Tin may not be one of the most popular commodities among investors, but its growing demand makes it worthy of attention. In 2023, according to Mordor Intelligence, the tin market amounted to 418,000 tons. For 2029, it is estimated at 475,000 tons. Tin is an important material for soldering, alloys, compounds and chemicals. The end consumer industry includes the automotive sector, the electronics sector and the packaging industry. Overall, around 50 to 70 percent of the tin produced globally is used in the electronics and electrical industry (consumer electronics, cell phones, computers, tablets, etc.). The demand for smartphones, for example, is increasing.

Another important sector is the automotive industry, with China being the largest automotive market. China is one of the largest tin producers and consumers in the world. The demand for renewable energies and electric vehicles is growing and with it the demand for tin, because more semiconductors and therefore more tin is needed. Not much seems to be happening on the supply side, especially in comparison with "transition metals" such as nickel or lithium. This is because large corporations are probably spending more on the latter.

Tin One Resources – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/tinone-resources-inc/ -, with its tin/tungsten and lithium projects in Tasmania and New South Wales, Australia, is a popular choice.

There is widespread agreement that the demand for lithium-ion batteries, and therefore also for lithium, will continue to rise. Storage capacities using lithium-ion batteries must be expanded and the electrification of the automotive world is growing. Global demand for lithium-ion batteries from electric cars rose from 103 gigawatt hours in 2019 to 395 in 2023. Demand from electric vehicles alone is forecast to reach 2,028 gigawatt hours in 2030.

Century Lithium – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/century-lithium-corp/ – in Nevada, for example, owns the sought-after lithium in its Clayton Valley lithium project, for which a positive feasibility study has already been completed.
