China and India are driving up prices with their insatible appetite for rare earth elements including gold and silver. The world has a silver shortage and of course gold is still considered very valuable resource. Both Chna and India used to be 3rd world countries , however, have moved quickly into the economic bonanza.

Also, Utah voted to make gold a currency...this will benefit SFMI too.

Supply and Demand.....high demand with limited supplies drives up prices.

How do you see it Carmine?
