Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Photocopies of correspondence between the Bank
of England and Peter Hambro of Zoloto Mining Ltd.
in London have been posted at:

For some time now Hambro has been posing to
British government financial officials the same
sort of questions GATA has been posing to
the U.S. Treasury Department and the Federal
Reserve System. We think that the British
response -- essentially a refusal to answer
the questions and to reveal what British
monetary policy really is -- suggests that the
questions CANNOT be answered without
wrecking the manipulation on which much of
world finance now is based and without
endangering the manipulators.

So GATA is more resolved than ever to press
for answers to these questions in the United
States. More on that soon.

Please post this as seems useful.

CHRIS POWELL, Secretary/Treasurer
