Demand for copper is being driven by electromobility and storage applications, as well as by the expansion of construction activity and electrification. Solar and wind power plants consume huge amounts of copper. At the same time, capital expenditure on new projects is rising and ore quality is declining. In addition, the discovery of new resources is slowing down. As a result, it is widely assumed that supply will lag behind demand. This is because the global energy and digitalization transition is in full swing. In the long term, therefore, the outlook for the reddish metal and the mining companies involved in it should be good. Currently, the price of copper has also turned upward again. The fact that there can always be problems with the supply of copper is demonstrated by a recent accident at Chile’s largest copper mine. The mine partially collapsed after an earthquake. It previously accounted for around seven percent of Chile’s copper production, which is not insignificant. And if a general economic recovery gains momentum, any disruption on the supply side could drive up copper prices.

Some mining companies have gold in addition to copper in their projects. This should be a good combination in the medium to longer term. Gold is virtually an anchor in times of crisis or uncertainty. Gold provides currency protection and has proven itself over the centuries. On September 17, the US Federal Reserve will announce its interest rate decision. A rate cut is widely expected, which could give the gold price a further boost.
