Incredibly good interview, banks are going belly up FAST

Pivot or break something, we won't have to wait long

>>54041850
California "bank". East coast eternal meddlers chuckle softly.

>>54041850
look at 22min
>the only way we're going ahead of this is if the treasury secretary stands up there with Jay Powell and the other regulator and says "we're on it, we're dropping rates and if you're a bank and need liquidity, come talk to us". If that's not the message on Monday, we have a problem, do you understand ?
Holy molly I'm excited brothers !

Picked up my forbidden cake. Tell me you have physical gold and silver anons.

If all these shitty VC assets get marked down surely funds will have to slosh money into value to meet their fiduciary duties, no?

It's dumping snow here. Ranchers are dropping bales of hay by helicopter. Cows can't eat snow like pigs do. They need water. I can't even borrow a snow mobile to recover frozen livestock.
Anyways I hope you fellas are having a lovely weekend

Last post for a bit from me, I have snow shoveling to do.
Kingfisher's adding a major copper gold property to their list up in the Golden Triangle, east of Schaft Creek.

SVB had a Moody’s credit rating of A just 3 days ago.

>>54041850
Why the hell is he talking about "banks being attacked by the shorts"? What did that have to do with the SVB collapse? They didn't fail because their share price went down.

That's cool of what sort of equipment do you need to produce one of those cylinders? I want one on my desk

>>54041608
>can't unseen now
Fuck you anon

>>54045777
its a core sample from mineral drilling, you can make one yourself with a core bit for stone, a large rock and water to cool the bit.

>>54046168
Cool, is there any machinery that won't cost tens of thousands or something to use the bits? Any idea what I should search for?

>>54046235
you can rent the gear for a hundred bucks at any heavy machine / tool store. Core bits are used in concrete work for example. I do short 1.5ft long surface cores with a 1.5inch wide core / hole saw but meant for concrete borring in the field. You do need to keep the bit nice and wet though or it will overheat and fail.

>>54046466
Nice, thanks anon! I think I may have a new hobby.

Lutetium? Just how many rare earth metals are there? Cease and desist, Chinamen!

>>54041966
The fed is raising rates to strengthen the dollar to fight against China and Russia leaving the dollar and starting a newer financial system where the dollar is not the world's reserve currency. Its an ongoing process as the US fails due to its bad decisions the last 30 years. The fed/gov will have to step in and fund the banks and cover losses and keep raising rates to keep strengthenging the dollar. If the fed lowers rates and and inflation continues the dollar will continue to weaken in the US and around the world strengthening the Russia-China alternative. Its a game of empire.

The one face is polished and had a little plaque on it at one point

>>54048679
just imagine what that vein would have looked like back in the day!

>>54045777
I find them around old mining camps sometimes. The miners used to practice drilling on all the boulders around town.

>>54046562

Imagine the shipping costs if you sold these on Etsy

>>54051478
looks like $5-$10 shipping on ebay

>>54051478
holy shit thats the way to sell core samples, Etsy would be perfect! To bad their involved in that fucked up tech bank.

quick evening bump.

>>54052952
>green energy transition
I recall that nuclear projects in the past were disrupted by "pro green" activists, which were basically a shill op funded by big oil.
What does this mean for mining/comms?

I recently had a thought that "going green" was code for "decoupling from middle east and russian energy"

>>54053083
in this case the mines cant find enough trained staff to increase output. They need people in hauling, mill wrights, chemists, managers etc. This is happening all over the sector too, not just in copper. As for disruption by activists, that already was happening for years, protestors slowing down specific projects so investors could buy in cheaper has been rumored to be a thing since the early 2010s for example.

>>54052952
Non-oxidizing copper has been created, removing the necessity for gold plated transistors.
Copper demand will outpace the mining in a few years.
You guys are okay so you get this one for free.

>>54053186
What do copper wires get alloyed with? I was going to say
>isn't gold used for contacts for electronics?
but in the context of your post, I just realized it was probably because gold is somewhat conductive, but doesn't corrode or oxidize. Interesting. Got a link or anything?

>>54053234

>>54053426
Ah cool, that's what I got from boku no Google. It looks like they use PVP with it? I guess copper itself is the valuable part of the material.
I see that beryllium copper already exists, but that's probably very different.
Copper? Copper.

>>54053452
I haven't read the paper yet desu. I'll give it a peek tomorrow. My eyes are killing me

>>54053524
Looks like it also references Gadolinium a lot. Seems to be an alloy with copper.

