    McEwen Copper requests major tax breaks for Los Azules copper mine in Argentina

    Canadian miner McEwen Copper, a subsidiary of McEwen Mining, has submitted a request to join an Argentine government incentives program that would give it significant tax breaks for its Los Azules copper project in San Juan province, it said.

    Once the government gives McEwen the green light, its corporate tax rate for the Los Azules project will fall from 35% to 25%, and it will be exempt from value-added tax during construction and from export duties.

    Gold falls .4%

    Spot gold lost 0.4% to $3,222.49 an ounce, as of 0852 GMT. Bullion hit a record high of $3,245.42 earlier in the day.

    “Market sentiment has improved a bit this morning after President Trump excluded electronics and smartphones from US tariffs. This has partly caused a dip in gold prices, likely due to profit-taking,” said Zain Vawda, an analyst at MarketPulse by OANDA.

    Spot silver was steady at $32.27 an ounce, while platinum added 1% to $952.10. Palladium gained 2.2% to $935.38.

    Gold Price levels hit record highs

    The precious metal remains supported as concerns about an intensifying global trade war continue to place downward pressure on the dollar and Treasurys amid diminishing faith in the U.S. as a reliable trading partner. 

    Gold’s price, which soared 6% last week and trades 23% higher since the start of the year, seesawed Sunday evening as investors digested news that recently announced U.S. tariff exemptions on smartphones, computers, and semiconductors could be temporary, with the president later pledging a national security trade investigation into the chip sector.

    Gold, not Bitcoin, becomes investor safe haven

    Gold prices rallied on Tuesday, regaining ground after a slight pullback at the start of March. Spot gold was up 0.4%, reaching $2,900.78 an ounce as of 7:30 AM UTC. The rally was supported by a weakening US dollar spot index that has dropped to 103.5, a 24-hour 0.2% downtick.

    Gold’s more “resilient” performance against the dollar is giving investors more incentives to turn against Bitcoin, with its price falling by more than $15,400 over the past month.

    “Now that Bitcoin fell below $77K, it’s down 30% from its January record high,” Schiff posted on X. “It’s hard to see the rationale for the U.S. government holding Bitcoin as a reserve asset when it can lose that much market value so quickly. The rationale will be even harder to see when it’s down 50%.”

    Florida Senator Proposes Bill To Recognize Gold, Silver, And Digital Currency As Legal Tender

    Follow up to Gold and Silver may be adopted as legal tender in Florida

    Sponsored by Senator Rodriguez, Senate Bill 132 aims to redefine financial transactions, taxation, and payment of debts using these alternative forms of currency.

    The legislation would also exempt transactions involving gold, silver, and related currencies from taxation. The move reflects a growing interest in alternative monetary systems as a hedge against economic uncertainties.

    The proposed bill includes several significant measures:

    Definition of Legal Tender:

    Tax Exemptions:

    Government Acceptance:

    Prohibition on Compulsion:

    Regulatory Framework:

    If passed, SB 132 would make Florida one of the few states to officially recognize gold, silver, and digital currencies as legal tender.
