Green Rush

Gold is well supported with a number of factors supporting the metal, said Joe Cavatoni, senior market strategist for the Americas, World Gold Council.
Last week Cavatoni recorded an episode of Green Rush with Matt Watson, founder of Precious Metals Commodity Management.
Geopolitical concerns and strong central bank buying are some of the factors supporting gold.
"You've got all the key elements of what's making up a really, really amazing picture for the gold market," said Cavatoni. "Central bank buying is pretty amazing, and it's pretty fundamental."
Jewelry demand is currently under pressure due to high prices. The technology sector's demand is growing but still relatively small. Cavatoni said the WGC doesn't forecast gold prices, but he is seeing a lot of market expectations for $2,700 to $3,000 gold.
"We see a very strong case to support those estimates in terms of the overall trajectory of the gold market."

Securing concentrate offtake agreements is the next major step for Platinum Group Metals Ltd., said Frank Hallam, the company's director, president, and CEO.
Last week, Hallam recorded an episode of Green Rush with Matt Watson, founder of Precious Metals Commodity Management.
Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (TSX: PTM) is the majority owner and operator of the Waterberg PGM Project in South Africa. The company is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia. An updated feasibility study on the project was published in September 2024. Discovered in 2011, approximately $89 million has been invested in the project.
A critical next step for the project is securing concentrate offtake agreements, either within South Africa or with potential partners in Saudi Arabia, which is positioning itself as a global mineral processing hub. Hallam emphasized that while the project is still a few years away from full production, it marks a significant shift in South Africa’s PGM mining landscape, with the northern limb likely to become the future focus of the industry.

A wave of end-of-life automobiles that are set to be recycled could flood markets with palladium, warned Matt Watson, founder of Precious Metals Commodity Management.
This week Watson recorded an episode of Green Rush with Mohammad Doostmohammadi, CEO and founder of pH7 Technology.
While palladium prices could be depressed, the growing hydrogen sector could benefit platinum, said Watson.
PH7 Technologies is a clean tech company that focuses on extracting critical metals from various sources, including spent catalysts, electronic waste, and printed circuit boards. They use a proprietary closed-loop process that combines organic, inorganic, and electrochemistry to extract metals without generating wastewater or harmful emissions.
The company's technology can recover various metals such as platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, copper, gold, silver, and tin.
PH7 is currently building a pilot plant for their e-waste process and plans to commercialize it next year. They are also working with mining partners to develop onsite operations for extracting copper from sulphide ores, potentially doubling the copper supply from these mines.

Buyers of physical gold should understand their motivation for holding precious metals, said Jon Potts, managing director at FideliTrade.
This week Potts recorded an episode of Green Rush with Matt Watson, founder of Precious Metals Commodity Management.
FideliTrade is a precious metals firm and authorized mint distributor. The company provides trading, custody, shipping and investment services.
Watson and Potts discussed motivations for owning precious metals, preferred bullion denominations and the distinction between physical bullion and ETFs. They also explored central bank buying trends, the performance of gold and silver in 2024, and the growing industrial demand for silver.
Some investors want to have their gold at hand, while others don't want to worry about the security risks that arises from holding the metal.
"There's not a right or wrong answer," said Potts. "They just view risk very differently. And that kind of plays into it: what is the motivation for owning it? And what is the motivation for storing it or taking delivery of it?"

The palladium market will be over-supplied, said Oliver Krestin, managing director of Hensel Recycling.
This week Krestin recorded an episode of Green Rush with Matt Watson, founder of Precious Metals Commodity Management LLC.
Headquartered in Germany, Hensel Recycling Group is a precious metal recycling business that has been operating since 1998. The company has over 240 employees. Hensel recycles automotive and industrial catalytic converters, oxygen sensors, e-scrap, and critical raw materials from the hydrogen economy.
Watson and Krestin talked about the automotive industry and internal combustion engines, which rely on catalytic converters made from platinum group metals.
"We're harvesting so much palladium in the years to come," said Krestin. "This will have an impact on the price. So even if the market is growing, the margins will go significantly down, because the value of the catalyst will decrease."
Watson also noted that all the investment in artificial intelligence and semiconductors will result in a lot of electronic waste for recyclers. The waste contains trace amounts of precious metals.
