Gold prices hit two-month high on rising Covid-19 restrictions and weak US dollar

Bitcoin price rally indicates investor concerns over weakening currencies

  • Gold prices have surged in the new year, as a novel strain of coronavirus rages in Europe- leading to doubts over a swift economic recovery over multiple regions.
  • It is being reported that stricter measures are currently being considered in the UK, Europe and Japan.
  • Spot gold rose 1.4% to $1,924/oz on Monday morning, while US gold futures climbed 1.8% to $1,929/oz (Reuters).
  • The US dollar continued its decline on Monday, with the dollar index falling 0.3%, driven by worries that the US is failing to effectively contain Covid-19 and inflation woes with the prospect of further US stimulus not ruled out. 
  •  Renewed declines in US real yields have also boosted gold’s appeal, with real yields at -1.092% on Friday. Gold traditionally outperforms when real interests rates are low (Bloomberg).  

 

Year of the Metal Ox set to lead China into new era of growth

  • The new Chinese year starts 12th February and ends on 30th January 2022.
  • According to mythology, the Jade Emperor said the order of the animals would be decided by the order in which they arrived to his party. The Ox was about to be the first to arrive, but Rat tricked Ox into giving him a ride. Then, just as they arrived, Rat jumped down and landed ahead of Ox. Thus, Ox became the second of the Zodiac animals. The Ox is seen as a hard working animal, intelligent and reliable, but never demanding in praise.

Company News

Bushveld Minerals* (BMN LN) 19.88p, Mkt cap £237m – Opportunity for Bushveld to lead grid storage developments. Vanadium prices rise in Europe

(Bushveld Energy has negotiated to holds 50% Enerox Holdings Limited (50% other investor) which holds 90% of Enerox GmbH along with 8.71% in Invinity) If no other investors participating then the €3.7m loan will be split between the Bushveld and the other investor.

BUY - Valuation 37.7p

  • Fortune Mojapelo, Bushveld’s founder and CEO refers to the opportunity for South Africa to develop the stationary energy storage market where substantial growth in developments is expected over the next 20 years on Miningmx.com today.
  • Fortune calls for South Africa to ‘develop vertically integrated opportunities that maximise South Africa’s share of the value chain.’
  • ‘South Africa already has the metallurgical infrastructure that can be leveraged to create or expand the downstream capabilities required.’.
  • ‘Gone are the days when it could be argued that China’s electricity costs and labour costs are significantly lower than South Africa’s and thus give China a competitive advantage for developing a downstream jobs-intensive processing industry.’
  • Bushveld Energy is preparing to build a new vanadium electrolyte plant in South Africa in jv with the Industrial Development Corporation to fill the next generation of VRFBs ‘Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries’
  • Bloomberg NEF estimate stationary energy storage deployments are set to grow 122 times over the next 20 years from a cumulative 17GWh in 2018 to >2,850 GWh by 2040.
  • Bushveld also holds stakes and first right of refusal agreements with Invinity Energy Systems (8.71%) and Enerox Holdings (50%) which are working on the instillation of VRFB systems
  • We see this as an important growth area in the support of wind and solar power developments for grid stability and for energy provision in areas where Li-ion battery packs work less well.
  • Vanadium prices rise in Europe by 3.8% to $24.67-25.3/kgV but pull back 3.3% in China to $29-30/kgV
  • The move reflects increasing shipments into China and rising confidence in Europe for recovery in the construction sector
  • Vanadium producers are exporting more of their output into China to take advantage of the higher prices
  • The move by producers to sell more into China lengthens supply Chains and effectively locks-up more material in transit which should cause prices to rise higher in the near future.
  • China imposes a 13% tariff on imported vanadium accounting for a portion of the price differential.

Conclusion: We see Bushveld Energy as paying an important and significant role in the development of grid storage solutions through VRFB battery developments in South Africa and around the world and for this part of the business to lead Bushveld’s valuation and rating higher going forward.

Caledonia Mining* (CMCL LN) 1260p, Mkt Cap £146m – Quarterly dividend increased

  • Caledonia Mining has announced a 10% increase in its quarterly dividend to 11UScents/share.
  • The announcement points out that Increasing production, a high gold price and good cost control have continued to result in increased cash generation which has given the Board confidence that the business can sustain a higher level of dividend distributions before the benefits of Central Shaft are realised”.
  • The company highlights that this is the fourth increase since October 2019 and comes at a time when the company is moving towards the completion of commissioning on the Central Shaft at its Blanket gold mine in Zimbabwe which provides access to deeper level mineralisation and helps ensure the future of production at around 80,000ozpa into the 2030s.
  • Caledonia Mining says that it expects production from the mine to be in the range 61-67,000oz of gold in 2021 before reaching the target 80,000oz level from 2022.
  • Commenting on the increased dividend, CEO, Steve Curtis, underlined that the increase is “the fourth increase in the past 15 months representing a cumulative 60 per cent rise in the dividend since the first increase in October 2019. The decision by the Board to increase the dividend reflects our continued and increasing confidence in the outlook for our business.”
  • Mr. Curtis also said that “As we approach the end of the six-year investment programme at Blanket Mine, we expect the combination of rising production and declining capital investment over the next two years will give us the scope to consider further increases in the dividend in addition to providing funding for investment in new projects, including the exploration prospects at Glen Hume and Connemara North as announced on 10 and 17 December 2020, respectively.”

