zonte metals

2020 Contest prizes. This should make it more interesting and help get some new participation. Anyone can enter by joining up here in the $$Lounge

I think these newer coins are beautiful and will be easier to source. They also relate to NFLD where ZON is drilling and could make a discovery

Same rules, winner closest to stocks highest trade/print of the year.

2018 CANADA $20 WWI ALLIED FORCES - NEWFOUNDLAND FINE SILVER
Before we were one nation, we were brothers-in-arms. The second coin in Royal Canadian Mint's First World War Allies series highlights Newfoundland’s wartime contributions as an independent dominion during the First World War. Paired with an image that defines heroism, the gold-plated insignia of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment speaks of valour and sacrifice in places like Monchy-Le-Preux and Beaumont-Hamel.

Composition 99.99% fine silver





If the winning stock price is over $1.00 then the first place prize will be this gold coin and the silver coin reverting to 2nd place finisher. ( if over $1, I can afford the gold coin lol )

983 Canada 22KT $100 Gilbert's Landing in Newfoundland Gold Coin

The $100 gold coin for 1983 commemorates Gilbert's landing in Newfoundland to proclaim it as Britain's first overseas colony. The word "CANADA" appears on the edge for the first time in Canadian coinage.
Face Value: $100, Composition: 91.70% gold, 8.30% Silver, Weight (g): 16.965

I will stick with my last years price 85 cents.

Good question, could be before or after?

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL ZONTE SHAREHOLDERS

RonS,when do you think the 1st drill assays are going to be released,before or after january 15 ?

To make it more interesting, I am adding a prize. Newfoundland had their own coins 100 years ago or so.

If the winning stock price is over $1.00, I will add in the coin. I am going to have to look around and source one, but I am looking at the $2 gold coin. I think it was .917 pure gold.

If Zonte is over $1,00, I figure I can afford the prize LOL

I will give more details when I can

good idea to add the coin RonS,for sure the stock will be over $1 in 2020,concerning the entries,we want to give the chance to everyone,or maybe we should have january 15 as a deadline.

IT'S OFFICIAL-CIMA IS THE WINNER OF THE 2019 CONTEST,HIS PREDICTION WAS $0.69

CIMA is the winner for the second year in a row,(he won in 2018 when the high was $0.41),the high of 2019 at $0.39 is two cents lower than the one in 2018,a huge disappointment for many of us,everyone would agree,but like Goldman and Hoss stated in there wise posts,

Goldman: This story may unfold as a Tier 1 Copper / IOCG Deposit that major mining companies will fight over !!!
CROSS HILLS , NEWFOUNDLAND COULD BE A DISCOVERY PLAY !!!
Be patient , this could be a very major discovery !!!
GO ZONTE GO !!

Hoss: I have been in countless exploration juniors over the years. I even stayed up in the wee hours drinking with the drillers to try and gain any insight. And I can tell you that nothing is for sure in drilling no matter what anyone says or how good this or that looks.The Dunns anomalies extend for about 1 kilometer and about 1/2 kilometer wide. If you convert that to city blocks, it is around 75 city blocks and they poked 5 skinny two inch drill holes among those 75 blocks.I think the stock has not responded to the upside because this is something new, there are not any IOCG systems in NFLD, and I don't think an economic one anywhere in Canada. There are some good iron deposits but they do not have any copper or gold. The market does not believe Zonte can find one, it is taking a show me stance!!!

the high of the year in 2020 will be much higher considering all the news releases to come and announcing a major discovery IOCG in newfoundland,january 2020 will be the beginning of a move up in the share price,the rules are the same and the contest starts january 1st 2020 until january 1st 2021,you can give and change your new prediction until january 31 2020 midnight,

Pasta suggested this: "Keep everyone’s predictions secret and display everyone’s prediction feb 1st."

you have two options,sharing publicly your prediction right away or keeping it secret until february 1st 2020,if you choose the second option,send me an email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

will RonS have the same $6.50 target and analysis for 2020,will he jack up the winning prize to attract more new people in the contest,i'm sure RonS will agree with that...lol..?

the great predictions for the high of ZON in 2020

cross hills will deliver many spectacular drill holes in 2020,for the new comers,the timing is perfect,some of us have been waiting since 2010,everyone all aboard,the train is leaving the station.

the prize from RonS
That is the excitement of junior exploration,one drill hole can completely change a company.I will also offer the same reward for this year contest,one year added to your newsletter subscription or $150 dinner voucher for life timers.Rules are simple,whoever is closest to the highest trade printed on the ticker in 2020.

the reason why RonS has a $6.50 target in 2019
My optimistic guess is $6.50 for the high, probably no better than any ones prediction but here is my reasoning.
It is hard to imagine a better mining market and higher gold prices after what we have just been through in 2018, but often the market improves after such a downturn and I believe we will see gold prices in the $1300 to $1500 range in 2019 when it becomes more evident the Fed will have to ease again or at least halt the tightening cycle.

I have been to Cross Hills and looked a lot into these IOCG systems and I am convinced there will be a discovery. Pasta mentioned just some magnetic surveys and normally that is not such a big deal but in IOCG it is. Iron Oxide is iron, it is magnetic so responds well to these surveys, not so in other systems.

The iron oxide veins on surface are magnetic, I used a magnet myself, a very simple principle. On surface they carry copper, that is what makes these deposits valuable compared to just an iron ore deposit. The magnet surveys show strong magnetic intensity deeper below the surface, it is a no-brainer that the iron oxide is concentrated down deeper and like the surface showing has copper.

And veining above is very typical of these systems. There is very little experience and knowledge about these in Canada and is probably the main reason Zonte is overlooked thus far.There is no doubt in my mind that this will be a discovery with iron, copper and some PMs, the question is the grade?

After some drill holes and we have an average grade of say 0.25% copper, it still might be economic, but will not get much love. If the grade is .3 to .35% that we see in many other copper deposits, this is going to get some serious attention.

IOCGs are known for better grades in general and if this turns out to be 0.5% to 1% copper it is going to be a whopper. And OMG if it is above 1%. Don't forget unlike porphyry systems where the other 99% of the rock is waste, in an IOCG, the 20% to 40% that is typical iron oxide also has value, it is not waste rock. There should be silver and gold credits as well.

It seems $5 is kind of a top speculative target with many juniors like we saw with Garibaldi. That said, with higher gold prices, I believe the pressure will intensify on Anglo to settle with Zonte in 2019 so they can move Gramalote to production.
Given not so great a market, it is still a $50 to $100 million settlement which is another $1 to $2 per share, hence when added to $5 my $6.50 guess!!!!!!!!!

Printing $0.35 today.

Go Zonte Go

In real live no,but you're right,for the contest,we should let it run untill january 1 2020,

the share price came back to life friday printing $0.34,will ZON cross over $0.39 in the last two days of trading,we shall see,but one thing is for sure,the high of 2020 will be much higher than $0.39 or $0.41,and i think everyone would agree on that.

ron, don't be too hasty, 2 trading days left in 2019 yet
