Argentina - The government dreams of a gold-mine that it would produce more than all the tobacco
In 2 years or less, a mining company might begin to produce nearly 5.000 kilos of gold per year in salting of Arizaro. The annual value of his production would overcome that of the tobacco production. But it is still not known how many income the mine would represent for the provincial arks by way of privileges.
The Mining secretariat anticipates that the panorama might change even more when at the end of next year 2011 they begin the development of the silver deposit The Quevar.

I pray: good investment?
The gold has a long history and awake confidence in the human beings. Nevertheless, it is necessary to take some forecasts.
The same that happens with the properties, there exists an ancestral culture of which the investment in gold is never going to defraud us.
But what often the investors spend for high is his physical and chemical properties, which allow him to have important industrial uses and prop his value up. 91 % of the world demand of gold is principally for jewelry shop and in minor measurement for uses in the electronics, odontology, medals and coins.
Another characteristic of the gold is that it does not present a standard relation between the levels of offer, demand and price, which determines that this metal does not present the typical behavior of prices of the prime matters, which in general terms obey the laws of supply and demand of the market.
In moments as the current one, where there exists the strong fear of that turns the “bogey of the high inflation” of the years ‘70, “to return to the future and to buy a few grams of gold” does not seem to be a bad option.

Argentina wants to turn into world mining potency in a decade
The secretary of Mining of Argentina, Jorge Mayoral, said in Toronto (Canada) that the target of Buenos Aires is to turn in that in a decade Argentina is one of the world potency in the field of the mining.
“We come in this opportunity for the ninth year in a row to mention to the investing community of the world that Argentina is the new mining border that has the world to be able to expand and to be able to develop. Argentina has an immense geologic potential and has a very generous surface that will allow us to do mining in a lot of time. We are starting to the sector, are putting it in a way vigorous and supported in a criterion of generation of active politics. The mining sector has grown of exponential form, 1.014 % in investments terms. We have happened of having 12 mining projects to more than 400. We have duplicated the source of direct employment, have almost trebled the source of indirect employment and believe that we are happening in a very good moment. We aspire that at the end of the decade of 2020, Argentina is the big mining player of the world. We aspire at the end of that decade to be the big players of copper of the world, of gold, in the short silver time, leaders in lithium, borato and phosphate.” Foreman said.
Foreman also recounted to the project Easter - mud that the Canadian company Barrick Gold develops on the border between Argentina and Chile and that considers to be an example for other countries. Foreman anticipated that two countries are considering to be another 5 binational projects.
“Mud in Argentina and Easter in Chile is the milestone that marks the new way of doing mining in the countries that we share geology across the geopolitical borders. Two countries we have undertaken the commitment to integrate into strategic terms to be able to develop this business type miners as only one business unit. There Barrick Gold is enjoying very good health, produced by Canadian capitals. It is going to mean for Argentina of the order of 3.200 million dollars of investment, 15.000 work places for three years in the places most forgotten the geography. We are happy to be able to take it forward.”

Argentina also good-looking for the gold
Ernesto Acevedo, of the bank Credicoop., he affirms: "There is still not in the mind of the small investor to bet for the gold. Also there is information that they move more to the speculation than to real movement of the market. For example, all the mining megaprojects in gold in Argentina that exists in march produce 343 tons of this metal, of which 65 % is a pure speculation, since in the deals only 8 % of the abstracted gold is used. For a small investor the dollars keep on being looked by the changes that it possesses, also the deposits by installments fixed in weight and dollars, further away that the valuations are stabilized keep on being attractive capitalization hardware.”
Nevertheless, the gold advances like one more option to diversify investments and to obtain profit (26 % only in 2009) in times where they reign the turbulency.

The gigantic emission of dollars has inflated the reservations of all the countries, which that's why want to get rid of them in exchange for other coins, gold or investments. From the point of view of the world crisis, the maintenance of high reservations finances the North American rescue to the detriment of the rest of the world.
