vintage wear is now a high-fashion statement. What if reduce, reuse and recycle applied to everything? Then you have an idea what the Circular Economy is about. Massive change is occurring in the metals and minerals industry. The status quo is no longer societally acceptable. Investor expectations of excellence in ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) performance continue to rise. Our industry also has a unique potential to accelerate progress on the Sustainable Development Goals during the Decade of Action, called upon by the United Nations. Now, we are also starting to become aware of the circular economy and our role in it. But firstly, what is the circular economy? For many of us this is a relatively new concept. Since the industrial revolution, our perfectly oiled economy has operated as if raw materials and energy were infinite. But we are reaching the limits of both our finite planet, and business-asusual. The circular economy offers an alternative, summarized as an economic system that encompasses and encourages resource recycling, reuse, repair and remanufacturing, ultimately creating a circular closed loop system which minimises the use of new mined product. In other words, compared to the prevailing linear take-make-waste economy, it avoids the use of nonrenewable resources, and preserves or enhances renewable ones. In so doing, it aims to improve the proSee COMMENTARY / 8

| Company also reveals plan to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050

ining and commodities trader Glencore (LSE: GLEN) announced on December 4 that Gary Nagle, the head of its coal division, would replace Ivan Glasenberg as the company’s top boss early next year. Glasenberg, who has led Glencore since 2002, said in 2018 that he would step down in three to five years. At the time, he said the firm had already begun training a small group of front runners to take over the post. “It’s time to hand over to a new generation and a new leader,” Glasenberg said on an investor call. “We’ve decided that over the next six months I will be working closely with Gary Nagle, who will be taking over from me.” Nagle, like Glasenberg, is South African and holds degrees in commerce and accounting from the University of Witwatersrand. Just as the departing CEO, Nagle built his career by rising through the ranks of Glencore’s coal department, where he has worked for the past 20 years. The announcement came as the Swiss firm revealed an ambitious plan to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 through reducing its direct and indirect carbon footprint by 40% by 2035, compared to 2019 levels. Glencore, one of the world’s largest coal producers, also said it would focus on investing in metals considered “vital” for the transition to a lower carbon world. While the company noted that thermal coal’s weight on the group’s earnings has dropped between 10% and 15%, from 25-40%, it said it did not believe that selling its coal mines would help reduce associated emissions. Glencore has already made some concessions. It promised in February 2019 to cap coal production, not to make any further coal acquisitions that would add to overall output, and to align its business strategy with Paris climate targets. “Our ambition to be a net zero total emissions company by 2050 reflects our commitment to contribute to the global effort to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement,” Glasenberg said in an update to investors.

Companies with ESG focus can attract higher valuations, ERM says ESG

| Consultancy surveys 54 private equity investment professionals from around the world “THERE HAS BEEN A COMPLETE SHIFT IN WHAT THE MONEY IS LOOKING FOR AS INVESTOR AWARENESS INCREASES.”

nvironmental, Social and Governance (ESG) is now a key part of investment decisions in the private capital markets, sustainability consulting firm ERM concluded in a recent report. ERM surveyed 54 private equity investment professionals from around the world about how ESG impacts their decision making when choosing companies in which to invest. The results of the poll underscore the important and growing role ESG plays in investment choices and that it no longer is considered “just a risk management issue” but is now viewed as an important factor in “value enhancement potential.” Among the survey’s key findings were that 50% of those surveyed said ESG credentials are a factor in winning deals and 70% believed that ESG ‘sell-side’ due diligence will be undertaken increasingly over the next three to five years. “Anticipating buyer questions is the primary reason for including ESG in vendor packs,” the study found. Eighty-six percent of the respondents said they have access to a dedicated ESG Lead/ Team that offers this expertise. The survey also found that 25% of firms have an ESG fund or strategy and actively seek out ESG-focused investments, while 60% of those sur-

veyed said there needs to be regular and in-depth board engagement with companies to make sure that important ESG factors are addressed during ownership. In addition, since ERM’s last survey in 2016, there has been a “three-fold increase in the perception of ESG as a positive contribution to the exit multiple in sales processes, which

also explains the trend to have better ESG disclosures in exits.” Finally, 93% of those polled “agreed that focusing on ESG themes, that is, companies offering solutions or services to address sustainability challenges and trends, will generate good investment opportunities” and 83% said they believe that Europe will lead the way as a “hotbed of ESG invest-

WATER RIGHTS UNDER SCRUTINY IN CHILE’S ATACAMA DESERT

By Tom Azzopardi, Special to the Northern Miner (September 8, 2020) In one of the world’s driest deserts, the battle for water is heating up. Mining companies sifting northern Chile’s Atacama Desert for copper, lithium and other minerals are increasingly finding water is their most precious resource. Vital to processes such as concentrating and leaching, miners typically extract the water they need from aquifers located high in the Andes Mountains having obtained the necessary rights from Chile’s water authority. But their ability to exercise those rights is increasingly being challenged by environmentalists, farmers and the authorities who say the huge expansion of mining activity and climate changes have shrunk water supplies.

AMERICAN PACIFIC ACQUIRES MADISON WITH RIO TINTO AS PARTNER

By Trish Saywell (April 16 2020)

For a junior exploration company with a market capitalization of $3 million, the prospect of acquiring a gold project with a past producing mine in the U.S., where Rio Tinto (NYSE: RIO; LSE: RIO; ASX: RIO) may spend up to US$30 million to earn a 70% stake, sounds almost too good to be true. But that’s exactly what American Pacific Mining pulled off this week in an all-share deal with privately held Madison Metals worth about $2.4 million. “We are by no short order thrilled to have picked up this asset — and to pick it up with a joint-venture partner like Rio Tinto was a coup,” says Warwick Smith, American Pacific Mining’s founder and CEO. “It’s not very often that a company our size gets to team up with the second-largest company in the world.”

Thedirective, issued late Wednesday night, asks the Interior Department to explore using the 70-year-old Defense Production Act to speed up mines development. It also calls for a report evaluating possible measures such as tariffs quotas or other trade restrictions targeting China and “other non-market foreign adversaries.”

NEW MANAGEMENT BRINGS ‘MODERN THINKING’ TO ENVIRONMENTALLY CHALLENGED BUNKER HILL MINE

By Carl A. Williams (November 27, 2020) For over a century, the mines of Silver Valley in the Coeur d’Alene Mountains in northern Idaho have been a source of tremendous mineral wealth. From the mid-1880s, those mines have yielded almost 10 million tonnes of zinc, lead and silver. The region’s most famous mine, Bunker Hill, was first discovered in 1885 by Noah Kellogg. (In 1894, the nearby Milo prospecting camp was renamed in his honour, eventually leading to the establishment of Kellogg city.)

Gold supported by the divine proportion COLUMN

| Precious metal price helped by a long dead Italian mathematician

BY DR. CHRIS HINDE Special to The Northern Miner

W

hat a Leap Year it has been! Quite apart from Brexit in Europe, a chaotic Presidential election in the United States and Covid-19 everywhere, we have uncertainty over the price direction of gold as this horrid year draws to a close. I am neither a chartist nor a particular exponent of gold, but I can’t see any concern about the precious metal’s price direction — at least not yet. The reason has much to do with a long dead Italian mathematician. Gold has enjoyed a five-year bull market since falling to barely US$1,060 per oz. in December 2015. The price was particularly buoyant in 2019 and the first half of this year, with the precious metal reaching over US$2,070 per oz. in August. Gold has since faltered, and analysts have scuttled to explain the mechanism. The explanation has been known for over 100 years, when stock-exchange brokers noticed that strong upward price movements tended to suffer intermittent corrections of one-third or two-thirds of the initial movement. The precise ratios had actually been established 500 years earlier by one of the most famous names in mathematics, Fibonacci. This is not, however, the name of the mathematician. Born circa 1175, Leonardo Pisano was the son of Gug-

A gold pour at Barrick’s Pueblo Viejo joint venture in the Dominican Republic.

lielmo Bonaccio (the name Pisano simply indicated he came from Pisa, where his father was a merchant). Pisano died in 1250, and, centuries later, when scholars were studying his work they misinterpreted ‘filius Bonacci’ (meaning ‘son of Bonaccio’) as his surname. Pisano is immortalized by the famous sequence 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21 etcetera, such that each number, after the first two, is the sum of the two preceding ones. However, this sequence had already been described by the Indian mathematician Virahanka in circa 700 AD, and Pisano’s real claim to fame is describing a method of replacing the unwieldy Roman numbering system (I, IV, X etc.). In his book, Liber Abaci (‘The Book of Calculations’), published in

1202, Pisano explained that commercial and mathematical calculations could be done using nine Indian numbers (1 to 9) and the Arabic sign ‘0’ (called zephirum). The term ‘Fibonacci sequence’ was first used in the 19th century by number theorist Edouard Lucas. The sequence appears frequently in nature and mathematics, and is extremely popular amongst chartists to predict price retracements. If each number in the sequence is divided by the preceding value (giving 1.0, 2.0, 1.5, 1.67 etc.), the values eventually settle down to a fixed irrational number (meaning its terms go on forever) of just over 1.618. Called the golden mean, divine proportion or phi, this value is related, through trigonometry, to

