    How long has this been going on?
    Does it have any relation to the U.S. Mint's problem getting enough "newly-mined U.S. gold" to make Proof gold eagles?

  • That is pretty crazy. So basically China is mining so much gold, they can't find enough mines in China so they go to Alaska too? Does our government know about this? lol... not that they would do anything.

    Mint has enough gold and silver to produce proofs. They're spitting out record numbers of bullion aren't they. If they wanted to they could easily do a 10,000 - 20,0000 set run of silver and gold proofs. That would be only a drop in the bucket of what they are striking for bullion. It has nothing to do with resources, probably just an excuse to keep the extra work load down.

  • If indeed it is China’s plan to increase its gold holdings, but while maintaining an orderly market in the yellow metal, it is a smart move. The main reason, almost certainly, that China did not buy the IMF gold on offer – or even a large hunk of it – would be that to do so would have sent a very overt signal to the market and that the gold price would have skyrocketed as a result. Such a movement in the price might have been seen on global markets as a vote of no confidence in the dollar – and with China’s huge dollar-related foreign exchange holdings this would not suit its long term economic policy either.

    Good points. What better way to accumulate gold and dump dollars without ruffling too many feathers? Was it Mao who said that the West would sell the very rope that one could use to hang them with, if a profit could be made.

    How long will we continue to buy cheap crap from China so that they can cherrypick our resources? What's next, farmland? Or does VanJones still have dibs on that?
