I agree that 2012 will be the year for the juniors to get traction ,, however I disagree with the premise that currency/money must or should be tied to gold and/or silver ,, I see PM’s as a great store of wealth but for currency to be held as valid we need governments to treat it with respect , create it directly (not through debt as with the fed) and not print it beyond what is rational for liquidity and in line with GDP growth.