BARRICK GOLD

Archimedes’ Constant (pi), which is another irrational number (almost 3.1416) that is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. For unknown reasons, these Fibonacci ratios seem to play a role in the stock market, just as they do in nature. For chartists, the most popular Fibonacci retracements are 61.8% and 38.2%, which are found by dividing one number in the series by the number that follows it (yielding 0.618) or by the number located two places to the right (0.382). So how does this support gold? Helped by a weakening U.S. dollar, the price of gold rose 36% in under five months following an interim low of US$1,490 per oz. in March. As the dollar recovered, the precious metal retreated, but has gained ground

again following turmoil over the U.S. presidential election. The gold price benefits from political and economic uncertainty, of course, and the latter threat has eased recently, not least following the announcement of effective coronavirus vaccines. Nevertheless, low interest rates and high inflation are likely to benefit the precious metal for much of 2021 as investors tend to switch from the U.S. dollar to gold during times of monetary easing. At the end-November interim low of US$1,770 per oz., gold had fallen US$300 per oz. from its peak of four months ago. At the time of writing (Dec. 14), the precious metal is trading at almost US$1,830 per ounce. An entirely normal Fibonacci retracement of 38.2% on the over US$1,000 per oz. price appreciation over the past five years would have taken gold to below US$1,700 per ounce. That support level was not tested, and, even for a non-chartist, gold’s upward progress seems untroubled for now. Having said that, gold in the United Kingdom is trading today at an historically very heady £1,370 per oz., making the metal alone in my wedding ring worth over £400 (US$540); blimey.

risk culture, and competence, played a significant role in each.” Citing statistics from the World Mine Tailings Failures study released in 2019, ERM noted that historically there have been between two and five major failures and 35 minor failures annually. “Minimizing the risk of tailings dam failures is one of the greatest challenges facing the sector,” ERM stated in its report. “Despite the billions of dollars being invested and the recent launch of a global industry standard on tailings management, there is a concern that the industry is destined to do ‘too little too late’

to prevent further catastrophic incidents.” While the technical and engineering causes of tailings dam disasters have been covered extensively and include three major factors – slope instability, overtopping and foundation stability – ERM stated, “unfortunately the organizational and human or ‘adaptive’ causes have not been so well researched and yet these have been just as significant in contributing to catastrophic failures.” “An over-reliance on engineering standards and considerations has led to a focus on the low likelihood of tailings dam failures – yet they

continue to occur,” ERM noted. One problem is that decisionmakers “often rely on layers of controls that are reviewed by peers, subject matter experts and independent boards,” ERM found, but “do not dig deeply enough into how the controls are being implemented and how well they are understood by the workers managing the dam.” “Indeed in almost all cases when a third party review is conducted of a tailings storage facility (TSF) considering the management of controls (e.g. training, deviation reporting, corrective action tracking,

| Initial iron ore production expected to be 8 million tonnes per year

amarco is expected to resume activities this month, five years after the Fundão dam tragedy. On November 5, 2015, the dam, owned by Samarco — controlled by Vale (NYSE: VALE) and BHP (NYSE: RIO; LSE: RIO) — burst, releasing 39.2 million cubic meters of tailings waste in the Rio Doce Basin, killing 19 people. At the time it was Brazil’s biggest environmental disaster. Brazilian prosecutors said in October that the Renova Foundation, created by the miners for the reparation of the damages did not deliver on any of its promises. Samarco told MINING.COM it is finalizing starting protocols at its new tailings filtering plant at the Germano unit in Minas Gerais state, which will allow 80% of the total tailings to be dry stacked. The remaining 20%, composed of water and fine ore, will be disposed in Cava Alegria Sul, a rocky natural containment structure. Samarco received the Collective Operational License to resume activities in October 2019. According to the company, the resumption of activities will be gradual, with a concentrator in Germano, and a pelletizing plant in Ubu, Espírito Santo state, totaling 26% of the capacity. The company expects initial production of eight million tonnes of iron ore per year. In 2015, the year of the tragedy,

the company produced 25 million tonnes of iron ore. Samarco said it has developed a new security system, which includes a monitoring and inspection center. The company also conducts tests to reuse the tailings waste in construction. Four kilometers of roads in the Mariana region have already been paved with reused material. “We have lived through learning for the past five years,” said Samarco CEO Rodrigo Vilela. Despite the destruction caused by the dam’s burst, Mariana authorities are eagerly awaiting the resumption of mining activities. Until the tragedy, 89% of the city’s tax collection came from Vale and Samarco. The disaster led to an unemployment rate of 30%. “The population has a lot of respect for Samarco due to the company’s operating time in the region,” the mayor of Mariana, Duarte Junior, told MINING.COM.

BHP

“We hope the resumption generates jobs in the city.” Samarco currently has approximately 1,400 employees. Duarte Junior also claimed that investments promised by Renova Foundation, such as the construction of an industrial park and investments in a local milk cooperative are proceeding at a very slow pace. “The return of operations will allow Samarco to contribute even more to the development of the territories where the company operates,” Samarco stated in a press release. Of the 21 people who had been charged in 2016 by the Federal Public Ministry for the crime of qualified homicide with possible intent, five continue to respond to a lawsuit in the Federal Court. Today, however, they are responding to flood and landslide crimes followed by death, as well as environmental crimes. The crime of homicide was removed from the process in 2019.

Vale, BHP and Samarco are defendants in this process. The consultancy company Ramboll concluded in 2019 that none of the 512 families that had their homes affected by the dam burst had been resettled and 56% of the 414 temporary homes presented some type of inadequacy. The average time to receive emergency financial aid was three years. A study by researcher Liz Matsunaga, a fellow at Instituto Escolhas, showed an increase in hospitalizations for mental illness, with cases of stress and schizophrenia, and an increase in alcohol and drug consumption. “The public health system in the 41 affected municipalities has received around 26,000 people in the past five years due to conditions related to the disaster,” Matsunaga said. “The disaster had a bigger impact at Mariana because of the destruction of the ecosystem. People had ties of generations to their homes.” After the disaster, a study published by the Latin American and the Caribbean Economic Association also showed a sharp decline in birth weight and an increase in infant mortality for children exposed in utero to the tragedy. Samarco said it is committed to remediate and compensate the victims and that up to September 2020, over US$1.9 billion had been allocated as compensation.

communication, and governance processes), significant breakdowns emerge quite readily. Any control strategy cannot be devoid of the human factor.” ERM noted that based on disclosed information on about 600 TSFs around the world, there are more than 1.3 million people living downstream and within 20 km of the waste storage dams. Of those, 57% live downstream of TSFs built using “upstream” construction methods. According to ERM, the upstream model “is considered to be the lowest initial cost for a raised tailings embankment due to the minimal amount of initial fill material required,” noting that about half of these upstream models are operational and another 25% are described as ‘inactive’ but haven’t been closed down or rehabilitated. “Our analysis has considered the location and topography of these TSFs as well as the plausible flow trajectories,” ERM said. “Using satellite imagery, we have estimated that more than 70,000 sq. km of land, (an area the size of Scotland) is at risk of impact from these tailings facilities should they fail.” ERM also found that those people at greatest risk are living downstream of TSFs associated with copper mining operations. In an interview, Louise Pearce, ERM’s global managing mining and metals lead, said the report followed up data published by The Investor Mining & Tailings Safety Initiative, which is led by the Church of England Pension Board and Sweden’s AP Funds Council of Ethics. In April 2019, the Initiative requested damby-dam disclosure information from mining companies after 270 people were killed in the Vale tailings dam disaster at Brumadinho in Brazil. The request was issued to over 600 companies and was backed by 100 investors with nearly US$13 trillion in assets under management. Most major mining companies, Pearce said, have committed to implementing the standard and ERM sees this as a great step. “Our paper highlights the need to pay more attention to the human factors associated with managing dams safely and the importance of considering the downstream consequences, with much greater rigor,” Pearce said. “When implementing the global standards, mining companies need to place an early emphasis on the community and the human aspects equally with engineering design consideration.” “Are you talking to the communities? Do they really know how much time they have to react if something goes wrong?” TNM

orthern Vertex Mining (TSXV: NEE; US-OTC: NHVCF) and Eclipse Gold Mining (TSXV: EGLD; US-OTC: EGLPF) have entered into a definitive arrangement agreement for an at-market merger to create a gold producer focused on the western United States. With Northern Vertex as the resulting company, the new entity would hold the Moss heap leach mine in Arizona (through Northern Vertex) as well as the Hercules exploration project in Nevada’s Walker Lane trend (through Eclipse). In an emailed statement to The Northern Miner, Douglas Hurst, a director of Eclipse and chair of the combined company, highlighted the synergistic timing of the transaction given the recent milestones at both assets and their timing within the greater mining cycle. “Now is a great time to complete this transaction. Operations at the Moss mine have found their stride and recent permitting is set to unlock the entire property with 538 new drill ready sites. We expect results from phase II drilling from Hercules in January and will have a strong balance sheet and good cash position to go in and follow up. We are still early in the cycle and have an opportunity to create value through expanding near mine resources, exploration drilling and acquisition focused in the Western U.S.” As part of the deal, each existing common share of Eclipse would be exchanged for 1.09 shares of North-

