Tin and potash are likely to be among the raw materials for which the future prospects are extremely promising.
About half of tin, also known as "metal glue", is processed into solder. Tin is unique, because hardly any other raw material will benefit as much from the demand for semiconductors as tin. A lot is being invested in transition metals such as lithium and nickel, unlike tin. Demand for semiconductors is therefore an indicator of tin demand and demand from this sector is currently on the rise. In 2011, the reserve-production ratio of tin was the lowest of all metals. At the same time, demand increased due to its use in computer chips. A lot of tin comes from Myanmar, but tin production there has probably already peaked in 2016. Large open-cast mines are exhausted there and most of it is now mined underground. This is more expensive, and the ore quality is low. Mine owners strive to increase their profits with higher-grade ore.
Ore with less than three percent tin was usually stored. In the past, grades of more than ten percent were normal, today it is usually only between two and three percent tin. Mining in Myanmar has since been stopped by the Wa state. In the meantime, the ban has been lifted for most mining operations. The primary supply is therefore declining overall, and demand is growing.
Good for tin companies like Tin One Resources - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/tinone-resources-inc/ -. The company's tin/tungsten and lithium projects are located in Tasmania and New South Wales, Australia.
There should also be great opportunities for potash as a raw material for fertilizers. This is because the world's population's need for food is increasing, both in terms of quantity and quality. More than 700 million people go hungry every day. Potash fertilizer ensures a significantly higher crop yield and improved disease resistance. Potassium is essential for plants and fertilization is recommended even in optimal soils to prevent a drop in soil potassium levels (maintenance fertilization).
Millennial Potash - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/millennial-potash-corp/ -, for example, is responsible for potash. According to the preliminary economic assessment, its potash project in Gabon, Africa, has robust and economically favorable potential. The potash deposit is of high quality, the infrastructure is good, and the country is mining friendly.
