As a global investor you might be looking for an affordable penny stock in the mining industry. Our pick in this industry for the month of February is Minco Gold Corporation (MGH). The Canadian mining company is involved in the direct acquisition and development of high grade, advanced stage gold properties.

The recommendation is based on the belief of the increasing investor demand and price for gold moving forward. Minco Gold wholly owns a number of subsidiaries which include Triple Eight Mineral Corporation (Temco), Huaihua Tiancheng Mining Ltd., Yuanling Minco Mining Ltd., and the aforementioned Minco Mining Corporation.

The company also purchased 13 million shares which gives it a 22.15% interest in Minco Silver at the end of 2011.

In January of 2014 Minco announced new drilling in Newfoundland Canada. This is a result of the July 2013 purchase of the Buchans Mineral Corporation. The company has begun a new effort at Clementine West in the search in high grade sulphide deposits.

The purchase of Buchans also gave them control over the Woodstock Manganese project in New Brunswick as well as the Lundberg Project.

The most dramatic increase has been since the beginning of the year.  Although one can expect a major retrenchment of this stock for the month of February because of the rapid rise of this stock in January the trend for the first half of 2014 should be upward bound.  The time to buy this stock will be when it reaches or better yet, drops below 0.42 to account for the market correction of this stock.