Glencore, also a major cobalt and copper miner, highlighted the company’s current exposure to those two metals, which are essential in the production of electric vehicle batteries and renewables. The mining and metals sector is facing greater scrutiny from communities in host countries, end consumers and society at large, which are demanding a lower carbon footprint as well as transparent and ethical supply chains. Most top miners are well aware of the need for change, and have already kicked off company-wide initiatives. BHP (NYSE: BHP; LSE: BHP; ASX: BHP), the world’s no. 1 miner, has committed $400 million over five years to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from its operations and mined commodities. It has also vowed to reduce its Scope 3 emissions — those generated when customers burn or process the raw materials it mines — which are 40 times greater than those generated by its mines and oilfields. Rio Tinto (NYSE: RIO; LSE: RIO; ASX: RIO), the world’s second-largest mining company, has vowed to spend US$1 billion over the next five years to reduce its carbon footprint and have “net zero” emissions by 2050. The company, however, has yet to commit to tackle its Scope 3 emissions. Fortescue Metals Group (ASX: FMG), the world’s fourth-largest iron ore producer, brought forward in June a self-imposed deadline to be carbon-neutral. It now expects to reach that goal by 2040, 10 years earlier than its closest rivals BHP,

he sudden removal of a popular president amidst the coronavirus pandemic plunged Peru into chaos in November. On Nov. 9, Peru’s single-chamber Congress voted to impeach President Martín Vizcarra amid allegations that, while a provincial governor, he had received a payment of 5 million Peruvian Sols (US$1.4 million) from a company awarded the contract to build a public hospital in the southern city of Moquegua. The move was the latest dramatic political development in one of the world’s leading mining jurisdictions. Peru’s most popular president in a generation, Vizcarra’s sudden removal from office sparked major protests in Lima and other cities accusing the lawmakers who ejected him of launching a coup d’etat against the legitimate government. When two young protesters were shot dead during clashes with police in Lima, Vizcarra’s successor Manuel Merino resigned as president after just five days in the post. A day later Congress elected economist Francisco Sagasti as its new head and subsequently President of the Republic. Since then, the situation has calmed significantly. Protests have subsided after the new head of state promised to hold the post until next

ductivity of resources, design out waste and pollution, and keep products and materials in use for longer, while regenerating the natural systems upon which our existence is dependent. The circular economy concept is being adopted by governments around the world, including the Government of Canada. It features in Canada’s own ‘Canadian Minerals and Metals Plan’ calling for a national strategy and global positioning of the country as a continued world leader in the mining sector. The concept is not, however, just in the arena of policy makers. Increasingly, major mining companies are building circular concepts into their long-term strategic planning and modelling, signaling a transformation from virgin mineral product miners to metals and minerals solution providers. Circular principles like reprocessing, repurposing and designing out waste aren’t new to our industry. We apply them regularly to increase efficiency, and reduce waste, water or carbon footprints. The concept of value from waste is not a stretch. Ninety percent of tailings produced in Canada each year come from metal mines, still retaining plenty of recoverable and valuable material, such as rare earth elements, gold, nickel, cobalt, and tungsten. Further, waste rock, tailings, slag and rock dust can be repurposed for applications from construction materials, to solar energy, to agricultural soil additives and more. However, the implications for the mining industry are far more profound than just site-level efficiencies. Recycling activity across all metals and mineral commodities is set to exponentially intensify in the coming years. Primary producers will soon face tough competition from recyclers as end use consumers demand to know product content provenance

July when a newly elected president is due to take office. While Vizcarra’s ousting from office and the subsequent turmoil had little impact on Peru’s world-class mining industry, observers fear that the country’s increasingly chaotic political scene is taking its toll on its ability to attract investment in the long term. Even before Vizcarra resigned, all five presidents to hold office this century were under investigation. In March 2018, Vizcarra’s predecessor Pedro Pablo Kunzcynski resigned over payments from Odebrecht, the

One in 2018 showed raw extraction costs thirteen times as much as e-waste “urban mining”. European Union research indicates that recycling just forty-one mobile phones can yield as much gold as one tonne of 1 g/t ore — there are over 14 billion mobile phones in the world. Notably, downstream sourcing decisions will immensely impact efforts to meet corporate Net Zero Green House Gas (GHG) emissions targets, depending on whether these decisions are based on linear or circular principles. For example, recycled steel in manufacturing reduces energy use by a whopping 95%. Similarly, a single tonne of recycled aluminium saves nine tonnes in CO2 emissions. For some, the future is now. Already, around half the copper demand in Europe is met by recycled material. Already, thirty percent of ArcelorMittal’s steel is made using scrap instead of iron ore. Already, one of the world’s preeminent recyclers, Nucor, has become the largest North American steel supplier. In 2019, the company recycled 16.1 million tonnes of scrap and earned revenue of US$22.6 billion!

Already, Apple’s MacBook Air chassis is manufactured from 100% recycled aluminium. The list goes on. As the Cleantech Boom 2.0 begins, startups like Li-Cycle and Redwood Materials are popping up, adopting closed-loop, highly-efficient new recovery processes and gaining notable market share from customers such as Amazon and Panasonic. And where startups aren’t satisfying demand, companies like Tesla, Audi, BMW, Volkswagen, Groupe Renault and more are rapidly stepping up to create their own recycling loops, either fully in-house or through new partnerships. In the Li-Cycle example their mission is “Making lithium-ion batteries a truly circular and sustainable product.” Of note, is the significant involvement and investment of mining executives, both on management and as backers, in TechMet. This month the company increased capacity to 10,000 tonnes per year to become North America’s largest spent lithium-ion batteries recycler. Like circular economy principles, such vertically-integrated business models are not new to mining.

Their in-house disassembly robots continue to evolve, from Liam, to Daisy, to Dave, now recovering 29 ounces of gold, 240 ounces of silver, and nearly 2 tonnes of aluminum for every 100,000 iPhones deconstructed (which only takes 500 hours). In a smartphone first, the iPhone’s Taptic Engine now sports 100% recycled rare earth elements. While some traditional metal and mineral buyers will create their own circular product loops, many others will want to stick to their core business. This presents the emerging opportunity of access over product ownership models, know as servitization or Product-As-A-Service (PaaS). After orbiting the business world for over fifty years, this business model is now taking off in every corner of the global economy. Moving well beyond newer household names like Uber, AirBnB or Car2Go, countless PaaS applications have already been adopted by long-established companies: Philips leases lamps; Rolls-Royce, jet engines; Michelin, tires; Xerox. copy machines. What will “metal-as-a-service” offered from a minerals solutions company look like?

On November 24, the government issued US$4 billion worth of bonds including its first 100-year bond, backed by a confirmation of its BBB+ sovereign debt rating from ratings agency S&P Global Ratings. The bonds attracted an interest rate of just 3.23%, or just 170 points above U.S. Treasuries. Nor has the gridlock in Lima gummed the wheels of bureaucracy. Permitting and community engagement procedures for new mining projects are continuing although slowed by the difficulties imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic, says Luquman Shaheen, CEO and president of Panoro Minerals (TSXV: PML), which is developing the Cotabambas copper project in southern Peru. That’s good news for miners and the country. Giant mines such as Glencore’s (LSE: GLEN) Antapaccay, MMG’s Las Bambas, and Chinalco’s Toromocho have almost doubled Peru’s copper output over the last decade, making it the world’s second largest exporter of the metal as well as a major producer of gold, silver, tin, and zinc. The expansion of the mining industry has driven Peru’s economic growth, with poverty levels falling See PERU / 15

“There is a strong rationale for us to engage with the circular economy that is strategic both from a planetary boundaries perspective and in order to support and accelerate our company’s ambitions. Furthermore, our customers are demanding it…If I look back over the years, we have characterized ourselves as a mining company, today we characterize ourselves as a metals and mining company, and tomorrow we could very well be categorizing ourselves as a materials solution company.” Megatrends of emerging technology, disruptive innovation, supply chain volatility, sourcing transparency, resource scarcity, social unrest, climate change and economic anxiety are converging to accelerate the circular economy trend as part of our collective progress on at least 7 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. As we move towards a future powered by ‘green metals’, circular closed loop industrial models will become the norm, not the exception. This shift invites the reimagining of the linear mineral extraction business as we know it. While raw extraction isn’t going away any time soon, opportunities for new business models, including integrated materials companies, mineral solutions providers, and even closed-loop metalas-a-service offerings, will emerge. These are opportunities that mining companies are well-positioned to seize. Lose or acquire market share, disrupt ourselves, or be disrupted. The choice is ours.

or Scotiabank senior economist Marc Desormeaux, forecasting what the 2021 global commodity markets will be like, especially for industrial metals, is heavily predicated on the ability of nations to respond to Covid-19 in the new year. Speaking to The Northern Miner, Desormeaux talked about the importance of dealing with the virus, while also discussing the impact a new administration in Washington under president-elect Joseph R. Biden, Jr., will have on U.S. economic recovery, as well as how China’s already surging recovery will remain a major influence on global mining markets. What do you think the metals markets are generally going to be like in 2021? MARC DESORMEAUX: Well, most of the industrial metals are entering 2021 with some pretty strong momentum, and we anticipate that going into the new year global demand recovering as we start to come out of the pandemic. Expectations of an economic rebound should continue to see support for industrial metals’ prices. The industrial metals complex has witnessed quite a significant rebound from the early year troughs that we saw at the height of the lockdown period. Iron ore, zinc, nickel – they’ve all increased by 40-45%, at least, since that early year trough. There’s been a lot of momentum across the complex. THE NORTHERN MINER:

