By the ounce

At the time of writing on Tuesday, the price of gold sat at a record high of US$3,436, up from US$3,245 per ounce in our April 16 report, according to data from The Globe and Mail, as investors seek refuge from Trump’s global tariff measures and his relentless pressure on the U.S. Federal reserve to cut interest rates.

This week in gold

Dynacor Group (TSX:DNG) reported unaudited gold sales of US$28.8 million in March and record quarterly sales of US$80 million in Q1 2025 from its Veta Dorada plant in Peru.

The Trump administration selected the Stibnite gold-antimony project, owned by Perpetua Resources (TSX:PPTA), as a Transparency Project under its move to strengthen domestic critical mineral production. Four other publicly traded miners also made the list.

LaFleur Minerals (CSE:LFLR) is on track to restart gold production from the recently acquired Beacon Mill in Val-d’Or, Quebec, as the price per ounce tests record levels. The company’s nearby Swanson deposit houses a resource of 187,900 ounces.