Conclusion: In recent times, Caledonia Mining has delivered the fourth increase in its quarterly dividend since October 2019. The increase comes as the long term investment in the new Central Shaft is coming to fruition securing increased gold output, lower capital and operating costs and a long-term future for the mine. Current robust gold prices are likely to provide further opportunities to reward shareholders and also to advance other opportunities including the recently announced exploration projects at HGlen Hume and Connemara.

Castillo Copper (CCZ LN) 2.25p, Mkt Cap £20.8m – Progress report on drilling at the Big One project in Queensland

  • Castillo Copper reports that during Q4 2020, a total of 20 reverse-circulation drill holes were completed at its Big One project in Queensland.
  • Today’s announcement does not indicate the total metres drilled during the campaign but confirms that 14 holes were drilled as part of the 300 series campaign with a further six holes in the 200 series.
  • The company also confirms that the Board is targeting to release complete drill logs and relevant observations for all 20 drill-holes - in two to three batches – shortly”.
  • The company outlines its priorities for exploration at Big One during the first half of 2021, including “a comprehensive geophysical campaign to identify potential massive sulphide conductors that would extend known mineralisation and provide new test-drill targets along the strike extent” as well as extending its drilling to the Arya Prospect and starting to model the resources at the Big One Prospect to JORC standard.
  • Castillo Copper’s Managing Director, Simon Paull, explained that in view of “geological interpretations of historic and fresh assays suggesting a shallow, high-grade scalable copper system apparent at the Big One Deposit”.

Conclusion: We look forward to the release of full drilling results from the Big One prospect and to further news of the Arya Prospect when drilling starts there following the current work at Big One.

 

Condor Gold* (CNR LN) 51.5p, Mkt Cap £59.2m – Director exercises options

  • Condor Gold reports that non-executive director, Ian Stalker has exercised £22,000 of options at a subscription price of 22p/share.  
  • During December, the company announced the commencement of initial site preparation work, including clearing trees and scrub vegetation and providing access roads to the planned 2,800tpd processing plant, at its La India project site in Nicaragua.
  • We expect that with this initial work underway 2021 is likely to be a busy year for Condor Gold as it moves ahead with the development of La India where, “Following the permitting of the Mestiza and America open pits, together with the La India open pit Condor has 1.12M oz gold open pit Mineral Resources permitted for extraction, inclusive of a Mineral Reserve of 6.9Mt at 3.0g/t gold for 675,000 oz gold”.

Conclusion: We interpret the exercising of options by a director as a positive indication of support and confidence as Condor Gold advances its of site preparation work at La India in the development of the mine planned to produce an average 120,000oz pa of gold over the first seven years of operations.

Power Metal Resources* (POW LN) 2.85p, Mkt cap £26m – REE Exploration underway at Ditau Project, Botswana 

Kavango Resources (KAV LN) 2.9p, Mkt cap £7.5m

  • Power Metal and Kavango have provided an update for their Ditau rare earth project, of which both companies have 50% of the strategic joint venture.
  • First stage orientation work is complete on mangnetic anomaly “I10”, the first of ten geophysical ring structures previously identified at the site. The ring structures are potential carbonatites, which are the principal source of REEs including Neodymium and Praseodymium.
  • Results from the I10 orientation exercise shape will allow the companies to calibrate survey equipment for follow on surveying of the remaining 9 ring structures.
  • Initial work completed on the I10 anomaly includes controlled-source audio-frequency magnetotellurics (CSAMT) geophysics orientation on a 5km line run at 50m station interval, along with soil geochemistry samples taken over the same line at 200m spacing- the results of which are expected by early February.
  • Follow up surveys at I10 planned for mid-January include gravity surveys at 50m intervals and ground magnetic surveys at 12.5m station spacing.
  • Further planned work at Ditau includes geophysical surveying and soil sampling planned in Q1/Q2 2021, along with an exploratory drill campaign anticipated for Q2/Q3 subject to successful initial exploration.
  • Paul Johnson, CEO of Power Metal Resources commented: "The Strategic Joint Venture with Kavango is surging ahead with work completed and announced from the Kalahari Copper Belt, and now from the Ditau Project. With the Ditau Project we are seeking a discovery of rare earth elements (REEs), which are highly valuable and sought after commodities, particularly from secure and stable jurisdictions such as Botswana.”.
  • Micheak Foster, CEO of Kavango Resources commented: "We have completed a lot of valuable work at Ditau over recent years. Drill cores from our 2019 campaign confirmed the presence of highly altered Karoo sediments, sitting above a mafic intrusive body. The alteration extended to depths >300m. Our job is now to confirm whether or not the ring structures contain carbonatite, and if so, evaluate them for valuable minerals. Once we have calibrated our equipment based on the results from the I10 anomaly, we will survey the remaining 9 ring structures to identify potential drill targets.”
