Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
While the World Gold Council undertaking reported in
the Gulf News story below may be little more than a
cover for more gold leasing, it still may be encouraging

This is offered by an expert especially respected by
GATA:
quot;Either Barrick Chairman Peter Munk took the wrong speech
with him to the London conference or Barrick's banks pulled
the plug.
quot;I suppose that it is also possible that Barrick is talking

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Here's a great letter just sent to the South
African newspaper Business Day by Durban
Roodeport Deep CEO Mark Wellesley-Wood. It

financial arrangements that force it into
poverty and exploitation by foreign powers

made it a target for the great golden bull.
