Silver and gold had sideways weeks with gold spot price again threatening the $1,300 oz mark multiple times since our last Metals & Markets podcast
The gold spot price is closing the week slightly up at $1,290 per troy ounce in US dollars. While the spot silver price looks to be closing around $15.66 per troy ounce in USD.
In industry related news this week, the bankruptcy proceedings of Republic Metals Corporation continues. Reuters reported this week that the world’s largest gold refiner, Valcambi of Switzerland, put in a bid of $16 million Federal Reserve notes to acquire the now mothballed Miami, Florida... 150,000 square foot precious metal refinery site.
I will leave a link to this week’s Silver Doctors coverage on this ongoing Republic Metals bankruptcy bid story in the show notes. If you visit that link, keep an eye out in the bottom page comments section for a short and tongue-in-cheek video, made by this week’s guest (i.e. in response to this ongoing fire sale of Republic Metals remaining assets).
