According to a study, the increasing demand for copper in data centers could cause the annual deficit to rise to six million tons by 2035. The expansion of power grids and renewable energies such as wind energy are also driving demand. Copper is one of the most versatile raw materials in industry. Demand in these areas is expected to double. At the same time, a bottleneck appears to be looming on the copper market.

There is a lack of sufficient new discoveries, while the ore quality of existing mines is declining. The areas in which copper is used are immense. Whether as an alloy, for example in fittings or shipbuilding, in cables in the telecommunications sector and in computer technology, or for the manufacture of lithium-ion batteries, copper is practically ubiquitous. As a result, copper consumption has risen steadily in recent years. This year, most industrial metals have posted gains, with copper in particular seeing a significant increase in price.

The price of the reddish metal is currently close to a record high of more than US$11,000 per ton. Production losses, weak production growth in recent years, and rising demand are making a deficit increasingly likely. This is particularly true if the important construction sector in China recovers. The government there is already said to be considering further stimulus measures for the construction sector. Investments in companies with copper in their projects should pay off in the future.

Mogotes Metals – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/mogotes-metals-inc/ – owns copper and gold projects in Argentina and Chile. The Filo Sur copper project (Argentina) appears particularly promising.

Meridian Mining – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/meridian-mining-uk-societas/ – has the promising Cabaçal project (copper, gold, silver) in Brazil in a region with a well-developed and productive mining sector.
