Eric Sprott not only does the talk, but is doing the work as well - the target size of the fund is 500 mil and it shows that China is not only interested in Gold, but in the Gold and Silver mining companies as well. This is the sign where the money will be coming from in the resource sector. China knows when to sell and when it is time to buy.
Zijin Mining Group is the largest Gold and the second largest Copper producer in China and this move shows that smart money are already shopping for the projects to feed their pipeline.
We hope that Rob McEwen is keeping his phone line open and has translated Los Azules Copper presentation in Chinese as well...

Find yourself in the picture. It is all about emotions and our ability to control it. We listen to those who has been there and did it already: stay discipline, stay focused."

"Price of Gold and Silver will be the main driving forces for all survived companies. Eric has very bold prediction for Gold going to $2400 by next year: "The most important thing in the precious metals business - the price of precious metals. They all go up if the price of Gold will go up. The question is which one will go up 200% or 500%. If the Gold will go up to $2400, I can bet that the Gold miners index goes up 200%. What we are trying to do: where is the one which will go up 1000%."
