lease rates are what the bullion banks will loan their gold for. the gold in turn is sold into the market and the money invested in bonds and such at a higher rate. This is called contango: the difference between the rates.

What the-privateer is saying is that as gold become more attractive people see it more as a long term investment instead of a short term investment. The resulting rise in the 1 year rate with POG increasing is one more confirmation that we are in a bull market.

Hope that helps and I didn't hack it too badly.
