  • More mining stories please

    Recent district stories by the podcast in the Tonopah and the Yukon were good and far more interesting than hearing subjective and mostly uninformed thoughts by the host on politics and ESG. More discussion about exciting mining plays and better company CEO interviews are needed. Stick to mining and less on your own views and those unrelated to mining developments

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Copper tariff decision could trigger unwind, ft Bloomberg Intelligence’s Grant Sporre
Q: Grant, what's your assessment of whether copper is currently a physical-tight story or more of a financial play driven by tariffs and policy signals?
Copper appears physically tight with elevated premiums, but the broader market is not in a simple one-way bullish trend; the dynamic is mixed with potential for an unwind if tariff certainty improves, particularly if the US considers dialing back refined copper tariffs, which could realign flows and loosen the extreme arbitrage between US and international markets.
Geopolitics of mining in the Sahel and Myanmar, ft George McLeod
Q: What could shift the balance on rare earths in the next few years?
Western countries are pursuing refining capacity and alternative supply chains, which could reduce China's dominance and potentially lead to a glut once new processing comes online, changing the geopolitical calculus around these materials.
Geopolitics of mining in the Sahel and Myanmar, ft George McLeod
Q: How is Myanmar affecting the rare earths dynamic and India-China competition?
India is attempting to access Myanmar's rare earths, while China maintains a stronger ground game and has backed various rebel and government actors; the result is a delicate balance of access and leverage that will shape future supplies.
Geopolitics of mining in the Sahel and Myanmar, ft George McLeod
Q: What are you seeing in West Africa and the Sahel in terms of mining security and governance?
Mining operators are creating multi-layer security structures, sometimes with their own perimeters and even airstrips, to continue operations as central governments weaken; this shifts risk away from governments and toward private security while still allowing production.
Gold dealers face ‘credit crunch’, ft CPM Group’s Jeffrey Christian
Q: How do you see Jackson Hole impacting gold in the near term?
Jackson Hole is viewed as a catalyst for shifting expectations: if the Fed signals hawkishness but doesn't sharply tighten, gold could rally on the uncertainty and inflation concerns, while a more decisive hawkish stance could dampen gold in the short term but eventually support higher prices as inflation concerns persist.
