After 45 years trapped below its inflation-adjusted ceiling, gold didn’t just break out — it SHATTERED through. Technical analysts call it a “confirmed breakout.” I call it the opportunity of a lifetime. Here’s what the mainstream media missed …

Since gold crushed this historic resistance, mining stocks have exploded from $234 billion to $533 billion in market cap. That’s $299 billion in new wealth — with $90 billion created in just the past 4 months. The acceleration is violent and it’s just beginning.

Why? It’s simple math. At $3,000 gold, miners generate record profits. At $3,500, they’re printing $2,100 per ounce in pure profit! Major miners are sitting on war chests, hunting acquisitions. The feeding frenzy has begun.

Proof? Royal Gold just agreed to shell out $3.5 billion for Sandstorm Gold in one of the biggest royalty mergers of the decade.

That takeover isn’t a one-off. It’s the direct result of what higher gold prices have already done to the entire mining complex. In just 31 months, the market value of the world’s listed gold producers has more than doubled.

The purple line in the chart shows how quickly that tide is rising — and why every smart CEO (and investor) is scrambling to grab ounces before the next leg higher.

I’ve identified two immediate opportunities positioned for what’s coming. My readers caught Artemis Gold’s 2,400% run from $1 to $25. These two could be even bigger in a takeoff gold bull market.

For 72 hours only, because we’re celebrating the 9th anniversary of Katusa Research. I’m breaking my rule against discounts — 50% off my premium research that shows you exactly how to play this historic breakout.

Gold’s 50-year pattern has broken. The smart money is moving. Your window is closing.
