The gold rush for palladium is on

Gold bugs bet on palladium

Palladium’s price growth has been double the growth of the price of gold
That’s because demand continues to grow with global supply unable to keep up
This decade, production of palladium has been less than demand for eight consecutive years

We have all heard of the spectacular rise in the price of gold and have been astounded as it blasted through $2,000, setting all-time highs. But what other precious metal has left gold in its (gold) dust?

Hint – it’s one of the PGMs (that’s Platinum-Group Metals) and no, it’s not platinum. PGMs are named because of their affiliation to platinum, but except for (possibly) iridium, most investors have never really heard of them. Ruthenium? Rhodium? Osmium? Also PGMs.

OK, just give up – the mystery metal is palladium (symbol Pd, atomic number 46). And this is going to surprise you!

Palladium is primarily mined in Russia and South Africa, although it can always be found wherever other PGMs are mined, including Montana and Ontario, and may also be affiliated with nickel mining. It is a soft, slivery-white metal. It can be rolled out as thin as 1/250,000 of an inch and is used in electronics, dentistry and jewelry, and transportation.

Palladium’s price growth has been double the growth of the price of gold – 2 year chart

You can see it – palladium’s price growth has been double the growth of the price of gold. That’s because demand continues to grow with global supply unable to keep up. This decade, production of palladium has been less than demand for eight consecutive years.

Palladium is primarily a transportation metal, but not how you think. People think exotic or precious metals and they automatically think electric vehicles (EVs). Palladium is already in your car or SUV, but not for electronics. It’s in your catalytic converter.

It’s in your catalytic converter. The automotive sector currently consumes as much as 80% of global production of palladium, of which approximately 70+% comes from Russia and South Africa. As the world continues to demand cleaner air, regulations on exhaust emissions are tightening and auto manufacturers are going to have to use more of the metal.

Even with increasing EV sales, the demand for palladium is not expected to decrease. The design of current catalytic converters cannot simply replace palladium with more readily available platinum as they would have to be redesigned to accommodate the different chemistry of platinum. Diesel-powered vehicles can use platinum in the catalytic converters, but gasoline powered vehicles are currently restricted to palladium. Research indicates that a number of technological advances are required before platinum can replace palladium in the exhaust system. The growing market for hybrid cars is going to see global demand for palladium continue to outstrip supply. In addition, speculators and ETFs are also playing in the space, causing price volatility and supporting the metal’s price trending higher.

So, the bull market for palladium is expected to continue. Mineral exploration companies targeting PGMs will be able to capitalize on the current market excitement, making this a great time to invest in well managed, properly capitalized companies. And especially given the predominance of Russia (not particularly friendly to the western world) and South Africa, any PGM exploration company in friendly and PGM-rich countries is going to have a lot of market attention.

Elon Musk’s Tesla Dominates US EV Sales and These Are The Metals He Needs More of SPONSOR: Tartisan Nickel $TN.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 10:57 AM on Monday, August 24th, 2020

SPONSOR: Tartisan Nickel (TN:CSE) Kenbridge Property has a measured and indicated resource of 7.14 million tonnes at 0.62% nickel, 0.33% copper. Tartisan also has interests in Peru, including a 20 percent equity stake in Eloro Resources and 2 percent NSR in their La Victoria property. Click her for more information

Tesla is hands down the biggest seller of electric vehicles (EVs) in the world’s largest economy, accounting for 81 per cent of the 87,398 EVs sold in the US in the first quarter.The Model 3 was the most popular, racking up sales of 38,314 for the three-month period.Second and third in the EV sales race were Tesla’s Model Y and Model X, with sales of 18,861 and 9,500 respectively, according to data from UK investor website Buy Shares.

Tesla founder Elon Musk has famously called on nickel miners to produce more to meet growing demand for the battery metal.

But just which other metals is the billionaire tech icon going to need more of?

EVs drive consumption of copper, cobalt and nickel

The Model 3 is Tesla’s most affordable EV at a retail price of $73,900 and requires 50kg of nickel, 4.5kg of cobalt, and approximately 130lbs of copper, according to reports.

Model 3 sales in Q1 for the US market would have accounted for 172 tonnes of cobalt, 2,260 tonnes of copper, and 1,915 tonnes of nickel.

Tesla’s total EV sales in the three-month period would require 321 tonnes of cobalt, 4,208 tonnes of copper, and 3,568 tonnes of nickel.

Around 40 ASX companies are involved in the cobalt space, such as Australian Mines (ASX:AUZ), Clean TeQ (ASX:CLQ) and New World Cobalt (ASX:NWC).

Companies with exposure to copper include Encounter Resources (ASX:ENR), which has several new discoveries in the Northern Territory, Castillo Copper (ASX:CCZ) and Red River Resources (ASX:RVR).

