The big question is whether the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates or not. Experts are divided on this issue. Some assume there will be no rate hike, as inflationary pressures are largely temporary and the U.S. dollar will continue to weaken. Others, however, see rising oil prices as a risk of inflation, which the Fed will counter with a rate hike. Central bank gold purchases are likely to have a particular influence on the future development of the gold price.
Investors are likely to return to the gold market in greater numbers once there is clarity regarding U.S. monetary policy. Even though there is still a long way to go before new record prices are reached, industry experts have little doubt that this will happen in the long term. Changes in risk sentiment and the high-risk environment have so far determined the precious metal’s performance this year. Added to this have been market volatility and geopolitical tensions.
A look at the global economy shows that downside risks remain. Key factors driving interest rate hikes are generally the latest economic and financial data, as well as inflation trends. It is clear that rising interest rates make interest-bearing investments more attractive. On the other hand, there are many factors supporting the price of gold: supply chain risks, trade conflicts, persistent inflationary pressure, risks of stagflation in major economies, and tensions surrounding Taiwan and the South China region. And if the price of gold starts to rise again, investors will return to the gold market.
Mayfair Gold - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/mayfair-gold-corp/ - has 100 percent control of the Fenn-Gib Gold Project in northern Ontario, located in the prolific Timmins District. A very positive preliminary feasibility study has already been completed. According to the company, the gold project contains 4.3 million ounces of gold (an indicated resource of 181.3 million metric tons of rock with a grade of 0.74 grams of gold per metric ton of rock). First production is targeted for 2030, according to the company’s current development timeline. Mayfair Gold is initially focused on developing approximately 1.04 million ounces of probable mineral reserves grading 1.29 g/t gold within a starter mine plan. The base case ($3,100 gold) payback is 2.7 years while spot case is 1.7 years. The grade control drilling program, consisting of 56 diamond drill holes, confirmed within the tested area of the planned Phase 1 starter pit that the higher-grade material anticipated in the PFS/reserve model is present. The initial development plan accelerates the timeline to production and a rerating on the stock. Once in production free cash flow can then used for growth opportunities including expanding production. Over the next 6-12 months Mayfair expects to reach several key milestones on permitting, indigenous agreements, project financing, exploration and engineering.
Newcore Gold - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/newcore-gold-ltd/ - is actively advancing its Enchi Gold Project in southwestern Ghana, a 248 square kilometre land package located along a well-established gold belt that hosts numerous operating gold mines. A robust Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for the project was announced in June 2026, continuing to de-risk and advance the development of the project. The PFS highlighted the development opportunity for an open pit mine with standard mill processing. At a gold price of US$3,800/oz, the PFS highlighted an after-tax net present value at a discount rate of five percent (NPV5%) of US$496 million, with an after-tax internal rate of return (IRR) of 37%. The PFS highlighted payable gold production of approximately 953,350 ounces over a 9.3 year mine life. With all existing deposits at Enchi remaining open for future resource growth, there is strong potential for future growth to be defined through exploration and drilling. The latest results from the 80,000-meter drilling program confirm the continuity of the gold mineralization as well as the potential for resource expansion. These latest drill results, reported in 2026, could further support the potential for future resource growth and are not yet included in the mineral resource estimate and Pre-Feasibility Study.
