Gold,Price,Rally

Gold price continues to set new all-time highs, with gold equities starting to get in on the action as M&A activity increases, says David Erfle, editor of Junior Miner Junky. On March 27, Alamos Gold (TSX:AGI) said it would acquire Argonaut Gold (TSX:AR), including Argonaut's Magino mine in Ontario. The addition of Magino is expected to increase Alamos' production by 25% and reduce its all-in sustaining costs by $100 per ounce. This acquisition is part of a trend of consolidation in the gold mining industry as companies seek to increase their reserves and reduce costs. The gold price rally and the potential for further increases have made gold mining companies attractive targets for mergers and acquisitions. As a result, we can expect to see more deals like this in the future.
