A few updates to the list of big recent discovery holes and "hot stocks"
Hopefully as this list develops the charts show the all too familiar rise and fall risk.
If we see an improved market in the next couple of years some of these stocks will likely feature and some of the fallers will build back on their initial discovery holes.
Some recent discoveries are in tightly share structures with good insider ownership.
Others will likely prove to have been the one hit wonders.
Review management, insiders and financing !

Martin Luther King - I Have a Dream
On August 28th, 1963, at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, Martin Luther King stepped to the podium in front of the Lincoln Memorial. Around 10 minutes into his speech, King sounded as though he were wrapping up when Mahalia Jackson, the gospel singer and King's friend, shouted: "Tell them about the dream Martin". He ignored her at first. Then she shouted again. He put the text to the left of the lectern, grabbed the podium and, after a pause more pregnant than most, started to riff.
King's adviser Clarence Jones turned to the person next to him and said: "Those people don't know it, but they're about to go to church."
It's 50 years since Martin Luther King gave the speech that stands as one of the nation's favourite addresses delivered by one of its most beloved figures. But "I have a dream" wasn't in the text of the speech and its mainstream popularity only grew after King was assassinated.

Mike shedlock is positive on gold and the miners but sceptical of backwardation alarmismthe bottom ingold is not based on a Comex default as there will be no default. Secondly, what makes anyone think the Comex will wait to go to zero ounces in order to change delivery conditions? What counts is not absolute level, but rate of decline. Only someone without any real experience as a member of the exchanges would come up with the soft opinion you quote.

Major Gold Producers and Developers - Roger Bade at Whitman Howard
These Reports are somewhat dated, from November 2012 and February 2013 but now seem rather prescient in their focus on economics at lower gold prices.
Indeed Bade seems fairly bearish on gold and the miners
A good appendix at the end trending return on shareholders' funds.
The Major Gold Developers
Of course a turn and upward trend in gold prices may see leverage come back to marginal stocks

The Major Gold Producers and a review of the article
We are on record as arguing that this is a sector steeped in mediocrity. The sector has focussed on production and per ounce valuations for too long and will be forced to focus on shareholders’ returns as competition increases for the investor dollar.
A good appendix at the end trending return on shareholders' funds.
The Major Gold Developers
Of course a turn and upward trend in gold prices may see leverage come back to marginal stocks

Outlook for Exploration - Minex Consulting
HT to IKN
A very comprehensive survey of trends in mineral exploration and discovery from Minex Consulting who also make available a large number of additional reports and some interesting sources / links
Emphasises the enormous increases in expenditures but limited paybacks in discovery and, again in the mining industry, cost increases at the exploration stage.......MORE
As John Kaiser has pointed out much of the efforts of the recent gold cycle have gone into re-evaluating the economics of marginal gold deposits as prices pushed them into profitability, only to find costs have risen aggressively making some of those deposits marginal once more. Genuine discovery of low cost quality deposits in an industry struggling with depletion and costs could still provide great rewards. As the Minex report, Kaiser and Rule have suggested techniques and tools to make discoveries under deeper cover may be key.
The Minex report shows Lead and Zinc with shortfalls of discoveries vs mining rates, with Gold "Tight". Perhaps some of the silver miners with large zinc/lead by-products may see additional interest.
