South Africa police standoff with illegal gold miners escalates
The police sealed off access to the Buffelsfontein gold mine in Stilfontein several weeks ago to deny the miners access to food and other essentials.
Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, may be yet again running for President, but he has not abandoned his quest for an independent audit of U.S. gold reserves.
A hearing is scheduled this Thursday before Paul’s House Subcommittee on Domestic Monetary Policy and Technology on Paul’s bill demanding an audit of all gold in the United States.
