Jeb Handwerger of Gold Stock Trades profiles a company that he believes is in the right place at the right time.
I recently heard an interview with Van Eck Gold Fund Manager Joe Foster, one of the smartest
minds in the industry, who expects a major economic slowdown over the near term and a stock
market decline that will increase risk, volatility and cause a huge move in gold.
That is exactly what I’ve been preaching for several months expecting a breakout at $1,400 in gold.
Maybe this could come after the Fed meeting this month or next which will eventually be the
final straw that breaks the camel’s back and cause a stumble in stocks.
Just looking at the GDX we see a potential break of the downtrend in gold stocks over the past
six weeks. This could be exactly the sell the rumor of a rate hike and buy the news for gold.

Meanwhile, immediate attention must be paid to Allegiant Gold Ltd. (AUAU:TSX.V; AZLLF:OTCBB) before gold
breaks out for the following reasons:
1) Ground Floor Opportunity! Earlier this year Columbus Gold Corp. (CGT:TSX; CGTFF:OTCQX) spun out all of its U.S. assets
into Allegiant which just started trading in the U.S. under AUXXF less than a month ago.
Its an American-focused gold explorer.
2) Run by the #1 gold explorer in Nevada. Allegiant is run by Andy Wallace a protege of
the legendary John Livermore who discovered the Carlin Mine in Nevada transforming
gold mining in the U.S. and starting the development on the Carlin Trend, which hosts
more than 120 million ounces, and built Newmont, Barrick and others into the giants they
are today. In the last Nevada gold rush in the 1970s Andy Wallace found nine gold mines,
including the 5-million-ounce Marigold Mine, the 12 million-ounce Stonehouse/Lone
Tree Mine, and the Daisy Mine. Mr. Wallace was also involved in the discovery of the
Sterling Mine and of the Dee Mine. He knows what he is doing and in the next Nevada
gold rush he may have a few more discoveries up his sleeve as the team has been working
hard for over 40 years.
3) Drilling is happening right now on what is known as Allegiant’s Eastside property that I visited
recently located right outside Tonopah Nevada. The company recently released nine holes, which
all hit gold mineralization. One drill hole returned 42.7 metres of 2.49 g/t gold, including
9.1 metres of 9.03 g/t gold. A second drill rig has been added.
“These results confirm our geological model and validate our objectives to double the in-pit
ounces and significantly reduce the strip ratio at the Original Zone,” said Robert Giustra,
Chairman of ALLEGIANT. “The Original Zone has the hallmarks of a very large gold system
and is just one of many exploration targets that exist at Eastside.” Drilling is in progress and I
hope to hear good news with regard to hitting some new high grade zones. There are numerous
undrilled exploration targets. An updated resource is expected by the end of this year.
4) In addition to Eastside, Allegiant has 14 drill-ready gold projects in U.S. with 11 in
Nevada. It plans to drill 10. Five are already permitted and bonded.
5) There are less than 60 million shares outstanding fully diluted with around 60% in
institutional hands. Some of the reps on the board have experience with majors such as
Goldcorp, Newmont and Eldorado.
In conclusion, Allegiant’s portfolio of high-priority gold exploration projects are in the right
place, Nevada, with the top team led by Andy Wallace at the right time as we could be on the
verge of the next big gold rush which happens every 40 years. In the last gold rush Andy
Wallace found the top mines and I think in the next one, which could start any day now, Andy’s
Allegiant will be the #1 explorer in Nevada.
