The Company successfully completed its most recent financing, (news release dated February 7, 2020), and is currently planning its exploration and development objectives for the upcoming quarters. With the recent acquisition of an additional gold property located along the Cadillac Fault in Val d’Or and proximal to the Exxeter gold deposit, the Company is focussed on enhancing shareholder in 2020 through the furtherance of its exploration assets and the acquisition of strategic gold targets.
In 2019, Gold had its best performance since 2010 when it gained 30 percent in the fallout of the housing and financial crisis, rising by 18.4% in US dollar terms. Gold has outperformed major global bond and emerging market stock benchmarks in the same period (see chart below).
Gold continues to break higher in 2020 despite a strong US dollar, with a well-known chart set-up looking like it is driving to move higher according to recent article by DailyFX. On February 19th, 2020, Citi upgraded its six-to-12-month price target for gold to $1,700/oz and upgraded its 2020 base case average gold price forecast from $1,575 to $1,640/oz.
Citi commodity strategists also projected fresh nominal highs of $2,000/oz to be breached in the next 12 to 24 months. Gold is breaking above a major point of resistance and moving up to new multi-year highs. “We are incredibly pleased with what is happening in the gold sector at the moment. Astorius is well positioned to capitalize upon the continued outstanding performance of gold and we expect to make significant strides this year”, stated Arthur Brown, President and Director.
