RESOURCES
Tungsten
Tungsten is a strategic metal with exceptional physical properties. It possesses the highest tensile strength and melting point (approximately 3,400°C) of all metals, making it highly resistant to substitution.
It is essential across a range of industries, including drilling, automotive, defence, and heavy industries.
China accounts for more than 80% of global tungsten production, and increasing concerns around supply security are further intensifying demand.
The EU Critical Raw Materials Act has designated tungsten as a high-priority strategic raw material, providing enhanced support for projects located within the European Union.
Gold
Gold presents a compelling investment proposition as a proven store of value and portfolio hedge, particularly during periods of inflation, currency volatility, and geopolitical uncertainty.
Its scarcity, global liquidity, and long-standing role as a safe-haven asset underpin sustained demand from both central banks and investors.
In addition, constrained supply growth and rising production costs support a favourable long-term price outlook, reinforcing gold’s appeal as both a defensive asset and a source of potential capital appreciation.
Note: Tungsten pricing is in Metric Tonne Unit (‘MTU’) – One MTU is 10Kg WO3
Copper
Copper is a critical resource due to its essential role in electrification, renewable energy, and infrastructure. It is widely used in wiring, electric vehicles, and power grids.
Growing demand, limited new supply, and its importance to the energy transition make copper a highly attractive commodity for mining development and long-term investment.
Zinc
Zinc is one of the world’s most versatile and essential materials, with diverse applications across construction, infrastructure, automotive manufacturing, and emerging battery technologies.
Widely used to galvanise steel and prevent corrosion, it underpins durability in critical assets. Its growing role in the energy transition supports its appeal for resource investment.
