Copper at Record High: Investors Benefit from Ivanhoe Mines, Power Metallic Mines, and Southern Copper
Despite all the concerns about the global economy, copper continues to shine. The red industrial metal is currently trading at an all-time high, and nothing seems capable of derailing this trend. And that is clearly due to supply-side factors. The mudslide disaster at the massive Grasberg mine in Indonesia last September, as well as the recent slump in copper production in Chile (-14% in March), demonstrate just how fragile production is. And that is driving prices up. Banks such as Goldman Sachs and Commerzbank are now extremely bullish. The US investment bank recently raised its forecasts; it now predicts an average price of USD 13,800 per ton for 2027. The Frankfurt-based bank is singing the same tune and sees the price stabilizing in the USD 14,000 range.

Congo in Focus: Barrick and Ivanhoe Pave the Way for DRC Gold
The global mining industry is at a turning point—demand for new deposits is rising, while globalization is increasingly reaching its limits, making diversified and redundant supply chains essential. In this market environment, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has moved beyond its traditional role as a mere raw material supplier and is undergoing a significant transformation. The progress being made in the country is exemplified by the successes of companies like Barrick Mining and Ivanhoe Mines. Their multi-billion-dollar investments demonstrate that large-scale operations are indeed feasible in the DRC. The country's geological potential has once again drawn attention due to the recent record production at Barrick Mining's Kibali mine. While major corporations are successfully advancing projects in the DRC, junior explorers are also increasingly attracting investor attention. DRC Gold is capitalizing on this momentum and identifying new resources through drilling programs in close proximity to existing projects. Against the backdrop of declining reserves among major producers such as Barrick and Ivanhoe, the smaller company, led by German CEO Klaus Eckhof, offers an exciting opportunity to benefit from the new growth in the Congo.

Focus on Copper and PGMs: A Solid Foundation with Ivanhoe and Sibanye – Analyst Favorite Power Metallic Mines
Decarbonization and AI-driven digital infrastructure are driving demand for platinum group metals (PGMs) and copper. Modern data centers use approximately 27 metric tons of copper per megawatt of installed capacity. According to S&P Global, a global supply shortfall of 10 million metric tons of copper is looming by 2040. In this environment, industry giants such as Ivanhoe Mines and Sibanye-Stillwater are benefiting from their massive production capacities and supplying the industry. For investors seeking exceptional returns, however, the Canadian explorer Power Metallic Mines is coming into focus. The company is exploring a polymetallic system in Québec that, according to a detailed analysis by GBC Research, is likely to undergo a significant revaluation. Using examples of major producers, we explain why Power Metallic is active in an attractive sector and what opportunities the stock offers.
