Editorial Desk & Standards
Who does the work, how we source it, and the rules we hold ourselves to.
US Corp Gold Report is produced by a small editorial team organized around five coverage desks. We publish under desk bylines rather than personal brands because the standards matter more than the personalities. Every piece is edited before it runs, and every claim of fact is expected to trace back to a public source.
The desks
Markets Desk owns the gold price story: spot direction, real yields, the dollar, and the flows through funds and the futures market. It sets the macro backdrop the rest of our coverage sits inside.
Equities Desk reads mining companies. It covers producers and developers on the major exchanges and the smaller explorers that trade over the counter, with an eye on dilution, cash runway, and whether the drill results justify the story.
Mining Desk handles projects and districts: the geology, the claims, the drill programs, and the permitting path. It works from filings, technical reports, and government records rather than company slide decks.
Corporate Gold Desk follows the metal on balance sheets: central-bank reserves, official-sector buying, and the joint ventures and subsidiaries that decide who really owns a deposit.
Bullion Desk covers the physical market: bars and coins, premiums over spot, refiners, and the mechanics of buying and storing metal.
Sourcing
We prefer primary documents to secondary summaries. That means company filings on SEC EDGAR, technical and resource reports, U.S. Geological Survey mineral data, Bureau of Land Management claim and permit records, and demand and reserve data from the World Gold Council and national statistics offices. When a number is an estimate, we say so. When a project is early-stage and unproven, we say that too.
The rules
Three lines we do not cross. We do not accept payment to cover a company, positively or at all. We do not publish investment advice, and we treat every article as information rather than a recommendation. We do not let sources or companies approve our stories before publication. If we get something wrong, we correct it and note the change.