TNM: What are your thoughts about

some of the major regions around the world in the new year? MD: China, of course, is the world’s largest metals consumer, and we expect their economy to continue to grow. It’s been an outperformer in the global downturn that’s come with Covid-19. And its strong rebound persisting is something that we expect. So, certainly from a commodities perspective, as well as from a global growth perspective, China is important and will continue to be important. Outside of China, we expect the U.S. to start to come out of this downturn more meaningfully in 2021, and Europe as well. In South America, we are watching some commodities. For instance, iron ore production is lower than we had previously anticipated, as indicated by the recent announcement by Vale of lower production output. That’s something that could certainly contribute to tightness in the iron ore markets. We’re also watching closely for the extent to which supply disruptions occur in Chile and Peru, two of the major producers of copper. If those materialize, we could see

some further upward pressure on copper prices. TNM: Can you expand a little on iron

and copper? Are there any concerns about the metals markets, and can you go into more detail about Vale’s announcement in early December that it would not make its 2020 iron ore production targets? MD: Certainly, Vale is a major global producer of iron ore and with lower anticipated production coming from them, that contributes to tightness in the markets. And on top of that, we’ve got Chinese fiscal stimulus going ahead that’s contributing to very strong steel output, steel manufacturing activity. With China expected to continue to expand going into 2021, our most recent forecast has them growing by 8.5%. That demand side, and upward pressure on iron prices, is something we expect to remain in place and continue to provide support for the [iron ore] price. And copper always gets a lot of attention from the point of view of markets. It’s been trading near its highest value since early 2013, so that’s really a lot of momentum there. It’s benefited from the improvement in risk sentiment, vaccine news, Chinese stimulus, so [copper] is one we certainly will be watching closely.

something — passage of a stimulus bill — that could be held back by partisan gridlock. And so, on that front, the outcome of the Georgia Senate run-off elections in early January will be very important. We do suspect that some stimulus will go ahead in any case, but there’s a potential upside on that front which revolves significantly on the ability of the two parties in Congress to get along and ultimately pass that package that can support the U.S. recovery. How much support do you think the new Biden administration will be able to provide to the U.S. mining industry? MD: If we were to see a stimulus package towards the upper end of the ranges being proposed, that’s something that really could provide support for the recovery, and ultimately the mining sector, on the demand side of their economy. So, that’s really what we’re watching most closely when we think about risks to the outlook and ultimately TNM:

lthough a change in the U.S. government is unlikely to ease tensions between Washington and Beijing, says CPM Group vice-president of research Rohit Savant, incoming president Biden’s approach to negotiations with China could impact the status of gold and silver under the current administration. “Hostilities between the U.S. and China will remain irrespective of who is in the White House,” he told The Northern Miner in an email. “However, Trump’s approach to trade negotiations provided a haven for precious metals, whereas Biden is expected to bring the Chinese to the negotiating table by working with U.S. allies to collectively put pressure on Beijing, which could be less supportive of silver and gold prices.”

However, Savant acknowledged that there is still considerable uncertainty over who will control the U.S. Senate next year. Should the Senate be controlled by the Republicans, he said, then there is likely to be a “dysfunctional operation of Congress,” which, he noted, will incentivise investors to hold onto and add to their precious metal holdings and could put upward pressure on precious metal prices. A Biden administration’s focus on green energy initiatives, Savant said, should support silver and platinum group metals (PGMs). These metals are used in a range of green technologies such as solar panels, fuel cells, and electrolysers and will help meet the goals of the Democratic party’s Green New Deal, which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. See ANALYSIS / 13

TNM: What sort of impact on markets

do you foresee from the incoming U.S. administration, both globally and domestically? MD: There’s a number of things to think about in terms of the Biden administration and the impact that that could have on the global economy. There’s trade, and there’s stimulus. And those are really the two factors that we are heavily focused on. In terms of trade, we do expect a degree of ‘America-first’ type policy making to persist into the new year.

lobal diamond production this year fell by more than 20% to about 113 million carats due to planned production declines by the major producers and significant pandemic-related suspensions and curtailments across the industry, Paul Zimnisky, an independent diamond analyst and consultant told The Northern Miner Zimnisky said that mines including Ekati, Aikhal, Verkhne-Munskoye, Williamson, Liqhobong and Zarya have yet to resume production following suspensions in March, April and May. Canada’s Ekati mine, the largest in the group by production output, is estimated to have produced as much as five to seven million carats annually in recent years. The New York-based industry consultant noted that unrelated to

the pandemic, Rio Tinto’s Argyle mine in Western Australia marked its final day of mining in early November after having exhausted economic reserves. The mine produced 865 million carats of rough diamonds

over its life and was the world’s largest producer of colored diamonds and the world’s primary source of pink diamonds. Zimnisky forecasts global diamond production will remain welloff until at least 2025, after the most recent high-water mark reached in 2017 of 152 million carats. He noted that global demand for diamond jewelry, after growing at a low-to-mid single digit percentage in recent years, has been materially impacted by the coronavirus pandemic and related economic fallout, and it will likely be felt well beyond 2020. “While much uncertainty remains regarding the ultimate severity and duration of the current situation, global diamond jewelry demand could fall as much as 25% in 2020, possibly not recovering to pre-pandemic levels until 2022 or 2023,” Zimnisky said.

However, he said jewelers globally have posted positive momentum in the second half of 2020 highlighting recent results from China’s Chow Tai Fook and Tiffany & Co., the largest jeweler in the world. In the first quarter of this year, Chow Tai Fook saw sales fall about 45% relative to the year before. In the second quarter, sales fell another 20% before finally rebounding 3% in the third quarter. The market in mainland China clearly stood out as the market leader for the company, more than offsetting persistent weakness in Hong Kong and Macau he said. Tiffany had a year-over-year sales decrease of 45% in the fiscal quarter ended April 30 and a 29% sales decrease in the quarter ended July 31. However, the trend significantly improved with a sales decline of only 1% for the three-month period

ended October 31, driven by standout performance in mainland China where sales were up 70%. China continues to be the bright spot and “has shown to be the industry’s strongest consumer market in recent months, led in part by strong domestic luxury consumption by the Chinese as global lockdowns have essentially halted Chinese tourism spend in primary markets such as the Americas, Western Europe and Japan.” Despite the pandemic, in the third quarter, Chow Tai Fook actually opened 257 net new stores in the mainland, boosting the company’s store count by over 6% to 4,150. Zimnisky expects consolidated rough diamond prices “will fall between 5% and 10% in 2020, followed by a recovery of a high single-digit percentage in 2021 and a subsequent slight decline in 2022, as some supply returns to market.” TNM

Critical materials markets 2021 outlook INTERVIEW

or 20 years, analyst Jon Hykawy has been looking at the global critical materials markets and providing advice to companies about the sector. The president of Toronto-based Stormcrow Capital spoke to The Northern Miner about what he thinks the new year will hold for this part of the mining industry. THE NORTHERN MINER: What do you

think the critical materials markets are generally going to be like in 2021? JON HYKAWY: Well, I hope they will be improved. There’s an old adage that the best cure for high prices is high prices, and the best cure for low prices is low prices. On the battery materials side we obviously had a weak period here with Covid striking demand in China, first, and then everywhere else thereafter. Lithium has been at a low ebb for a period of time. Contrary to what some have said,

| Sector’s global economic importance continues to rise

“THERE’S AN OLD ADAGE THAT THE BEST CURE FOR HIGH PRICES IS HIGH PRICES, AND THE BEST CURE FOR LOW PRICES IS LOW PRICES.” JON HYKAWY, PRESIDENT, STORMCROW CAPITAL

there really isn’t any more room for lithium prices to decline and, in fact, currently prices are moving up in China. And a number of the suppliers are actually withholding sales at this point, waiting for higher prices. As far as cobalt and nickel go, we’re fairly confident demand is going to increase, and that’s going to drive up the price, because we don’t have a massive supply response in behind either one of those materials. On the side of things like rare earths, we’re seeing a lot of noise in that space with prices moving up really dramatically over the last little while. Almost for certain, driven by speculative buying gambling on the willingness of the Chinese to cut off supply and drive up the price of rare earths. I’d be willing to stick my

neck out and say the Chinese are not going to intervene in the actual rare earth market. But they may well put some controls in place on other critical materials depending on what the new U.S. administration does, starting in January. TNM: What do you expect the lithium

market to be like in the new year? JH: I said earlier that lithium has been at a low [ebb] in price. The rationale behind lithium having to go higher is just that if the prices go much lower, no one is going to be able to supply spodumene to the conversion industry. So, lithium prices don’t really have a choice but to go up, provided we actually want more lithium. We’ve been pretty carefully moni-

toring spodumene prices for a couple of months now, because we’ve seen car sales, new energy vehicle sales and battery consumption in China expanding dramatically since the end of the Covid shutdown there. So the stockpile of spodumene in China is finally being worked through. And we are now seeing the beginning of price increases in spodumene, and we are seeing significant price increases in lithium carbonate. I expect to see 2021 as a year of increasing prices on the lithium side. TNM: What are your thoughts about

cobalt and nickel? JH: On the cobalt side, as goes the automotive industry, as goes battery demand, so goes cobalt pricing. The dream of zero cobalt batteries? We’re still way away from that. There are enough batteries out there, in terms of demand, that require high energy density, that we still can’t make do without cobalt. Just to be clear, cobalt is not the backbone for the energy density factor in modern lithium batteries. That’s nickel, predominantly. But

cobalt provides operational stability. And we’re not crying for cobalt, so the prices have not gone berserk. On the nickel side, there’s not really any shortage of nickel. That isn’t the issue. The issue is pure enough nickel at a low enough price. We expect to see those prices do reasonably well in 2021. We don’t see any reason for a retrenchment back to lows in nickel. There is enough demand out there, and supply will come back online. What are your expectations for rare earths? JH: I’ll say that I had higher prices forecasted for 2020 than occurred, because of the slowdown caused by the pandemic. But we’ve seen a speculative frenzy in the last few months that’s done a fair bit to drag those prices back up to our projected 2020 average. What I don’t see is that trend continuing. Chinese authorities and the rare earths companies in China learned a bit of a lesson in 2010. The story TNM:

