(PCC)Buckle your seatbelts because here is a secret that’s about to break, and it will knock your socks off! Washington insiders are whispering about how Trump is getting ready to play a golden gambit of a secret mineral deal that not only will shake up the world but also will have a direct impact on Canada.
In classic Trump fashion, equal parts bold, brazen, and business-minded, President Trump may be positioning himself for what insiders are calling the “deal of the century”: a secretive push to stockpile physical mineral wealth, not paper reserves, transforming America’s economic footing, boosting Canada’s resource economy, and potentially altering global geopolitics. What lies at the core of this plan? Copper, gold, and a tiny island dripping in both.
Behind closed doors, some are speculating the U.S. is poised to pivot to hard assets, saying goodbye to greenbacks and hello to gold and precious metals!
Trump has long expressed disdain for fiat currency and love for gold. His buildings glisten with it, and his political base reveres it as the ultimate hedge against inflation and elite manipulation. Now, with the Fed balancing on a tightrope of debt, interest rates, and geopolitical uncertainty, rumors are swirling about a U.S. strategy to shift reserves away from paper and toward physical commodities, primarily gold and copper, making the Federal Reserve impotent.
The source? Canada, and potentially a tropical wildcard, is first in line.
In 2024 alone, the U.S. imported over $6.3 billion worth of gold and nearly $4 billion in copper from Canada, making it one of America’s most vital mineral partners. But that dependence is now drawing strategic interest from Trump and his allies, who view Canadian assets not just as trade but as leverage.
Canada’s immense mineral wealth of gold in Ontario and copper in British Columbia and Quebec is critical to any American reserve strategy shift, and when coupled with other gold-producing nations, Canada is solid!
A move by Trump and Trump-aligned policymakers to “lock in” Canadian gold and precious metal supplies through long-term deals, preferential trade pacts, or even acquisition of controlling stakes in key mining operations may be the biggest boom Canada has ever seen triggering a 21st century gold rush.
And yet, that may only be just the beginning. Enter Bougainville: A Tropical Island with a $60 Billion Jackpot. Thousands of miles from North America, an unlikely player may be Trump’s ace in the hole: Bougainville.
Bougainville Mines Ready For The US!
This little-known archipelago, currently an autonomous region of Papua New Guinea (PNG), voted overwhelmingly for independence in 2019. The vote wasn’t binding, but it was loud. Now, Bougainville’s president, former rebel leader Ishmael Toroama, is flirting with a deal no one saw coming.
“If the U.S. comes and says, ‘Yes, we support Bougainville independence,’ then I can say, ‘Well, the Panguna mine is here. It’s up to you,’” Toroama recently said.
The Panguna mine, shuttered since a bloody civil war in the 1990s, is the crown jewel: once one of the world’s richest sources of copper and gold, it still holds an estimated 5.84 million tons of copper and 20 million ounces of gold. That’s over $60 billion in buried treasure, sitting idle in a geopolitically hot region just north of Australia.
The strategic play of minerals and military positioning come in one very nice package waiting on the doorstep of the White House. For Trump, who once floated the purchase of Greenland (and was laughed off by Danish officials), Bougainville may represent a similar “crazy-until-it-works” opportunity. The difference is Greenland wants to remain independent with some ties to Denmark, but Bougainville is all in for a US takeover.
From a geopolitical standpoint, an independent Bougainville aligned with or annexed by the U.S. would represent a stunning win in the Indo-Pacific rivalry with China. While neighboring Solomon Islands have tilted toward Beijing, a pro-U.S. Bougainville with a reopened Panguna mine could serve as both a strategic outpost and a mineral bank.
“It’s Greenland 2.0, but with gold instead of glaciers,” said one Washington insider close to Trump’s circle.
But what does this mean to Canada? Everything!
If the U.S. is indeed preparing to re-anchor its economic power in physical commodities, Canadian resources may soon be under pressure not just from market demand, but from geopolitical maneuvering.
- Increased U.S. demand could drive Canadian gold and copper prices up to jackpot levels.
- If US gold demand grew, then Canada and Bougainville would cozy up to the US, and trade barriers would disappear.
- US gold reserves powered by mining would have a price and value ripple effect throughout the world, and a possible bidding war for these precious metals would make overnight billionaires in all three countries and make all the citizens of Bougainville instant millionaires.
The future of Bougainville remains uncertain. The island’s people remain steadfast in their push for freedom. And Trump? He may see the island not just as a curiosity but as a masterstroke.
“People laughed when he wanted Greenland,” said an analyst at the Heritage Foundation. “But Bougainville? “It’s not for sale. It might be ready to join.”
Whether or not Bougainville becomes America’s next territory, its mineral wealth and Trump’s apparent interest signal a larger trend: a return to tangible assets, a scramble for strategic resources, and the end of the dollar-as-king era.
The cat is out of the bag! Trump’s secret mineral play may not be secret for long. If Bougainville becomes the next chess piece in the U.S.-China rivalry, and Canada finds its resources increasingly a key component of the proposed American strategy,
Final Word: What if gold and copper became the new crude oil? Then the true global power won’t lie in central banks but beneath our feet.
