In Chinese robot schools, robots are learning everything from ironing clothes to cleaning tasks and working on assembly lines in companies. There are reportedly already more than 40 centers in China where robot data is being collected, with government support. Robots are becoming faster and smarter; with the right sensors, they can see and feel. Here in Switzerland, robots assist with the asparagus harvest, sorting the asparagus, for example.
In the healthcare sector, researchers are working on tiny robots—nano- and micro-robots - that can be sent into the bloodstream to assist in treating diseases. However, it will still be some time before they are used clinically. As is well known, lithium and cobalt are required for the necessary batteries. Copper and silver are also used in new technologies due to their special properties, for example in cables, sensors, and electronic components. Copper is found in circuits and motors, while silver is used for sensitive components and contacts. These two raw materials ensure durability and performance.
Like silver, copper is also benefiting from the energy transition. Electric vehicles are in demand, as are solar and wind power systems. Disruptions are particularly common in the copper sector - just think of the Grasberg, El Teniente, or Kamoa-Kakula copper mines. Declining ore grades, the very long time it takes to go from development to production in a mine, and rising demand will support the price of copper. And silver has been in deficit for years. With increasing electrification, demand for lithium-ion batteries is also growing. Companies with the relevant raw materials should therefore be able to look to the future with optimism.
Blue Moon Metals - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/blue-moon-metals-inc/ - owns five polymetallic brownfield projects: the Nussir copper-gold-silver project and the NSG copper-zinc-gold-silver project in Norway. In the U.S., the company holds the Blue Moon zinc-gold-silver-copper project, the Springer tungsten-molybdenum project, and the Apex germanium-gallium-copper project. All projects are strategically located and have existing infrastructure.
Axo Copper - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/axo-copper-corp/ - owns the La Huerta copper project in Mexico. It covers approximately 11,300 hectares and is a new copper discovery in the promising Sierra Madre Belt. The latest drill results are extremely positive (for example, 2.26 percent copper and 6.29 grams of silver per ton of rock, as well as a 4.2-meter interval grading 3.69 percent copper and 9.33 grams of silver per ton of rock). The company recently acquired Sapuchi Minera and, with it, the San Antonio Gold Project in Mexico, which is at an advanced stage of development.
