City Investors Circle Mining Review 16th January 2021
Coking coal really roofed it this week, up 14%, and has gone into contango, meaning the future price of coal into China is now being than the present market price.
Colonial Coal is a beneficiary of this strong price at a time where it’s rumoured that potential predators are circling.
Gold had a good week, as did nickel, copper, and tin.

City Investors Circle Mining Review 16th January 2021
Coking coal really roofed it this week, up 14%, and has gone into contango, meaning the future price of coal into China is now being than the present market price.
Colonial Coal is a beneficiary of this strong price at a time where it’s rumoured that potential predators are circling.
Gold had a good week, as did nickel, copper, and tin.
Mining company news
Fiore Gold’s takeover by Calibre Mining completed this week, so I am now a shareholder in a company with four producing mines, cashflow positive, plus a large treasury, which is not a bad place to be.
I hope they look to secure another near to production mine outside Nicaragua (preferably in the USA, Canada, or Mexico) as well as bringing Gold Rock in Nevada into production as soon as possible. That way there will be less focus on them being primarily a Nicaragua based producer, because that may well be holding the price back currently in my opinion.
Once Gold Rock starts producing, they will have two producing USA based gold mines, and one wonders what they propose doing with the 2 million ounce gold resource at Gold Eagle in Washington state? Hecla own the adjoining property and are key to any development of Gold Eagle apparently.

(All in US$)
Precious metals
Gold | 1818 | 1% |
Silver | 23 | 3% |
Palladium | 1895 | -2% |
Platinum | 974 | 1% |
Rhodium | 16400 | -4% |
Base metals
Copper | 4.52 | 4% |
Nickel | 10.04 | 8% |
Zinc | 1.62 | -1% |
Tin | 18.98 | 6% |
Low copper stocks on the LME, Shanghai, plus Chinese non warranted warehouse stocks are driving the price higher as maintaining supply outweighs trying to hold the price down.
Energy metals
Cobalt | 31.71 | 0% |
Manganese | 3.23 | 2% |
Lithium | 49265 | 11% |
Uranium | 45.75 | -3% |
Lithium just keeps on rising as supply concerns continue and the Chinese are focusing on supply rather than price, otherwise their EV battery factories will grind to a halt.
Bulk commodities
Iron Ore | 129.6 | 2% |
Coking Coal | 410 | 14% |
Magnesium | 7398 | -12% |
Iron ore has bounced nicely, and increased demand for coking coal combined with low stocks in China have driven the price higher. The coking coal price is now in contango.
