Corrections can occur either as a scary move down (this is what mining stocks are doing) or they can occur as a frustrating sideways churn. Either one can reset sentiment and build the fuel for the next rally. 

Miners and silver are carving out C-wave declines. Gold on the other hand hasn't made a lower low yet and there is the possibility that gold is forming a triangle. Triangles are continuation patterns and very bullish. 

Price needs to hold the FOMC low though for this pattern to remain intact. Gold needs to get some traction tomorrow and Monday.