There are also a number of nickel producers in Australia that are well positioned to benefit from rising sales of EVs.

They include DevEx Resources (ASX:DEV), Western Areas (ASX:WSA), and Panoramic Resources (ASX:PAN).

Tesla recovers battery metals in recycling

With the push for a “circular economy” to reduce the waste going to landfill and a shortage of supply of critical minerals, major car and battery makers are turning to recycled material.

Tesla recycled 1,000 short tons of nickel, 320 tons of copper, and 110 tons of cobalt in 2019, according to Tesla’s impact report.

“None of our scrapped lithium-ion batteries go to landfilling, and 100 per cent are recycled,” Tesla said.

Tesla is building a battery recycling system at its Gigafactory in Nevada that will process end-of-life batteries.

“Through this system, the recovery of critical minerals will be maximised along with the recovery of all metals used in Tesla battery cells, such as copper, aluminium and steel,” the company said.

ASX-listed Lithium Australia (ASX:LIT) and EcoGraf (ASX:EGR) are developing tech in Australia to recover battery metals from dead batteries.

Lithium Australia recently successfully converted mine waste and spent lithium-ion batteries into high-performance lithium-ion battery cathodes.

EcoGraf, meanwhile, recovered graphite from a range of ‘black mass’ material from recycled batteries.

Black mass is the residual graphite material remaining after hydrometallurgical processes have recovered the high-value cathode metals from end-of-life lithium-ion batteries and is typically relegated to landfill.

betterU $BTRU.ca Provides Business Update $ARCL $CPLA $BPI $FC.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:29 AM on Friday, August 21st, 2020

Launch of betterU’s Europe SaaS B2B platform
Relaunch of India SaaS platform as a result of 1,272% increase in transactions for 2020
Extraordinary $60,000+ profit from sale of certain claim rights

OTTAWA, ON / August 21, 2020 / betterU Education Corp. (TSXV:BTRU)(FRA:5OGA) (the “Company” or “betterU”) is pleased to provide the following update on its business.

2020 year-to-date the Company has seen a substantial increase in interest from companies and governments from North America, Europe, Africa as well as India. Over the last couple months, betterU has completed multiple proposals that if completed would result in the company’s profitability within 2020.

To effectively access some of the global opportunities, betterU has adapted its platform to support global markets and is now in the process of launching its European SaaS platform. The platform is expected to launch before the end of August 2020. As part of betterU’s growth strategy in Europe, the Company is also in the process of completing the set-up of its operating entity, located in Dublin (Ireland), that will support several initiatives including an opportunity for non-dilutive investment as well as several possible strategic partnerships.

betterU had also decided to advance its India marketplace after observing a significant 1,272% increase in registrations and transactions over the same period last year. Nearly 55,000 new users and 12,000 new transactions enrolled in both free and paid courses. While the revenues were only a few thousand dollars, the length of time users have been spending on the marketplace has validated the growing level of interest. To capitalized on this growth trend, the Company has recently launched their new retooled India platform that aligns with their new SaaS model and includes a reduction of content offered, focused exclusively on skills development.

The several thousand courses and assessments being provided in India will now be hosted exclusively by betterU and to drive more awareness, the company is going to launch a marketing campaign promoting their new platform targeting its over 129,000 Facebook followers from India. The Company has also simplified the user experience by centralizing the back-end infrastructure for content integration, user management and now any transactions or updates required to be made, would be completed by betterU Canada and instantly be applied to all global platforms. This will enable seamless skills development solutions for millions of learners globally and support the scalability the Company has been working to establish.

betterU’s focus on its current clients has been to ensure the effective development of the platform, the ability to scale through automation and has renegotiated many content partner agreements for inclusion in the Company’s new SaaS model. In addition, betterU has developed a translation platform to support content delivery in localized languages for global employees and has launched its customized development services.

betterU is planning to support upwards of over 2,000 client employees within Ready-To-Go in the coming months and to support these growing opportunities, the Company has been planning the addition of a national sales team focused on North America. The Company is expecting to roll out sales team by the end of August 2020.

On July 20th, 2020, betterU received a grant from Industrial Research Assistance Program in the amount of $32,524. Funds have been allocated to support Canadian employees. On July 31, 2020, betterU secured more than $62,000 in extraordinary profit through the sale of certain claim rights the Company inherited from a predecessor entity, which is unrelated to the business activities of betterU.

“2020 has turned out to be a promising year so far with the growth of excitement from our current clients as we advance our core products and the multitude of opportunities that continue to presence themselves. Our team has and continues to work exceptionally hard to advance corporate and government opportunities. The world has been forced to change due to COVID-19 and with remote learning, betterU will continue to advance our solutions to help support as many governments, companies, employees and students get access to quality, affordable, skills development programs. More updates will follow shortly”, said Brad Loiselle, CEO of betterU.

