Expectations of widening interest differentials between the United States and the rest of the world will weigh heavily on the dollar’s performance making gold an attractive investment. Overall demand for gold has remained strong over the past few years, but mining capacity has slipped due to aging equipment and rising development costs. Sierra Gold could stand to benefit from this as the company has discovered gold deposits on its Pampana North property valued at $588M (Price of valuation is set at $626.50). Recent company news has suggested that laboratory testing of the property has reported that gold grades in the area are six times greater than initially believed. In addition to this, there is a hard rock formation which is being tested for the presence of gold and rare earth minerals.
