Swiss June gold exports fall to the lowest in more than two years
Gold prices hit a record high of $2,483.60 per ounce on Wednesday.
Vancouver-based Astur Gold Corp. may proceed with their Salave gold project in Asturias, Spain after soil contamination was found to be minimal.
Spanish NGO Wild Animal Protection Fund – at the request of Astur Gold – used the pollen and nectar of two colonies of 40,000 honey bees to determine the levels of heavy metals in the soil.
The NGO’s director, Roberto Hartasánchez told Spanish newspaper El País that the “simple, quick, natural and efficient method” cost less than $500.

Excellent use of nature, similar to testing local plants for heavy metals. Keep up the good work.
