Some interesting stuff from the inter tubes

Larry sent me a few interesting links last night.

The Value of Gold Explained
In Part I, Ronald Stoeferle covers all the fundamentals of gold in the world economy, and in particular why 'value' is accorded to gold under varying circumstances.

In Part II, Stoeferle goes on to address a number of contentious contemporary gold issues.

Thanks to Gene Arensberg's Got Gold Report (which in turn thanks GATA's Chris Powell) forcalling attention to these lengthy Lars Schall interviews with Ronald Stoeferle.  Part I originally appeared on Gold Switzerland on July 11, and Part II on 24 July, 2012.

Toby Connor shares some nice chart porn here and it looks pretty damn sexy if you own some Gold or are planning to buy some soon.

An old idea has resurfaced and has the potential to put South Africa back on top as the worlds top Gold producer. That statement of course assumes that they have adequate supply of electricity etc. and a hands off approach from the South African govt. The problem with South African mines is they are so deep and a lot of Gold is left behind in the support columns etc.
