Hardcover, 175 pages (excluding appendices), $29.95(US). With “gold fever” growing stronger, author Timothy Green takes a timely look at the ** international gold scene and assesses world production and gold prices to the end of the century. Separate chapters are included on gold-mining activity in Canada, the U.S., South Africa, Australia, the Pacific Basin, Latin America, the Soviet Union, China and Africa (Arabia to Zimbabwe). The electronic ** market place is surveyed, and the buyers of the precious metal, central ** banks, investors and gold fabricators, identified. Writing about world gold supply in the years ahead, which a growing investment demand is expected to
help keep in balance, the author makes a case for new initiatives in ** marketing and promotion to stimulate traditional demand for jewelry, industry
** and coin. **
