geof_junk Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Great article mn90403 but lets hope people think before they jump with the hype. "For those looking to invest in a cheaper treasure chest, silver is much less pricey at around $40 per ounce. It also has more industrial uses and is reflective, so come the apocalypse may actually be worth something in a trade." I still remember prospectors selling their gold to buy silver instead of keeping it when silver went to $50 an ounce. He’s been fossicking for almost 60 years. “I have other gold and hid it, but now don’t know where I put it,” he said. I hope I have not gone down that path.

Erik Oostra Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 there's a gold rush happening up in Queensland as well.. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-08-05/gold-rush-in-outback-queensland-as-prospectors-comb-cloncurry/12518732?fbclid=IwAR0ThohnSK_uXPVGZ9RRP8vGWAlfcEseLqbvpP6hox_yxxNAZenqamK4Hec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean the detector manufacturers & retailers will be posting ads, encouraging detector sales to take advantage of the high precious metals prices? Of course you 'Southerners' are just approaching the summer months. But I wouldn't be surprised to see that kind of advertising here in the N-hemisphere, too. Christmas is always a good time to tickle the imagination (don't forget the gifts on the 5th Day of Christmas -- some of those are sprinkled along the beaches, as the Impulse owners, among others, have been proving repeatedly).
