🤝 Abitibi Acquires
Abitibi Metals (CSE: AMQ), a sponsoring partner of TNBR, secures 100% of Beschefer Gold Project in Quebec, Canada.
Highlights of previous intersections:
28.65 metres of 4.92 g/t gold, including 9.1 metres of 11.39 g/t gold.
5.57 metres of 55.63 g/t gold, including 1.23 metres of 224 g/t gold.
8.75 metres of 13.07 g/t gold.
CEO Jon Deluce says the acquisition strengthens Abitibi’s portfolio. Beschefer's high-grade intercepts show strong near-term resource potential.
To complete the deal, the company issued 2,033,672 shares to Wallbridge Mining (TSX: WM) and made $3M in expenditures.
Well done!
😎 Gold Up, Dollar Down
Gold prices rose 0.3% to $2,918.65 an ounce, heading for their best week in six with a 2% gain.
A weaker U.S. dollar, trade concerns, and economic uncertainty supported bullion, while markets awaited U.S. non-farm payrolls data and a speech from Fed Chair Jerome Powell. The dollar index is on track for its worst week since November, boosting gold’s appeal.
Silver fell 0.3% to $32.54, platinum dropped 0.2% to $964.30, and palladium edged up 0.3% to $945.11.
