Idaho gold mine wins federal approval despite objection

A contested mine in Central Idaho that will produce gold and antimony earned the U.S. Forest Service’s final approval following a lengthy environmental review and objections from the Nez Perce Tribe, which will lose access for decades to federal lands guaranteed by a U.S. treaty.

“This approval elevates the Stibnite Gold Project to an elite class of projects in America that have cleared NEPA,” Jon Cherry, Pepetua’s president and CEO, said in a statement.

“The tribe’s treaties with the United States are the supreme law of the land and remain binding,”

    “Silver Guru” David Morgan gives his take on current silver market

    In a recent interview with Liberty and Finance, the esteemed precious metals analyst David Morgan, widely known as the “Silver Guru,” delivered a compelling analysis suggesting that silver prices are on the cusp of a significant surge. Drawing upon his extensive knowledge of the precious metals market, Morgan highlighted the current lack of substantial upside resistance for silver, hinting at a potential rapid upward movement that has yet to materialize fully.

    “I mean, we’re high enough in the silver price for it to have very little upside resistance and to be able to just move, move, and move some more, and it hasn’t started yet.”

    Morgan believes that broader market dynamics and the inherent appeal of silver as a monetary and industrial metal will eventually draw them back in.

    Gold to new record high

    Gold surged above $3,400 to a record high on Monday, as the dollar weakened and uncertainty over the economic impact of U.S.-China trade tensions spurred demand for safe-haven bullion.

    Spot gold rose 2.6% to $3,415.24 an ounce at 10:46 a.m. ET (1446 GMT). Prices hit a record high of $3,424.25 earlier in the session.

    U.S. gold futures rose 3% to $3,426.30.

    “As tariff tensions continue to move at a fevered pitch, we continue to see gold prices move to the upside as a safe haven response,” said David Meger, director of metals trading at High Ridge Futures.

    Gold higher, Silver edged

    Gold edged higher on Friday, after hitting a two-week low in the previous session, but easing trade tensions and a strong jobs report kept prices on track for a second consecutive weekly loss.

    Spot gold was up 0.5% at $3,255.01 an ounce as of 9:41 a.m. ET (1341 GMT), after hitting its lowest since April 14 on Thursday. Prices were down 2.1% for the week, after hitting a record high of $3,500.05 on April 22.

    “Gold looks like $3,500 may be a top for a little while, especially if some trade deals start to come through and some risk on appetite starts to break through the kind of negative euphoria that we’ve been seeing since the tariff talks,” said Daniel Pavilonis, senior market strategist at RJO Futures.

    Spot silver edged 0.1% lower to $32.35 an ounce, platinum rose 1% to $967.70, and palladium gained 0.9% to $949.00.
