$3000 Gold: Five of the Top Gold Stocks to Buy Today

With U.S. elections nearing, geopolitical tension, and interest rate cuts from the Federal Reserve, gold prices are now at record highs above $2,540. All of which is great news for gold companies including Renegade Gold Inc. (TSXV: RAGE) (OTCQX: TGLDF), Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE: GOLD) (TSX: ABX), Royal Gold Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD), Franco Nevada Corp. (NYSE: FNV) (TSX: FNV), and Newmont Corp. (NYSE: NEM) (TSX: NGT).

Moving forward, gold could hit $3,000 by 2025, according to Bank of America. In fact, according to the analysts, "We believe gold can hit $3,000/oz over the next 12-18 months, although flows do not justify that price level right now," as quoted by Investing.com. Even Goldman Sachs says gold could rally to $2,700 by early next year. "Imminent Fed rate cuts are poised to bring Western capital back into the gold market, a component largely absent of the sharp gold rally observed in the last two years," added Goldman Sachs, as quoted by LiveMint.com.

Look at Renegade Gold Inc. (TSXV: RAGE) (OTCQX: TGLDF), For Example

Renegade Gold Inc. just reported initial results from the second phase of drilling at its advanced Newman Todd Deposit. Drilling to date has successfully increased mineralization at depth by an additional 500 m, confirming the deposit extends down from surface to just over 800 m. Of particular importance, the results have also increased the overall width of the structure by up to 100 m near surface and confirmed new high-grade corridors within the hanging wall of the Newman Todd Structure.

Highlights

- Width of Newman Todd mineralization increased by up to 100 m near surface. Holes NT-24-017 and NT-24-018 specifically targeted an underexplored area in the footwall of the Newman Todd. The strong mineralization intersected by both holes from the east side of the Newman Todd Structure confirms a significant increase in the near-surface mineralization.

- Hole NT-23-017 intersected 9.2 g/t Au over 2.7 m, 4.5 g/t Au over 2.5 m and 2.4 g/t Au over 18.0 m. These results add approximately 75 m width to the Newman Todd Structure in the shadow of previous drilling.

- Hole NT-23-018 intersected 9.8 g/t Au over 1.5 m and 2.8 g/t Au over 8.5 m, including 8.1 g/t Au over 1.0 m and 3.4 g/t Au over 4.4 m. These results add approximately 100 m width to the Newman Todd Structure below previous drilling.

- Results confirm significant down dip potential of the Newman Todd Structure. Hole NT-23-016 intersected 4.9 g/t Au over 2.5 m at approximately 650 m below surface. Previous drilling was limited to a single hole at 835 m depth.

- Hole NT-24-016 encountered strong mineralization in the 400 m gap between historical drilling and hole NT-129, further increasing continuity of the current geological model.

- Through ongoing analysis of the 2024 results, Renegade has identified significant geological parallels to other gold zones within the regional deformation fold corridor, which includes West Red Lake Gold’s Rowan Deposit and Mount Jamie Zone. These insights will guide ongoing exploration at the Newman Todd Deposit and other prospective areas.

Nav Dhaliwal, President and CEO for Renegade, commented, “Renegade Gold’s 2024 drilling at the high-grade Newman Todd deposit has been a huge success and it speaks to the quality of our technical team, as well as the incredible potential of the project. In just one program, we have extended mineralization by an additional 500 m in depth and 100 m in width and have identified a number of new mineralized areas. The rapid growth we’re seeing at Newman Todd suggests we’ve only just begun to unlock the value of this project, and the team is now hard at work planning our next steps.”
