01 — Global Energy Transition

Increasing Demand For Clean Power.

The global energy transition is the largest capital reallocation event in modern history. It is materials-intensive in ways that supply chains are not prepared for.

Every solar panel, offshore wind turbine, and electric vehicle requires copper, silver, and a suite of critical minerals that are already in deficit. Nuclear energy, increasingly embraced as the only viable baseload alternative to fossil fuels, drives sustained uranium demand. The IEA projects a 40× increase in critical mineral requirements by 2040. Mine supply takes 16+ years to respond. The gap is structural and widening.

Copper Demand Expected To Double By 2035.

Global copper demand is projected to rise dramatically by 2035, with some forecasts suggesting an increase from 24% to over 40% driven by electrification, AI data centers, and the energy transition.¹

Several studies indicate that annual demand could reach 50 million tonnes by 2035, essentially doubling the growth rate seen in the previous 15 years.¹

The global copper market is projected to grow from USD 279.29 billion in 2026 to USD 466.67 billion by 2034, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.63% during the forecast period.²

02 — Strategic & Defence Priority

Global Defence Renaissance.

Western governments have woken up to the reality that critical mineral supply chains are a national security issue, not just an economic one.

NATO allies are rebuilding defence manufacturing capacity at scale, requiring copper, zinc, and rare earths for weapons systems, electronics, and hardened infrastructure. At the same time, multi-decade civilian infrastructure programs such as grid upgrades, data centres, ports, and rail are creating parallel, policybacked demand for the same materials. This is durable, non-discretionary demand that runs independent of commodity cycles. Reshoring of strategic manufacturing further compresses available supply.

NATO defence spending has shifted from decades of decline into a strong and sustained growth phase, accelerating after 2014 and surging following the 2022 Russia–Ukraine war. With total spending now around $1.4 trillion and a proposed increase toward 5% of GDP by 2035, this reflects a longterm expansion in military investment.¹

As modern defence systems rely heavily on critical minerals and rare earths, the rising spend directly supports increased demand for mining and exploration companies supplying these essential materials.

03 — Global Reserves

Monetary Metals.

In an era of fiscal expansion, persistent inflation, and geopolitical fragmentation, gold and silver have reasserted themselves not just as investment assets — But as strategic reserves that governments and sovereign wealth funds are actively rebuilding.

Central banks purchased gold at the fastest pace in decades in 2023 and 2024, reinforcing its role as a core reserve asset. At the same time, silver is seeing renewed interest from both investors and industry, driven by its dual role as a monetary metal and a critical component in electrification and clean energy. Tight supply, rising demand, and increasing institutional participation are reinforcing the scarcity premium across precious metals.