Chinese rare earth metals surge in price REE

Law, it creates new regulations that give the government more control over such exports as technology and rare earths. “Market participants are increasingly of the view that the introduction of the new law will lead to a restriction of rare earth-based exports from China to key partners including the U.S., on the pretext that it is safeguarding its national security,” Hamilton stated. Though exports of Chinese rare earth metals have been decreasing in recent years, Hamilton’s report pointed out that rare earth-based magnet exports have actually been trending up because of increased global demand, including from the U.S. In anticipation of concerns that the Chinese government could use the new law to further curtail exports, “key customers in the U.S. (or perhaps the State Reserve) have seemingly been buying up as much material as possible, with U.S. rare earth magnet imports reaching 480 tonnes in September, the highest monthly total since 2016.” Already there have been measures introduced by nations at the policy level to address China’s dominance and bolster their domestic production of rare earths. In Africa, the European Union, Australia and the Americas, concerns about China’s control of the market have been pushing exploration and development projects, and leading to greater

B PODCAST MO Capital Markets says that a surge in the price of Chinese rare earth metals in November is a reflection of the geopolitical tensions between that country and the developed world. Commenting on the sudden price gains in a research note, BMO’s commodity analyst Colin Hamilton also said that as nations around the world consider self-sufficiency in rare earths and other critical minerals, while also enacting more trade restrictions and economic protectionism, the market “is set for long-lasting transformation over the coming years, one that we believe will likely lead to a gradual erosion of Chinese dominance in processing capacity.” November saw the prices of all major Chinese-sourced rare earths spike, but especially those used in magnets. In particular, the research note mentioned neodymium, which is the most common rare earth used in making magnets, which rose by 27% since early in November, up over 50% year to date. Several other key rare earths also increased in value last month, including dysprosium (+17%), gadolinium (+9%) and terbium (+27%). Another factor in the price surge is a new law that came into force in China on December 1, Hamilton noted. Known as the Export Control

And by late September, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order declaring a national emergency in the mining industry. This followed recommendations outlined by the U.S. Department of Commerce to establish partnerships with such allies as Canada and Australia in order to secure greater access to rare earths and other critical minerals.

Meanwhile in Canada, the government of Saskatchewan committed in August $31 million for the construction of the country’s first rare earth processing facility, which is planned to be operational by the end of 2022. With ongoing funding for new projects coming from governments, Hamilton said he expects this will provide even “further impetus to ex-China capacity build-out over the coming years.” TNM

Roskill forecasts demand for cobalt to double by 2030 COBALT

| Surplus stocks have been depleted

BY CARL A. WILLIAMS

cwilliams@northernminer.com

obalt watchers can expect demand for the blue metal to double by 2030, says Ying Lu, senior analyst at Roskill. The forecast comes even as this year saw a significant shift in global cobalt markets as both mined and refined cobalt production fell, marking the first decrease in production since 2016. “The cobalt market has been dogged by oversupply for three consecutive years,” Lu told The Northern Miner in an email. “The decrease in global production in 2020, however, has led to a relatively balanced market as surplus stocks of the metal have been depleted.” The U.K.-based analyst points to the suspension of operations at Glencore’s (LSE: GLEN) Mutanda mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in November 2019 and the temporary suspension of most of the artisanal and small-scale operations in the DRC in 2020 due to Covid-19, as the reasons for a tightening of cobalt feedstocks and cutbacks in production this year. Tighter cobalt markets, Lu said, were further exacerbated by logistics disruptions in Africa due to the pandemic, including the weeks-long closure of Durban port in South Africa, a key transition point for shipping Congolese cobalt to China.

Cobalt refining operations in China have also been affected by strict quarantine measures imposed across the country in the first four months of the year, forcing refineries to run well below capacity. The Covid-19 outbreak disrupted the growth in cobalt markets. Overall demand in 2020 is forecast to be broadly in line with 2019 but slowing down from the historical average growth rate, Lu said. “We anticipate the tightness in

cobalt feedstocks to continue in 2021, particularly in the spot market, given that a large portion of crude cobalt hydroxide production has already been locked into long-term contracts,” she said. As a consequence, Lu expects cobalt prices to rise next year and forecasts the blue metal to trade between US$18-US$20 per lb. in 2021, up from an average of US$16 per lb. in 2020. Lu also expects to see a more dis-

persed distribution of cobalt production and consumption in the coming years, with Europe and the U.S. now actively building up regional battery raw material supply chains. However, in the medium term, China will continue to dominate cobalt refining and battery manufacturing. National stockpiling of cobalt by China’s State Reserve Bureau could also potentially tighten the market, pushing cobalt prices higher, although such impacts are often limited and temporary. Since the commercialization of lithium-ion batteries — which use cobalt to boost the energy density and extend battery life — in the early 1990s, the rise in consumer electronics has underpinned the rapid growth in demand for cobalt. “Despite the reduced use of cobalt per unit in the automotive sector due to concerns over cost and ESG [environmental, social, and governance] issues, the growing penetration of EVs [electric vehicles] and the exponential growth in EV sales will boost cobalt demand, which we expect to double by 2030,” she said. In addition to increased demand for cobalt in EV markets, Lu said the rapid roll-out of 5G technology, particularly in China, will create new growth potential for the mobile electronics industry from 2021 onwards. In turn, she said, this will boost smartphone sales and cobalt demand in the medium term. TNM

s the world’s economies start to pick up following the impacts from the Covid-19 pandemic, CPM Group’s director of commodities and asset management Carlos Sanchez expects base metals markets to return to normality in 2021, supporting increases in prices. “We’re already seeing normal supply and demand dynamics returning to pre-pandemic levels for the base metal markets,” he said in an interview. “Although going into 2021, the demand-side will be aided by increased spending by governments around the world, primarily through investment in infrastructure projects, driving increases in base metal prices.” He also predicts prices to rise again in 2022, albeit at “more moderate levels.” Trade disputes, particularly between the U.S. and China, will continue into 2021, Sanchez said, but are “very unlikely” to cause friction between the two countries over base metals, such as copper, nickel and zinc, he said. The U.S., Sanchez noted, is becoming increasingly self-sufficient in several commodities, including copper. And with much of the world’s nickel produced in Indonesia and the Philippines, he doesn’t envisage any major trade issues to arise between the U.S. and China over sourcing these critical metals. According to S&P Global Market

Glencore’s San Juan de Nieva zinc plant in Spain.

Intelligence, primary nickel production in Indonesia, the world’s largest nickel producer, is expected to be around 550,000 tonnes in 2020. Although China produces around a third of the world’s zinc, according to Sanchez, a number of other countries, including Canada, Australia, China, Peru, and the U.S., also produce significant quantities. Allaying possible tensions between the U.S. and China over the bluishwhite metal, he said.

“We expect zinc and nickel prices to rise sharply, followed by more modest increases in nickel and aluminium prices, with lead prices lagging,” he said. In 2021, Sanchez forecasts zinc to trade at US$2,628 per tonne, up 17% from an average of US$2,246 per tonne in 2020, with nickel rising to US$15,557 per tonne, an increase of 14.5% from an average of US$13,582 per tonne.

to US$1,912 per tonne in 2021, up 12.8% from US$1,695 per tonne in 2020, copper to US$6,654 per tonne, an increase of 9.2% from US$6,095 per tonne, and lead to US$1,845 per tonne, up 1.7% from US$1,814 per tonne. Sanchez estimates that zinc prices will rise to US$2,857 per tonne in 2022, up 8.7% from 2021 prices, copper to US$7,070 per tonne, an increase of 6.3%, aluminium to US$2,013 per tonne, a rise of

5.3%, lead to US$1,925 per tonne, an increase of 4.3%, and nickel to US$16,190 per tonne, up 4.1%. “The price projections incorporate the potential for further disruptions from Covid-19,” Sanchez said. “Even though vaccines are being now being rolled out, there is still uncertainty over their efficacy, and we could still see further outbreaks next year or the virus returning in 2022 if the protection provided by the vaccines only last six months or a year.” TNM

