Market Wrapup
Thursday, 28th September 2017
U.S. natural gas is selling at historically low prices, with forecasts for the near term suggesting no significant change as production
continues to grow. In its latest Short-Term Energy Outlook, the EIA forecast that natural gas output this year will average 73.7 billion cubic
feet daily, up by 1.4 billion cubic feet per day from last year. The Henry Hub spot benchmark price should average $3.05 per MMBtu this
year and, driven by an increase in domestic consumption, rise to $3.29 per MMBtu in 2018.
Thats not a very significant increase from a producers perspective, but if they continue to lower production costs, it might become
significant enough to spur more exports, which would, in turn, have further positive impact on prices. But how likely is this?
In the Sept. 19 press release, Victoria Gold announced the first assays received from the "2017 Bluto target surface trench exploration
program. TR17-16 was the first major trench constructed at the Bluto target this season and was concentrated on a trail built with heavy
equipment to access a water source that would be utilized in the planned 2017 Bluto diamond drilling exploration program."
"The fact that a high-grade gold vein was discovered early in this campaign demonstrates that our Potato Hills Trend mineralization model
is working and we look forward to the first ever drill results from this highly prospective area," noted John McConnell, president and CEO
of Victoria Gold.
