Gold drops, other minerals rise

According to PNGindustrynews.net, gold took a hit while nickel, copper and iron ore are all on the rise.

It is reported that gold is usually the safe harbour in times of turmoil, however it is not known what the cause for the end-of-week dip is.

PNGindustrynews.net says it is inexplicable that gold took a hit in the light of widespread commentary that the election of Donald Trump as the next US president was one of the riskiest decisions made by Americans this century.