INTERVIEW From 10

we always hear is that rare earths are absolutely essential, we can’t live without them or civilization would collapse. That didn’t play out [in 2010]. What we saw back then was a crisis, an engineered rare earth crisis. And what happened to the Chinese industry was not pleasant. Because the prices skyrocketed, for a period of time the Chinese producers were making ridiculous money. But they ended up with demand dropping away and prices collapsing. I don’t think they’re going to make the same mistake they made in 2010, regarding the rare earths themselves. We expect rare earth prices to climb in value, we expect to see a relatively stable market and the only thing that’s going to cause a disruption would be some sort of breakdown in relations between China and the U.S. or the rest of the world. that are overlooked and which we should keep an eye on in 2021? JH: Well, tin’s long been a favourite of mine. You know, we’ve hit peak recycling levels, the secondary supplies of tin. The best supplies of tin are showing signs of depleting, and that’s worrisome. We’ve also gotten pretty close to optimizing the amount of solder that’s used per electrical connection in the electronics industry. And look, we’re in no danger of people buying less electronics. So, the demand for tin continues to rise, while the supply is somewhat constrained. I’ve said for a while that tin is going to be one of the critical materials that we’re going to wake up one day and suddenly realize we’re in trouble. As long as we want to avoid the use of lead in electronics, we don’t have a choice. Tin is the direction we have to go in, so I’m bullish on tin. TNM: What are the most important

factors that will influence the critical materials market in the new year? JH: I would say the tenor that is taken between the new U.S. administration and China. You know, there are a number of really significant flashpoints that the Trump administration put in place. There were movements made months and months ago to limit the ability of companies to sell advanced semiconductors to certain Chinese entities. When you put in place regulations that limit the ability of China to build, for example, a 5G

“The ability of Biden to push these initiatives through will, again, depend on who has control of the U.S. Senate,” Savant said. Turning to PGMs, Savant noted that they are critical to the traditional car industry and hybrid electric vehicles, where platinum and palladium are used in catalytic converters to reduce exhaust emissions. Although the market share of electric passenger vehicles (EVs) is set to rise over the next decade, increasing from a current level of 3% of global new car sales to 10% by 2025 and rising to 28% by 2030, according to the annual Bloomberg New Energy Finance report published in May, conventional cars will still account for most of the market share over the next couple of decades, driving demand for platinum and palladium. Demand for PGMs in China will also rise in 2021, as the country seeks to implement its delayed China 6 standards, he said. Based on European regulations, the standards aim to tighten emissions from new passenger cars and light-duty commercial vehicles. Silver demand is also expected to rise due to China’s increased

However much we want to become independent of a Chinese supply chain for critical materials in the future, we are pretty heavily dependent on that supply chain at present. So, if you choose to pick a fight in a particular area, along the lines of what the Trump administration has done with semiconductors, then you run the risk of the Chinese stepping in and taking some very focused actions, perhaps limiting the exports of antimony to the U.S. Or you run the risk of the Chinese taking a broader approach, which could, for example, be to limit exports of gallium. Both of those materials are vital to certain industries, they are critical materials in their own right. The idea of fighting a trade war is to cause asymmetric damage. And from my point of view, what the United

Increased gold demand is likely to be concentrated around the Chinese Lunar New Year in mid-February next year, he said. Savant expects prices for the four metals to rise next year on an annual average basis, with the highest gains for gold, silver, and platinum, with palladium experiencing moderate increases. He forecasts gold will trade at US$1,897 per oz. in 2021, up 7.3% from an average of US$1,768 per oz. in 2020. Silver will also jump to US$26.50 per oz., an increase of 30.2% from US$20.34 per oz. Likewise, PGMs will be on the rise: platinum to US$1,081 per oz., up 22.1% from US$885 per oz., and palladium to US$2,313 per oz., an increase of 6.8% from an average of US$2,166 per oz. in 2020. “A combination of improving economic conditions and a commitment by various major central banks to keep monetary policy ultra-loose is expected to be very beneficial to all commodity prices,” Savant said.

States has been doing is they’ve been doing high profile things that are frankly going to cause almost as much damage to U.S. and international companies as to China. Whereas the Chinese responses potentially could cause a lot more damage in the U.S. than they do economically in China. I’m hoping cooler heads will prevail and we’re going to start seeing some thought put into the decisions that are made. It would be nice to see this new administration take a more thoughtful tack when it comes to trade. TNM: What do you think those who are looking at the critical materials sector need to know about as 2021 begins?

The sector has matured. The companies — and the people involved — have grown up. It’s not like it used to be a decade ago. And its global importance needs to be recognized. I often say that we went through the bronze age, the iron age, and we’ve gone through the steel age and, arguably, we are probably in what we should term the critical materials age. I mean, you couldn’t really have a modern cell phone without that little bit of lithium in a battery. It’s those little bits of material — critical materials — that make all the difference today.

Lundin Gold goes ahead with $18.6m Fruta del Norte expansion ECUADOR

URANIUM

| Gold-silver mine is largest in the country

Cameco suspends production at Cigar Lake

MINING.com

anada’s Lundin Gold (TSX: LUG) is going ahead with expansion plans for its Fruta del Norte gold-silver mine in Ecuador, the country’s largest, only a year after producing the first doré bar on site. The Vancouver-based miner said the US$18.6 million expansion will take throughput from 3,500 to 4,200 tonnes per day over the life of mine and would be funded by cash flow from operations. Lundin plans to start construction in the first quarter of 2021, ramping production in the third quarter and increasing mill operations in the fourth quarter. Lundin, worth almost US$2.2 billion, worked on developing the asset for almost two years, following a 2016 agreement with Ecuador’s government. That deal allowed it to move ahead with the project, located in the southeastern Amazon province of Zamora Chinchipe. The company acquired Fruta del Norte in 2014 for US$240 million from fellow Canadian miner Kinross Gold, which had to halt operations after being unable to reach an agreement with authorities regarding the terms for developing the asset. The underground gold and silver mine, discovered in 2006, contains six of Lundin’s 29 mining concessions and covers 70,000 hectares of land. Lundin has set its 2021 production goal at between 380,000 and 420,000 oz. of gold at an average head grade of 10.4 grams gold per tonne, a recovery rate of 90% and all-in sustaining costs (AISCs) of

US$770-830 per ounce. The company also increased Fruta del Norte’s reserves by 8% to 5.41 million oz., thanks to changes in the planned mining method. “The increase in the 2020 reserve is primarily due to the conversion of a significant portion of the sections of the ore body originally mined by drift and fill to long-hole stoping, based on the good ground conditions experienced in the mine to date, which resulted in a slight increase in dilution and decrease in average grade,” it said. Based on the new figures, Lundin now expects to produce almost 4.8 million oz. gold at Fruta del Norte over a 14-year mine life. The company still expects to produce 200,000-220,000 gold ounces at the operation this year, despite the impact of Covid-19 restrictions and a recent 15-day blockade following frustration over a bridge collapse caused by one of Lundin’s mining trucks. President and CEO Ron Hochstein said Fruta del Norte has proven to be a low-cost producer, with upside potential in its ore body. “We anticipate adding even more to these estimates upon completion of an underground drilling program which began last month,” Hochstein said. The company is planning to spend US$11 million in 2021 to drill two high priority exploration targets at its Barbasco and Puente-Princesa concessions, about 7 km from the mine.TNM This article first appeared in MINING. com, part of Glacier Resource Innovation Group

ameco (TSX: CCO; NYSE: CCJ) announced December 14 that it will temporarily suspend production at its Cigar Lake uranium mine in northern Saskatchewan due to the increasing risks posed by the Covid-19 pandemic. “The safety of our workers, their families and communities is our top priority,” Tim Gitzel, Cameco’s president and CEO, stated in a news release. “We have had six positive tests at our northern operations in recent weeks, including three at Cigar Lake. While the protocols we have put in place have to date allowed us to effectively manage

these cases, there are broader risks we don’t control.” Cigar Lake was put on care and maintenance during the first wave of the pandemic in March, and restarted operations in September. At the peak of production this fall, there were about 300 workers at the Cigar Lake site. Gitzel said that Cameco plans to increase its purchases of uranium in the market “to secure uranium we need to meet our sales commitments.” “Our deliveries to date have not been materially impacted by Covid-19, nor do we expect there will be a material impact on our remaining 2020 deliveries,” he added. Cameco withdrew its production guidance for this year on April 13.

Cigar Lake was previously expected to generate nine million lb. of U3O8 for the company in 2020. By Sept. 30, Cigar Lake had produced 2.3 million pounds of uranium concentrates. While Cigar Lake is on care and maintenance, Cameco expects to incur costs of between US$8 million and US$10 million per month, which will be expensed directly to cost of sales. The Cigar Lake operation is owned by Cameco (50.025%), Orano Canada Inc. (37.1%), Idemitsu Canada Resources Ltd. (7.875%) and TEPCO Resources Inc. (5.0%). TNM

ing industry’s challenges in 2021? MD: The main thing that we’re weighing here is the impact of Covid-19. On the one hand, we’ve had positive news on vaccine development and that appears to be happening earlier than we anticipated. That’s positive, in terms of getting back to some form of normalization earlier, and re-opening of the economy earlier. But in the more immediate near term, we’re dealing with significant increases in infection rates across most of the country. So ultimately, broadly, that’s what will impact the course of the Canadian economy: the course of the virus’ evolution and consumers’ and businesses’ response to it. TNM: Overall, what are the darkest

ceanaGold (TSX: OGC; ASX: OGC) has received permits for three deposits at its Macraes gold mine, about 60 km north of Dunedin in the South Island of New Zealand, that will allow it to extend the life of the mine from 2021 to 2028. The permits will enable the development of the new Golden Point Underground Mine (GPUG), extend the Deepdell North Stage III open-pit deposit, and expand mineralisation at Frasers West open-pit. “The new GPUG will initially supplement and then eventually replace the existing underground operation at Frasers,” Sam Pazuki, the company’s vice president of strategy and corporate development, said in an interview. “We expect the first production at GPUG to start around this time next year.” The Frasers underground mine went into production in 2008 and originally had a mine life of five years but still has another two to three years of mine life to go. Services and earthworks around the GPUG portal are underway, and the first cut of the portal is expected before the end of the year, Pazuki said. Pre-stripping of the Deepdell open-pit is underway, as is the Fraser

from over 50% at the start of the century to less than a quarter in recent years. And the country continues to attract significant investment. New mines under construction include Anglo American’s (LSE: AAL) US$5.3 billion Quellaveco copper project, and the US$900 million Mina Justa, owned by tin miner Minsur and Chilean industrial group Empresas Copec. The turmoil comes amid a coronavirus outbreak which has so far claimed the lives of 35,000 Peruvians, the second highest per capita death toll in the world. Despite a nationwide lockdown imposed from mid-March, which even closed the giant copper mines for several weeks, the disease has spread rapaciously as millions of informal workers were forced onto the streets or fled to rural areas, taking the virus with them. As a result, the country is facing one of the worst economic contractions in the region as well as

West pit expansion, with mining of both expected to start in the next couple of months, he noted. The projects are collectively forecast to produce 1.1 million oz. of gold over the mine’s eight-year life. The mine is forecast to produce an average 150,000-170,000 oz. of gold per year at all-in sustaining costs of about US$1,000 per ounce, with 75% of the production from the openpit mines and about 25% from the underground mine.

