Congo in Focus: Barrick and Ivanhoe Pave the Way for DRC Gold

  • Commodities

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.

Iran Conflict, Energy Crisis, and Supply Chains in Focus: Power Metallic as a Lever for Strategic Metal Supply

Geopolitical tensions are once again moving to the forefront of financial markets. The looming kerosene and diesel shortages are a cause for concern for global industry. This is due to a multitude of geopolitical conflicts, which are having far-reaching effects on global economic structures. Iran, for instance, is still in a position to exert significant influence, and there is little sign of US dominance. This brings the abundant fossil fuel reserves of neighboring countries into focus—with the Strait of Hormuz at the center as a logistical hotspot. Toll systems for tankers and cargo ships to pass through the strait are being discussed. This disruption to international supply chains drives up costs for industry and end consumers. Taking this further, critical metals like copper are also coming back into the spotlight. As bulk goods, they must be transported across the seas to processing sites. The energy transition, storage technologies, and data centers demand massive amounts of copper. Power Metallic Mines is tapping into precisely this dynamic with its NISK project in Canada. A highly attractive investment opportunity is emerging.

GBC Targets CAD 3.00 for Antimony Resources, Poised to Secure Western Supply

Created and published on behalf of Antimony Resources Corp.

Imagine a raw material that hardly anyone is aware of, yet is found in every piece of ammunition, every night-vision device, and every solar panel. This gray semimetal is called antimony, and the Western world sources it almost exclusively from China and Russia. After Beijing curtailed exports in late 2024, the price of antimony skyrocketed to over USD 60,000 per ton. So the crucial question is: who will supply the West if it wants to become less dependent on China? Antimony Resources could provide the answer with its Bald Hill project in New Brunswick.

Iran Crisis: Billions in Weapons and Technology – Are Rheinmetall, RENK, and Group Eleven Set to Soar?

Later today, the next—already postponed—ultimatum regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz could begin to unfold with significant consequences. US President Donald Trump has made it unmistakably clear on his own social media platform that the West will no longer tolerate the restriction or threat to international trade routes. For investors, this underscores a critical reality: the supply of industrial goods is increasingly fragile and may require fundamental restructuring over the long term. Ongoing conflicts, particularly in the Middle East, are forcing a rethink of global sourcing strategies for raw materials and industrial inputs. It is widely understood that building alternative supply chains will take years—if not decades. Europe, in particular, which is already under pressure, must address structural deficits across multiple sectors. For policymakers, the message is clear: decisive action is required. Meanwhile, Group Eleven Resources holds land rights covering more than 500 sq km with mineralization in critical metals—positioning it within this broader strategic shift.

Back to the Debasement Trade: Gold Stocks Like Kinross Gold, Lahontan Gold, and Newmont Poised to Benefit

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Commodities
  • Investments

Over the past year, the debasement trade has come into focus for many investors. The idea behind it is an investment strategy designed to protect one's assets from the creeping devaluation of currencies like the US dollar or the euro. As global debt continues to rise and central banks in countries like the US or Japan are massively buying up their own government debt, their currencies are being weakened. Creeping inflation, which is likely to be exacerbated by the war in the Persian Gulf, will then effectively result in taxpayers being expropriated. Economists have long realized that these countries will never repay their debts but will instead resort to massive inflation. This is what emperors and kings did in earlier times, and this is what heads of state and prime ministers will do today. Investors can protect themselves from these developments by investing in the gold sector while simultaneously generating returns.

At the crossroads of a fragile world order, the energy crisis is escalating from a marginal political issue to a matter of economic survival. Geopolitical upheavals have destabilized fossil fuel markets, while artificial intelligence's insatiable hunger for computing power is causing demand for stable energy to skyrocket. The future belongs not to a single energy source, but to a pragmatic symbiosis. In this tense landscape, clear winners are emerging for the next phase of growth. BP, as the backbone of the transition supply, secures fossil fuels; Stallion Uranium provides the indispensable, emission-free baseload for the AI revolution; and Nordex, as the driver of scaling in the renewable energy sector, sets the standard for expansion.

Created and published on behalf of Antimony Resources Corp.

Driven by rising defense spending, geopolitical tensions, and highly concentrated global production, the long-neglected critical raw material antimony is suddenly taking center stage in strategic raw materials policy. Around 90% of global production comes from just three countries, led by China. Antimony Resources owns the largest deposit in North America and is thus gaining geopolitical significance. The stock is increasingly appearing on investors' radar. Analysts confirm the shares have the potential to double in value.

Nothing works without tungsten: Why the price surge continues and why SpaceX, Rheinmetall, and Almonty are in the spotlight

  • hightech

Instead of chasing digital pipe dreams, investors and industry are increasingly turning their attention to tangible commodities. The supply of critical metals is essential to our prosperity. In this new era, tungsten has taken on special strategic importance. With the highest melting point of any metal and a density exactly matching that of gold, the metal is an irreplaceable component in the defense industry, aerospace, and semiconductor manufacturing. The current market environment is characterized by a massive price surge compared to the previous year, with prices exploding from around USD 300 per MTU at the start of 2025 to over USD 2,750 per MTU today. Analysts at the trade magazine Mining Journal argue in detail in a recent analysis that this development is not a speculative bubble. Rather, the rally is driven by non-negotiable demand patterns and the physical depletion of global inventories. Unlike the silver bubble of 1980, this trend is supported by a multi-year delay in the commissioning of new Western production capacity, which is why the tight price environment is likely to persist for at least another two years. For Almonty, the only Western tungsten producer building relevant capacity within these two years, this represents a unique opportunity.
