		<description><![CDATA[Energy and basic materials took the benchmarks modestly higher on Friday, snapping a three-day losing streak. However, meager gains failed to prevent the Dow and S&#38;P 500 from suffering their worst weekly performance this year. Global economic concerns weighed on investors through the week and their influence carried onto Friday. Moreover, tepid housing data made matters worse on Friday, limiting gains. On Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) gained 0.3% and closed the day at 13,080.73. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) was also up 0.3% and finished Friday’s trading session at 1,397.11. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index edged up 0.1% and settled at 3,067.92.

		<description><![CDATA[The gold mining industry is watching its production costs surge amid rising energy prices, inflation and increasing labor costs. In 2012, Barrick Gold (NYSE: ABX), the world’s largest primary gold producer, says its total cash operating cost could increase 13% to 22%. Meanwhile, Newmont Mining (NYSE: NEM), another key gold stock, expects to see a 6%-to-14% rise in costs applicable to gold sales. The industry is hoping that rising gold prices will buoy the hike in production costs. An annual survey of industry predictions by the London Bullion Market Association forecasts gold could top $2,000 an ounce this year. The outlook – made by 26 leading precious metals analysts from the world’s largest bullion-dealing banks and trading houses – underscores bullish speculation of gold prices in the broader market.

		<description><![CDATA[European debt concerns once again weighed down the markets and dragged the Dow slightly lower, while the S&#38;P 500 and Nasdaq posted meager gains. Reports of Germany’s economy contracting during the end of 2011 and a downward revision of economic growth estimates by the European Union (EU) dented the markets. However, a late upward swing helped the markets extend their stay around five-month high levels. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) dropped 0.1% to settle at 12,449.45. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) edged up by a mere 0.03% to finish yesterday’s trading session at 1,292.48. The Nasdaq Composite Index added 0.3% to close at 2,710.76.

Borrowing costs recorded euro-era highs and domestic economic data was not strong enough to negate lingering concerns. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) plunged 1.1% to settle the day at 11823.48. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) also inched down 1.1% to close yesterday’s trading session at 1211.82. The Nasdaq Composite Index slumped 1.6% and finished at 2539.31. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) was up 2.5% to finish at 26.04.

		<description><![CDATA[Workers at  Freeport-McMoRan Copper &#38; Gold (FCX) decided to end a strike at Peruvian copper mine Cerro Verde that began almost two months ago. Union workers discontinued their work in September 2011 to back demands for higher pay. Cerro Verde has been operating the mine at two-thirds of the normal daily rate with supervisors and volunteer personnel. As per the union, no agreement was reached with the company. However, workers expect authorities from Arequipa region, where the mine is located, to issue a resolution in the coming days in order to resolve the dispute. The union called off the strike so that the regional government could take a decision. However, the country&#8217;s longest-running mining dispute still continues at Freeport’s Grasberg mine in Indonesia. Miners at Grasberg, the world&#8217;s second-biggest copper ]]></description>

The industry is oligarchic in structure, with a few producers accounting for the lion&#8217;s share of the output. The largest segment of the global metals market is iron and steel followed by aluminum. The iron and steel segment comprises more than half the industry in terms of volume. This industry includes metal ore exploration and mining services, as well as iron and steel foundries for smelting, rolling, forging, spinning, recycling, stamping, polishing and plating of iron and steel products, such as pipes, tubes, wire, spring, rolls and bars.

		<description><![CDATA[Think gold is another asset bubble waiting to pop? The strength of the mining stocks is telling a different story based on a mix of near-term and secular trends. The big picture story we know: in an era of fiat currencies being printed to fulfill quantitative easing policies, the barbarous relic has renewed its status as a monetary vehicle, a way for investment managers to diversify their exposure to dollars, euros, yen, or pounds. Holders of paper currency, printed to sustain numerous, ominous bubbles of debt, have an appetite for exchanging it for &#8220;hard&#8221; currency. And this hunger is only likely to continue. The near-term story is that we are in the midst of a seasonally strong period for gold where it&#8217;s very likely the yellow metal makes a run ]]></description>

I am. While gold and silver are up 30 percent this year, the mining stocks continue to lag. Barrick Gold (NYSE: ABX) and Newmont Mining (NYSE: NEM), the two largest gold producers in North America, are break-even for the year. Hecla Mining (NYSE: HL), the country’s largest silver producer, is down 35 percent even though earnings have doubled. The major South African gold stocks, like Gold Fields (NYSE: GFI) and AngloGold (NYSE: AU), are down for the year. The Gold Miners ETF (NYSE: GDX) has been extremely volatile and is break-even for the year. There are exceptions, but the overall trend ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Workers at Freeport-McMoRan Copper &#38; Gold&#8216;s (FCX) Grasberg mine in Indonesia plan to go on strike in the coming days after talks with the company failed to resolve a pay dispute, a move that could tighten global copper supplies and lift prices. A strike would be the second in two months at Grasberg, the world&#8217;s third biggest copper mine that also has the biggest gold reserves, after the eight-day stoppage in July 2011 caused production losses and helped push copper prices to three-month highs. The strike by 8,000 workers halted ore shipments and caused a production loss of 60,000 ounces of gold and 35 million pounds (15,876 tons) of copper. The company&#8217;s union in Indonesia, which represents about 8,000 workers, have demanded a pay rise to between $17.5 to $43 ]]></description>

Yanacocha, a joint venture between Newmont and Peru&#8217;s Buenaventura, is developing the $4.8 billion Minas Conga.

