiracy theory." Naylor-Leyland's commentary is headlined "Gold: Could the Last Person to Get Their Coat Please Turn the Lights Off?" and you can find it at Stockopedia here:

Preliminary Feasibility Study Completed for Seabridge Gold's KSM Project

Study Reports Reserves of 30.2 Million Oz. Gold, 7 Billion Lbs. Copper,
133 Million Oz Silver, 210 Million Lbs. Molybdenum

Base Case Life of Mine Cash Operating Costs Estimated at $144/oz. Gold Produced
(Net of Base Metal Credits)

Toronto -- Seabridge Gold Inc. has announced results from a National Instrument 43-101 compliant preliminary feasibility study of its 100-percent owned KSM project in northern British Columbia, Canada. The study was prepared by Wardrop, a Tetra Tech company, a major international engineering and consulting firm.

Seabridge President and CEO Rudi Fronk says, "The study confirms that the KSM project now hosts the largest gold reserve in Canada and one of the largest in the world. KSM is projected to provide an extraordinary mine life of more than 35 years with estimated cash operating costs well below the current average of the major gold producers. Estimated capital costs are in line with those of comparable, large-scale, undeveloped gold-copper projects and KSM has the advantage of being located in a low-risk jurisdiction."
