Barrick Gold Corp. Chairman Peter Munk forecasts "Large Scale Buying Of Gold".......

``That impact on holders of U.S. dollars in China or Russia or Abu Dhabi or Kuwait is that they're going to say, `What is that going to mean for the U.S. dollar, and what alternative are we going to have?''' Munk said in an interview in New York. ``So gold is going to have very powerful support.'' Munk, 80, founded Toronto-based Barrick in 1983 and made it the world's largest gold producer.