Tartisan $TN.ca Portfolio Update – Eloro Resources Interview: Drilling in Bolivia $TN.ca $ROX.ca $FF.ca $EDG.ca $AGL.ca $ANZ.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 10:00 AM on Wednesday, August 19th, 2020

SPONSOR: Tartisan Nickel (TN:CSE) Kenbridge Property has a measured and indicated resource of 7.14 million tonnes at 0.62% nickel, 0.33% copper. Tartisan also has interests in Peru, including an equity stake in Eloro Resources and 2 percent NSR in their La Victoria property. Click her for more information

Interview with Thomas Larsen, CEO of Eloro Resources (TSX-V: ELO)

Tartisan owns 4 million share of Eloro

ISKA ISKA, in Bolivia, is 99%-owned by Eloro and has never been drilled

Eloro Resources is a mineral exploration company with assets in Bolivia, Peru and Canada. ISKA ISKA, in Bolivia, is 99%-owned by Eloro and has never been drilled. It is the core focus for the company and is a gold, silver, zinc and lead prospect in the South Mineral Belt. Encouragingly, it is aligned with Cerro Rico along the same corridor structure. La Victoria, a Peruvian gold-silver project, is 82% owned by Eloro. It is in Peru’s North-Central Mineral Belt and is situated in close proximity to gold and silver majors like Pan American Silver and Barrick Gold. La Victoria is being farmed into by an Australian mining company and a 2,000m diamond drilling program is planned with the aim of confirming high-value, high-grade gold-silver veins. Dr. Quinton Hennigh of Novo Resources recently helped the company raise capital to finance this. In terms of an exit, Larsen is pragmatic; he has a track record of taking projects through to a PFS, and he doesn’t want to kid anyone into thinking he and his team are necessarily mine builders. What did you make of Thomas Larsen and the gold, silver, zinc and lead story that is Eloro Resources

Nickel hits highest in nearly 9 months on Philippine supply concerns

Nickel prices surged to their highest in nearly nine months on Monday on concern over supply from the Philippines, the leading exporter of the stainless steel raw material
Copper and most other industrial metals also pushed higher after the central bank of top commodities consumer China injected fresh funds into the financial system

(Updates with official prices) By Eric Onstad LONDON, Aug 17 (Reuters) – Nickel prices surged to their highest in nearly nine months on Monday on concern over supply from the Philippines, the leading exporter of the stainless steel raw material. Copper and most other industrial metals also pushed higher after the central bank of top commodities consumer China injected fresh funds into the financial system. “This remains a liquidity-driven market. Most investors are still expecting the Chinese economy to perform well in the future, so they see good reason to stick to the bullish side of the market,” said Gianclaudio Torlizzi, a partner at Milan consultancy T-Commodity. Three-month nickel on the London Metal Exchange (LME) climbed 1.6% to $14,602 a tonne in official trading after hitting $14,665, its strongest since Nov. 25. Nickel ore output from the Philippines, the world’s biggest exporter of the material, dropped 28% year on year to 102,310 tonnes by metal content over January-June, data showed.
* Also supporting nickel were strong ShFE stainless steel futures , which climbed as much as 4.2% to 14,775 yuan a tonne. Most nickel is used as an alloy to make stainless steel.
* Nickel ore prices at Philippine ports were hovering at their highest in eight and a half months at $10.25 a tonne, data from metals prices provider SMM showed.
* LME copper advanced 1% to $6,428 a tonne, though T-Commodity’s Torlizzi was wary of the strong recent gains that have lifted the price by 47% since March and prompted him to take a short position. “We think the risk of being long here is high and is very vulnerable to disappointment.”
* LME copper stocks sank to their lowest levels in more than 12 years to 110,000 tonnes.

* LME zinc jumped 2.4% in official activity to its highest in nearly seven months at $2,423.50 a tonne as aluminium rose 0.6% to $1,757. Lead gained 1.2% to $1,973.50, its strongest since Jan. 23, but tin shed 1% to $17,426.

When we run the numbers, we can see upon execution this service adding an additional 10% to our forecasted revenue targets,” adds Blink.

“This will facilitate the larger strategy of the Daly facility becoming a central distribution point for Lyfted Branded products and a wholesale processing center,” said Alan Applonie, company General Manager. “Converging marketing and buying interests into a single Northern California location gives state-wide buyers a broader range of products to purchase,” he adds.

The Processor License is an additional license type not included in the original statute specifically added for processors. As this is a new business segment whilst being built out, the Company has submitted an application for a Processor License and anticipates approximately a 90-day timeline to receive it.

The Daly building’s phase one deployment plan will also accommodate perpetual storage of at least 20,000 lbs. of cannabis flower in a climate-controlled atmosphere that will serve business-to-business cannabis market demand throughout California.
