Climate targets have been set, commodity prices have soared, and supply chains are struggling. This has been exacerbated by the Ukraine war and the recent Chinese lockdowns. Supply security and prices are currently moving the world. So-called critical metals are important for electrification and a more climate-friendly way of life. The U.S. and also Canada have created their own lists of critical metals. Battery and platinum group metals feature heavily on both lists. Vital catalyst metals include platinum and palladium, for example. In addition to platinum and palladium, PGMs generally include ruthenium, rhodium, osmium, and iridium. These metals are preferably used in catalysts. Platinum and other PGMs are also required for hydrogen fuel cells and the production of green hydrogen.

After recently reaching new all-time highs, palladium prices remain strong. Supply and demand fundamentals for platinum also appear optimistic for good price support going forward. Platinum group metals are produced in North America, but also in South Africa, Russia and Zimbabwe.

In the Stillwater District in Montana and in South Africa, Sibanye-Stillwater – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eq9yX508m9s – also operates in Zimbabwe. The company is one of the major producers of gold, platinum and palladium.

Not only platinum and palladium, but also another white metal, namely silver is strongly involved in climate change, especially in photovoltaic technology. Silver companies, such as Kuya Silver – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8HSFGdXx0g – with the Bethania property, should therefore have sufficient customers for their silver. Bethania is a formerly producing mine in Peru. Gold, zinc, lead and copper are also found in Kuya Silver’s project.