A mineral resource estimate for Macraes in June 2020 outlined measured and indicated resources of 122 million tonnes grading 0.91 gram gold per tonne for 3.6 million oz. contained gold. Inferred resources add 4.2 million tonnes grading 0.74 gram gold for 1 million oz. of gold. “Because Macraes is not blessed with high-grades, we have to be as efficient as possible when mining,” Pazuki said. “Currently, we are mining ore at around US$1.30

the near-collapse of its ramshackle healthcare sector. The economy is expected to bounce back in 2021, in part driven by a 15% jump in copper production to 2.4 million tonnes following this year’s shutdowns. Despite the hardships suffered by millions of Peruvians over the last ten months, a radical change of course is not expected at next April’s presidential vote. “We don’t see demands for significant changes to the economic structures,” notes Pablo de la Flor, executive director of the national mining and energy association SNMPE. Memories of economic chaos in the 1980s and the arrival of more than 800,000 Venezuelans fleeing a similar mess at home have largely immunized Peruvian voters from the populist strains which are once again sweeping Latin America, says Nicolas Urrutia, a senior analyst at ControlRisks. “Even in the context of Covid-19, voters are expected to cast their votes for candidates who promote fairly

orthodox economic policies,” he told The Northern Miner. However, many are concerned by the longer-term impacts of Peru’s political gridlock. Whoever wins next year’s elections (and there is no clear favorite yet) is likely to face a fragmented congress. Without a majority, the incoming president will have to seek ad-hoc coalitions to pass any legislation or face a return to the deadlock of recent years. The fear is that the sclerosis hardens and delays decisions key to Peru’s future development, including the mining sector. “This has definitely had an impact on the rate of economic growth,” noted de la Flor. For example, work on a US$7.3 billion pipeline to bring natural gas to southern Peru has been paralyzed for the last four years amid a corruption scandal. Vizcarra had hoped to award the project to a new consortium before a new government is elected but that now looks unlikely. Several mining companies are

per tonne, but previously it’s been as low as US$1 per tonne, making it one of the world’s lowest-cost gold mines.” What also sets OceanaGold apart from other “non-major” gold companies, he said, is the company’s use of an in-house autoclave at the mine’s processing plant, which has been in operation since 1999, allowing it to process ore at about US$7 per tonne. This figure, he noted, is nearly half the cost of comparable

looking forward to plans that would link southern Peru’s isolated Andahuaylas-Yauri copper belt to the port of San Juan de Marcona via a new 920-kilometer railroad. Construction is due to begin in 2023. The US$9.2 billion project would immediately benefit MMG’s Las Bambas operation, which has faced protests from local people against heavy trucks laden with concentrates from the mine streaming through their communities. But other copper projects lie in its catchment area including First Quantum Minerals’ (TSX: FM) Haquira and Southern Copper’s (NYSE: SCCO) US$1.8 billion Las Chancas. Mining executives are worried that with officials at all levels wary of corruption accusations, key decisions like these will be delayed, setting back the country’s development. “It’s going to be a road or airport that has not been built or a port has not been privatized because leaders were afraid,” says Panoro’s Shaheen. “And delayed work to upgrade infrastructure will have a trickledown effect on our projects.” TNM

processing plants. In a research note, BMO Capital Market’s precious metals analyst, Brian Quast, forecast a 10-year mine life for Macraes with the open-pit resources becoming depleted in 2028 and underground resources becoming depleted in 2030. The analyst estimated a net present value of US$743 million, at a 5% discount rate, for the mine. In other news, the company has been notified that the Philippine government is moving forward to finalize the renewal of an agreement governing the company’s Didipio gold-copper underground mine in the north of Luzon Island, 270 km northeast of Manila. The company announced in a press release on Dec. 7 that President Rodrigo Duterte had instructed the Philippines’ Department of Environment and Natural Resources to work with OceanaGold and the Department of Finance on a new Financial for Technical Assistance Agreement (FTAA). OceanaGold kicked off the renewal of the 25-year permit for the mine in 2018. After it expired in June 2019, the company kept Didipio operating under a temporary licence, but a blockade backed by the local government forced the mining company to suspend operations a few weeks later. The FTAA’s renewal has been slowed down by the Covid-19 pandemic, claims that Didipio had been operating outside the Indigenous Peoples’ Rights Act, and the Bugkalot tribe had been seeking to expand its domain over parts of the FTAA area. The company was recently granted a “certification of non-overlap,” which states the FTAA area is outside the ancestral domain of local indigenous communities. It plans to restart the operation as soon as it gets the go-ahead. Farooq Hamed of Raymond James, described the news as “a clear positive” and said he believes “positive engagement and eventual sign-off of the FTAA renewal by the Office of the President is the final step in allowing Didipio to re-start given the renewal was previously endorsed by all other relevant government ministries including the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), Mining and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) and the Department of Finance (DofF).” Hamed also pointed to the support for Didipio from local communities. “OceanaGold was recently granted a Certificate of Non-Overlap which See NEW ZEALAND / 16

states that the FTAA area is outside the ancestral domain of the Indigenous Cultural Communities,” Hamed commented in his research note to clients. “The company has strong endorsement of the residents in the local communities around the Didipio mine including the Indigenous Cultural Communities and Indigenous Peoples.” In a separate research note, BMO’s Quast noted that Didipio makes up 12% of the company’s operational net present value and “generates significant free cash flow for the company when in operation.” The analyst also pointed out that news of the potential restart will likely assist OceanaGold in its discussions with lenders. “The company has overall $200 million credit facilities due December 31, 2021,” he wrote. “The facilities are with a multi-national group of banks. A restart of Didipio prior to the maturity of these debt facilities should be useful in any refinancing discussions.” Quast currently models a restart in mid-2022. “The company is not yet giving any timelines on a restart, and given the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and the amount of bureaucracy still required, we are not yet prepared to model an earlier restart of Didipio.” OceanaGold is also moving forward with its environmental management strategy, releasing a position statement on climate change in mid-November, which included an emissions reduction goal to achieve net-zero emissions from its operations in 2050. “We’ve been mining in New Zealand for over 30 years, and we’re very proud of our track record on environmental and social issues in a country that prides itself on being one of the greenest in the world,” Pazuki said. “We have a demonstrably strong ESG [environmental, social,

governance] performance and are always looking for new opportunities to improve. The commitment to carbon-neutrality by 2050 is a key part of our commitment to minimizing our environmental impact.” Over the past several years ESG has become increasingly important to investors in the mining industry, Pazuki said. As a result, the company is continually seeking to better align its approach with the needs of its investors and stakeholders, he noted. The goal of OceanaGold’s environmental management strategy, is to mitigate the risks associated with climate change, establish measures and targets to improve the efficiency

of its energy use, and to minimize its greenhouse gas (GHG) emission ntensity, he said. To support this goal, the company plans to establish milestone inten-

sity targets (GHG emissions per oz. of gold produced) by 2022. The targets, he said, would be achieved by addressing four key strategic areas: improved energy efficiency

conference with an executive from a private equity firm. When asked about ESG at that time, the executive said all they cared about was that a company wasn’t in the newspapers and had a sustainability report of some sort. “Today it’s completely different,” Pearce explained. “There has been a complete shift in what the money is looking for as investor awareness increases. They want to see the company’s performance on environmental and social metrics, how a company’s social and environmental performance is tied to executive remuneration; and they want to see key performance indicators.” According to the ERM survey, as of March, the amount of assets under management among ESG funds totaled more than US$1 trillion – marking a 35% increase over the preceding three year period – and European funds make up about 75% of these assets under management. In addition, 85% of ESG equity indices outperformed non-ESG peers in the first quarter of 2020, and 80% of fixed income assets did the same in the second quarter of the year. The survey also found that 86% of those polled expect the pipeline of ESG investment opportunities to increase over the next three to five years and 21% said there will be significantly more. ERM quoted one respondent, a managing director of an investment team at a European company, as saying: “For two businesses with [the] same profitability, we would be willing to pay a premium on the one that is a sustainability leader in its segment ... because when we sell it in four to six years, we will get an even higher premium if we can maintain and grow this position.”