Yanacocha, a joint venture between Newmont and Peru&#8217;s Buenaventura, isdeveloping the $4.8 billion Minas Conga. It will be the largest investment in Peruvian mines ever producing 1.46 million ounces of gold in 2010. Minas Conga is located in the northern region of Cajamarca and will produce between 580,000 and 680,000 ounces of gold per year for the first five years. The mine should also produce between 155 and 234 million pounds of copper per year when it starts producing in 2014. The company released its second-quarter results for 2011 in July, thereby increasing its adjusted net income to $445 million or 90 cents per share ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Matthew Carr, Investment U Commodities Specialist Friday, August 12, 2011: Issue #1577 If you hold gold mining stocks in your portfolio, you’re probably a little miffed at the moment. While the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 1,880 points between July 21 and the morning of August 11, the price of gold shot up 10.5 percent. And that included a launch upward of six percent to start this week. But gold mining stocks haven’t benefited from the price of gold. Except for around a five-percent pop on Wednesday, most gold mining stocks were pummeled alongside the broader market. The Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (NYSE: GDX) tumbled over six percent from August 3 to August 8 as the price of gold was picking up speed. Earlier in the year, we ]]></description>

The stock market has lost ground in recent days due to this uncertain environment even as corporate earnings reports have broadly come ahead of expectations. With both sides in the debt debate sticking to their positions ahead of the Tuesday deadline, stocks will likely remain on edge today as well. The dismal GDP adds to the market&#8217;s woes. While the GDP report was expected to be on the soft side, the extent of the weakness and the negative revisions to the prior quarter&#8217;s numbers were very disappointing. The U.S. economy expanded at a lower-than-expected 1.3% rate in the second quarter, while the first quarter&#8217;s growth rate was sharply revised down to 0.4% from 1.9%.

The US mining giant insists that the work stoppage at the Grasberg mine in the remote province of Papua will not affect production. As per the company’s website Grasberg mine contains the world’s largest recoverable reserves of copper and the biggest single gold reserve. The workers called for a re-negotiating contract and management failed to re-negotiate contracts seeking wage increases from $1.8 to $15 per hour as the workers argue that other Freeport workers around the world are paid at least $15-30 per hour.

		<description><![CDATA[Barrick Gold Corporation (ABX) and its Chilean-based partner Antofagasta are likely to succeed mining rights for a $3.3 billion copper and gold project in Pakistan. Tethyan Copper Co. (TCC), a joint venture between Barrick Gold and Antofagasta, one of the world&#8217;s largest copper miners, has been granted an exploration license for the Reko Diq site. Tethyan, formerly a subsidiary of Australia&#8217;s Mincor Resources, has a 75% interest, and the remaining 25% are with the Balochistan government. The first stage of the project, which is expected to start production in 2015, would produce 200,000 tonnes of copper and up to 300,000 ounces of gold a year.

(NEM) is under scanner in Jakarta by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) for breaching rules on the foreign ownership of mining assets. The officials are probing whether Newmont should retain a controlling stake in Newmont Nusa Tenggara (PTNNT). PTNNT is Newmont’s most profitable Indonesian business. Newmont is required to reduce its stake in the subsidiary, which operates the vast Batu Hijau copper and gold mine in eastern Indonesia, to a minority holding, according to rules aimed at protecting assets considered as national interest. The Indonesian government would sell 7% stake that it will buy in the Indonesian unit of Newmont to local governments with an aim to diffuse opposition from some lawmakers against central government’s plan to buy  stake in PTNNT.

The project is located in the southern Argentinean province of Santa Cruz at an elevation of approximately 600 meters above sea level. In this regard, Goldcorp expects the average annual gold production during the first 5 years to be approximately 550,000 ounces at average cash costs of less than $200 per ounce of gold, resulting in the doubling of the plant throughput to 4,000 tonnes per day. Based on the existing reserves, the total mine life is estimated to be 12 years and the annual production is expected to average 340,000 ounces per year at cash costs of approximately $290 per ounce.

		<description><![CDATA[Costs are becoming a growing concern for gold miners across the world. In this regard, Goldcorp Inc. (GG) has decided to set aside its acquisition strategies for the time being and concentrate only on developing its large pipeline of projects in America. In the previous year itself, Goldcorp had pursued about half-dozen deals. In September 2010, Goldcorp agreed to buy gold miner Andean Resources Ltd for C$3.6 billion ($3.2 billion), trumping a rival bid from Eldorado Gold Corporation. Before this, in January, 2010, Goldcorp signed agreement to acquire Xstrata&#8217;s 70% interest in the El Morro copper/gold project in Chile through an agreement with midtier miner New Gold, the company that owns the remaining 30%. Though the acquisitions are no longer a priority for Goldcorp in 2011, it will not shy ]]></description>

Adjusted net earnings were $417.1 million, or 57 cents per share compared with $182.7 million or 25 cents per share in the fourth quarter of 2009.

Weak US new home sales data took the markets to session lows during the day before rebuilding hopes pumped in modest momentum. However, the day saw very tight volumes, reflecting investors’ concern over global worries and bank-dividend disappointment. After trading in the negative zone during the early session, the Dow Jones Industrial Average finally gained 0.6% and closed the day at 12,086.02. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 was up 0.3% and finished at 1,297.54. The Nasdaq Composite Index closed at 2,698.30 after surging 0.5%. Wednesday was one of the lightest days in terms of trading volumes on the New York Stock Exchange with composite volumes at a mere 3.9 billion shares. On ]]></description>