>The abundance in the Earth's crust is about 6.2 mg/kg.[5] The main mining areas are in China, the US, Brazil, Sri Lanka, India, and Australia with reserves expected to exceed one million tonnes. World production of pure gadolinium is about 400 tonnes per year

>>54053628
Gadolinium comes from tin processing for the most part if memory serves, I have no idea why I remember that though. It also shows up in Copper / Nickel ores too, but not in crazy quantities.

daylight savings bump

Don't you die on me

>>54046235
Get a steel pipe and melt down stuff and pour it into it. Then cut the pipe away with an angle grinder. Pretend it's a core sample.

hey guys. i bought bay horse silver at 20 cents

So out of the lundin leaks my favorite two miners from the list is i-80 gold and avino. Maple seemed interesting and of course scottie.

>>54055389
tfw garnet is apparently January birthstone so I got one the other week

Are catalytic converters /cmmg/ or /pmg/? Either way I cut these out of everything I own before thieves get them.

>>54064557
Isn't she the one that is legit braindead retarded in interviews

Based coomer bait bringing in the 1pbtid retards to keep the bread humped over the wkend.
My eyes are feeling better today so I'll be able to work next week if the rain holds off. Only three more roofs to put on this spring

Nice. I dry mine and put them away as pepper sauce, give them to friends and neighbors as they keep for ages

>>54041415
god i want that up my butt

>>54066484
ah, an engineer

>>54066427
>>54066452
Seems like the type of person I would follow advice from.

>>54066288
what are you doing with those cardboard things? just for support or for growing more roots vertically?
Also, is grow lights "better" than normal LEDs for sprouting seeds?

>>54066288
Holy shit cheese grows in those?
>>54066891
Even broken time is right twice a day

>>54067942
Basically yeah using them as a support so they don't get too leggy and fall over. The taller ones are likely males but I'll have to flip them over to 12&12 to find out for sure.
I don't grow indoors so I don't know for sure. They put off less heat which is important to keep the babies from burning or the soil drying out. It's always a learning process

spring cant come soon enough.

>>54069917
I pulled out my dry suit. Gonna do some crawling now that the creeks here have flooded twice this winter I know a few spots that are catch areas nearby. Fingers crossed

>>54070515
stay safe anon! Creeks here are basically dry right now until the freshet starts next week.

shit banks cannot fail, money printer starts again, TOTAL DOLLAR DEATH, oooooooooooohhhhh commodities

Gold closing in on 1900 again. Could this be the start of the golden bull run?

Did the fed blink?

Oil speculators play the role of bond vigilante? Blow it up?

things are only getting started, monday is going to be a complete mad house.

>>54072838
There could be fallout as foreign markets open in the east. I'm popping corn

>>54074238
i am expecting more banks to go under before we see wider action from the US Gov. Their already in hot water as is, if more banks go south it gets interesting fast.

>>54075383
Schwab next?

>>54075383
As a professional schizo I suspect it's more of the same just the can is farther down the road. Subprime is banking terminology for "wouldn't be loaned an apple from their own mother" but if you repackage those subprime loans together you can sell it as a higher rated (less risky lol) asset and label them as mortgage backed securities. Tons of these are floating around since 08-09 bailouts

You win.

Looks like China is still trying to corner the lithium market. Last post for the night for me.

>>54077077
This is ridiculous lol. The 2nd largest bank failure in history and the market is pumping. This market is absolutely absurd. A grotesque deformed monstrosity.

We must be ensuring the end now. I'm sitting in mostly cash waiting to buy back in on the crash. Going over miners again looking for the most solid investments. My old solids are still shining through. Abra silver. Gogold. New find i-80 gold. Basically the same risk reward as gogold. Same situation. A producer with massive growth and expansion potential.

Currently sitting on the sidelines for santacruz. Waiting to see how bad their next financial report is. If it's not awful I'll buy back in. Summa silver I'm in because it's Sprott backed and an exploration play. Blue lagoon I'm in but I really hope they get a good drill in. Scottie resources I'd like to buy.


Today I actually thought I'd say fuck it and just take all that cash and buy physical silver.

Other than that I'm in encore, global atomic, trillion energy and salt.

Once the dust settles, I was going to do a short pairs trade on the gold/silver ratio. Specifically, was considering short at 1980 and long at 18.25 or so. Might grab some options to hedge the downside