“Many firms are now recognizing the lucrative opportunities behind ESG themes but the leaders will be those that have a systematic process to identify these prospects and take decisive measures to create competitive advantage,” according to the report. ERM also noted an emerging link between executive compensation and ESG, with 36% of the respondents saying they would like to see management incentives aligned with ESG metrics. Drilling down into the most important ESG themes, ERM said 55% of those surveyed identified climate change impacts, societal wellbeing, water/wastewater and the

circular economy as the areas that present the biggest opportunities between now and 2025. As for regions where ESG has emerged as a significant theme, Europe leads the pack, followed by Asia-Pacific and North America. ERM pointed out that those surveyed said Europe offered the greatest opportunity for ESG-related investment due to its goal of becoming the world’s first climate-neutral region by 2050 and its intention to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 55% before 2030. “Five or six years ago a number of mining executives didn’t embrace climate change as a business challenge and now it’s really hard to find

anybody who would talk about it not being real,” Pearce said. “It presents both a threat and an opportunity to the mining sector.” Pearce said ERM is seeing an increasing number of miners announce net zero targets and looking at options to reduce their direct and indirect, or value chain, carbon emissions. This is being driven by a combination of regulation around climate change disclosure, such as the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosure (TCFD), and mounting pressure from investors on ESG performance, she said. “It’s a complex challenge, especially when you consider the important role that mining and metals companies play

and energy reduction; decarbonisation of electrical energy supply; decarbonisation of the fuel used for mobile equipment fuel; and carbon sequestration. The company plans to establish a climate change Technical Coordinating Committee to identify opportunities to reduce its GHG emission intensity and identify risks, opportunities, priorities, and costs across its operations. It will also undertake climate change management and reporting to meet the requirements of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Created in 2017, the TCFD comprises 31 members across the G20 group of countries representing both preparers and users of financial data and aims to improve and increase climate-related financial information reporting. TNM

in terms of providing critical metals for the transition to a low carbon economy. The de-carbonization challenge requires collective action from a broad range of stakeholders — miners, downstream metals producers, governments, financial institutions, low-carbon technology providers etc. More broadly, the transition to a low carbon economy is about societal contribution to climate change … everyone has a role to play.” Pearce also pointed to growing shareholder activism and the fallout unfortunate decisions can have, such as Rio Tinto’s move earlier this year to destroy 46,000 year-old-rock shelters in Australia. “Things have changed, the world has changed,” she said. “You have the rise in awareness of systemic racism and the need for reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, to name two. The landscape has fundamentally changed in the past few years.” Pearce noted that if companies have agreements with regulators or local communities from five or six years ago, the onus is still on the company to challenge itself and make sure these past agreements, even if in writing, align with today’s higher standards. “Broader societal values have shifted so much that simply having an agreement or even permits from five years ago doesn’t mean you have the right to do what you thought you could do,” she said. “It’s not that the agreement itself is null and void, just that the conditions between when it was signed and actually delivered have dramatically changed. Companies need to ask themselves: ‘Is what we did five years ago still valid today? ... They need to continually check in on their social license to operate, and make sure it’s up-to-date.” TNM

M A R K E T N EWS TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE / DECEMBER 7 – 11 TheS&P/TSX Composite Index rose 0.16% to 17,548.92 during the Dec. 7-11 trading week. TheS&P/TSX Global Mining Index fell 0.08% to 99.28, and the S&P/TSX Global Base Metals Index dropped 1.80% to 133.42. Spot gold fell US$24.50 per oz. (1.31%) to US$1,839.50 per oz., and the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index declined by 0.55% to 310.88. Moneta Porcupine Mines jumped 13¢ to 26¢ per share. The company released an updated mineral resource estimate for its 100%-owned Golden Highway project in Ontario. The update follows the latest drill program completed during the first half of 2020, which increased its indicated resource base by 217% to 2.14 million oz. gold and inferred resources by 141% to 3.34 million ounces, added a maiden resource at Westaway and open pit resources at Windjammer South and 55. (Theresource included underground and open-pit resources and remains open.) Th majority of the new resources are attributed to the new Westaway high-grade discovery and the definition of near surface gold mineralization in open pits. Moneta said it will test the extensions of the current gold deposits in the winter 2020-2021 drill program. Shares of Fission Uranium rose 9¢ to 37¢

per share. The company announced plans to raise $6 million in a bought deal financing Red Cloud Securities and a syndicate of underwriters will purchase for resale 14.63 million flow-through units at 41¢ per unit. Each unit consists of one common share of Fission and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. (Each warrant can be exercised at a price of 50¢ within 24 months of the closing date.) Fission plans to use the proceeds of the public offering for exploration purposes. Thecompany is advancing its Patterson Lake South property in the Athabasca Basin, which hosts the Triple R uranium deposit. Kirkland Lake Gold increased by 77¢ to

$52.42 per share. The company announced its full-year guidance for 2021 of between 1.3 million and 1.4 million oz. gold. Thecompany said the guidance is driven by strong growth at its Detour Lake mine in Ontario. Theguidance is almost identical to the company’s 2020 production target of 1.35-1.4 million oz., although 2021 guidance will not include the Holt Complex, which is now on care

and maintenance, the company said. All-in sustaining costs per oz. gold sold in 2021 are expected to remain unchanged from 2020 levels of between US$790 and US$810 per ounce. The miner said that it hopes to grow annual production to 1.41-1.55 million oz. of gold in 2023 and will work towards completing its $50 million drill program at Detour Lake and release a new mine plan in 2022.

TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE / DECEMBER 7 – 11 The S&P/TSX Venture Composite Index rose 1.46% (11.19 points) to finish the Dec. 7-11 trading week at 780.30. Spot gold dropped US$24.50 per oz. (1.31%), to US$1,839.50 per ounce. Whitehorse Gold surged $1.50 to $3.28 per share on a strong intercept from its 2020 drill program at its wholly owned Skukum gold project in the Yukon. Drillhole SC20-001 returned 8.07 metres (true width) grading 6.54 grams gold per tonne and 186.83 grams silver per tonne starting from 434.08 metres downhole, including 1.2 metres of 21.4 grams gold and 563 grams silver. Thehole was drilled into the Rainbow Zone of the project’s Skukum Creek deposit. Results from three other holes are pending. The170 sq. km project is about 55 km south of Whitehorse and has year-round access. Theproject hosts three deposits with resource estimates and underground development – the Skukum Creek deposit, Goddell deposit and the past-producing Mt. Skukum gold mine) along with multiple mineralized showings. Skukum Creek is the largest of the three deposits and contains 1 million indicated tonnes grading 5.85 grams gold and 166.4 grams silver and 537,000 inferred tonnes grading 4.99 grams gold and 108.3 grams silver. Chesapeake Gold climbed $1.19 to $5.52 per share. The company announced the acquisi-

tion of privately held Alderley Gold Corp., a mining technology company, and said the purchase gives it “access to a proven and innovative precious metals processing technology together with certain asset rights and proprietary databases, creating the path towards a new growth oriented and innovative gold and silver producer.” Chesapeake said it will now focus on advancing its Metates project towards production using Alderley’s suphide leaching technology. According to Chespeake, the technology oxidizes sulphide and transition ore “using certain chemistry to manage pH and alkalinity thereby increasing recovery and reducing potential to turn acidic during cyanide leaching.” Metates, in Mexico’s Durango state, is the company’s flagship asset.

U.S. MARKETS / DECEMBER 7 – 11 The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.57% to finish the trading week at 30,046.37 and the S&P 500 declined by 0.96% to 3,663.46. Spot gold dropped US$24.50 per oz. to US$1,839.50 per oz. Seabridge Gold fell by US61¢ to US$17.37 per share. Seabridge announced it had raised US$115.7 million, more than enough to fund the acquisition of Pretium Resources’ Snowfiel property in British Columbia. “Proceeds from the financing will pay the entire US$100 million upfront cash payment payable in respect of the acquisition of the Snowfield property, the expenses related to the acquisition, with the remainder used for general working capital,” the Toronto-based miner said on Dec. 9. Snowfield, immediately adjacent to its 100%-owned KSM gold-copper project, will open up new development opportunities for its flagship asset, Seabridge said. Snowfield has measured and indicated resources of 25.92 million oz. gold and a further 9.03 million oz. gold in the inferred category, in addition to substantial copper resources. Shares of Newmont dropped US57¢ to US$58.87 per share. The company plans to extend the life of its Peñasquito gold-silver

mine in Mexico’s Zacatecas state beyond 2040 through exploration. The company said it will invest US$10 million in 2021 to develop a pipeline of new exploration targets at the mine, and drilling is also expected to help convert resources within existing pit shells to reserves, Newmont said. Peñasquito is forecast to produce 660,000 ounces of gold in 2021, up from 510,000 ounces expected for 2020, and reflects the impact of disruptions due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Last year’s output from the mine was also impacted by two blockades by truckers and local residents.

Most recently, Ramos served for ten years as CEO of the Absa Group, one of Africa’s largest banks, before retiring from the post in February 2019. Since Pityana became chairman in 2014, AngloGold’s debt has declined by more than 70%, its portfolio simplified through the sale of shorter-life assets, and its Obuasi gold mine in Ghana redeveloped into a modern, long-life operation, the company said.
