RIC researches the gold industry in America, Canada and Africa
Gold (Latin: aurum), number 79 on the periodic table, is perhaps the first metal that was high valued by human kind. Analyzing the development of prices you can see that this fact has not changed and perhaps will never change. On March 17, 2008 the price per ounce was around $1020. Only two month before, the price for one ounce was around $865, which means that the value of gold has increased by roughly 18% in two month, which makes the market for gold very interesting. Therefore RIC has published three reports that analyze the gold industry in America (except Canada), Canada and Africa.
This RIC America Gold Industry Report, 2008-2009, with more than 80 charts, demonstrates in detail current status and development trends of gold industry in major gold-producing nations of America (except Canada)
America is rich in gold resources. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), in 2007, the global gold reserve totaled at 47,000 tons and the reserve base amounted to 100,000 tons. The United States, the largest gold-producing nation in America, accounted for 6.38% of the global gold reserve, Canada, Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Peru, accounted for 4.26%, 4.26%, 4.26%, 2.98% and 2.98% respectively. Moreover, Canada, Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Peru, accounted for 5.5%, 4.2%, 3.4%, 3.4% and 2.3% of global gold reserve base respectively.
In 2006, America accounted for 33% of the global gold output (Latin America 12%, the United States 14%, Canada 7%); Africa accounted for 28% (South Africa, 22%); Asia-Pacific accounted for 29 % (Australia 13%, China 7%).
This RIC America Gold Industry Report, 2008-2009, provides a detailed analysis of 11 gold-producing companies operating in America, including the company’s profile, recent revenue & net income, gold reserve and output, mine distribution, and future plans.
This RIC Canadian Gold Industry Report, 2008-2009, with more than 150 charts, demonstrates in detail current status and development trends of Canadian gold industry.
Canada, due to its vast territory and rich mineral resources, occupies an important position in the mining industry throughout the world. From the perspective of gold reserves, Canada ranks sixth in the world with roughly 2000 tons in 2007. But distribution of gold reserves is uneven. For instance, Ontario shares 51% of total gold reserves of the nation; Quebec shares 21%, British Columbia shares 19% and Manitoba shares 4%;
Canada is one of the world's major gold producers. The global largest gold producers such as Barrick, Goldcorp, and Kinross are all headquartered in Canada. Except the New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, all other regions of the country are having the activity of gold exploitation, and the refining of gold is focus on the regions of Ontario and Quebec.
This RIC Canadian Gold Industry Report, 2008-2009, provides a profile of 24 Canadian gold producers focus on their background, revenue and profit, gold reserves and output, mine distributions, and future development plans.
The new RIC African Gold Industry Report, 2008-2009 expounds the status quo and Prospects of African gold industry based on over 120 charts.
Africa abounds in 14 major mineral resources; the reserves of those are of importance all over the world; wherein, Its gold reserve ranks at the first in the world, with a global share of 40%. Moreover, gold resource are widely distributed in Africa, mainly in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Ghana and Congo, etc; and also in the south of Mali, Tanzania, the Northeast of Guinea, Burkina Faso, Coté D'ivoire, Ethiopia, Botswana, the west of Namibia, Gabon, the west of Central African Republic, the southwest of Niger, the southwest of Kenya, Eritrea and Madagascar.
African countries are always the integrations of high-risk and high-return. We highlight Burkina Faso, Ghana, Mali and Tanzania as the most prospective and least risky countries. Historically, Ghana, Mali and Zimbabwe have being the most productive nations for gold.
The Central Africa (Including DRC, CAR and Tanzania) is the emerging region of gold exploitations. We believe that DRC has the most potential but also carries a high risk.
The RIC African Gold Industry Report, 2008-2009 also elaborates the 23 listed gold companies operating in 12 African countries, covering their profile, revenue & profit, gold reserve & output, distribution of gold mines and development strategies.
