😉 Bullion Takes Breather

Gold prices eased today as stronger-than-expected US economic data and easing geopolitical tensions in Iran reduced safe-haven demand, with spot gold slipping to around $4,600/oz despite remaining up roughly 2% for the week after hitting a record high.

A firmer US dollar, supported by lower-than-expected jobless claims, weighed on bullion, while high prices dampened retail demand in India and kept buying subdued.

Elsewhere, silver and platinum were also lower on the day but remained on track for solid weekly gains after recent record highs, highlighting that while momentum has cooled, precious metals continue to be supported at elevated levels.

👏 Castilla Bonanza

Super Copper Corp. (CUPR.CSE), reported a bonanza-grade gold and copper surface discovery at the Castilla Copper-Gold Project in the Atacama Region, Chile.

Highlights:

• 53.8 g/t gold from surface rock grab sampling.

• 17.7% copper, confirming high-grade sulphide potential.

• Over 50% iron in multiple samples, consistent with IOCG-style systems.

Approximately 25% of all samples returned grades above 1.0 g/t gold, indicating property-scale mineralisation rather than isolated anomalies.

The combination of gold, copper and iron, alongside widespread alteration and pathfinder elements, supports the presence of a robust mineralising system and positions Castilla as a potential flagship asset in a premier copper-gold jurisdiction.
