The Metals:
Gold rose $7.65 to a new record high of $1609.80 in Asia before it fell back off in London to as low as $1597.75 by about 9:35AM EST, but it then bounced back higher in New York and ended with a loss of just 0.1%. Silver surged to as high as $40.843 in Asia before it fell back to $39.911 by a little before 8AM, but it also bounced back higher in New York and ended with a gain of 0.02%.
Both metals are falling in afterhours trade, however, in reaction to news that the “gang of 6” has “reached agreement on a major plan to cut the deficit by more than $4 trillion over the coming decade in what could be a bold entry into a debate on the deficit long bogged-down by bitter partisanship.”
“A bipartisan group of U.S. senators on Tuesday revived an ambitious budget plan that could provide new ideas for breaking the impasse in Congress over raising the nation's credit limit by August 2.
President Barack Obama threw his support behind the proposal by the "Gang of Six" senators, saying it was broadly consistent with his approach on reducing debt and deficits.”
This plan looks as if it would pass the Senate, but doubts still exist about the response from the House. Reactions are sure to be released soon.
Euro gold fell to about €1130, platinum gained $2.50 to $1769.50, and copper gained over 6 cents to about $4.46.
Gold and silver equities fell as much as 2% by early afternoon and remained near that level for the rest of the day.

MAG Silver Provides Update on Juanicipio Joint Venture - "At a recent board of directors meeting of Minera Juanicipio, the board unanimously approved a resolution whereby Minera Juanicipio will hire a qualified and internationally recognized independent consultant to carry out an independent resource estimate based on drilling done on the property up to June 2011. This resource estimate will comply with the provisions of National Instrument 43-101- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and, once finalized, will then be used by AMC as a basis for the AMC Study. The updated resource estimate will utilize data from the ongoing 2011 drill program designed to convert as much as possible of the resource from the inferred category to an indicated category and therefore is expected to allow AMC to prepare a study with a higher confidence level mine production and mine design plan. The final AMC Study will also include certain tradeoff studies approved by the Minera Juanicipio board of directors." More
