Interview with Arturo Préstamo Elizondo, Executive Chairman & CEO of Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/santacruz-silver-tsxvscz-strong-cash-generation-funds-debt-free-growth-8019Recording date: 13th February 2026Santacruz Silver Mining (TSXV:SCZ) represents a transformed investment opportunity following the elimination of all debt obligations and completion of its NASDAQ listing in January 2026. The multi-metal producer operates four mines across Bolivia and Mexico, generating substantial cash flows with an $80 million treasury position after paying $70 million in Glencore obligations and tax liabilities during 2025.The company's debt-free, streaming-free, royalty-free capital structure directs 100% of operational cash flows to equity holders during a period of elevated silver and zinc prices. This clean balance sheet distinguishes Santacruz from leveraged competitors and producers with streaming obligations that divert metal production at below-market prices, creating immediate margin expansion as commodity prices strengthen.Management projects 5-7% production growth from operational efficiencies independent of metal price assumptions or acquisition execution. The Zimapan mine in Mexico delivered a $2.5 million investment in flotation cell circuits that improved silver recoveries by 500 basis points, generating approximately $5 million in incremental monthly cash flow—a 20-month payback demonstrating disciplined capital allocation. The mine's advancement to Level 960 encounters wider ore bodies with silver grades of 80-90 grams per tonne and zinc content of 2.5-3.5% across the 2,800-tonne-per-day operation.In Bolivia, the Bolivar mine is recovering from 2025 flooding through systematic dewatering infrastructure that increased capacity to over 700 litres per second—five times pre-flooding levels and nearly double peak flood conditions. Fourth quarter 2025 production showed quarter-over-quarter silver increases as access to flooded veins improves, whilst development work necessitated by the flooding discovered new high-grade veins creating unanticipated exploration upside.Near-term production catalysts include the Soracaya project targeting full permitting by June-July 2026 with production commencement in the fourth quarter, utilizing existing Bolivian milling infrastructure for low-capital-intensity cash flow generation. The Esperanza mine at the Caballo Blanco complex approaches commercial production as the third operating mine within that group, leveraging existing infrastructure for brownfield expansion.The Bolivian operating environment transformed following the 2025 election of President Rodrigo Paz, whose administration declared mining a strategic industry and announced constitutional reforms to encourage foreign investment. As Bolivia's largest underground mining company, Santacruz occupies a prominent position during this regulatory evolution, with improved political conditions creating potential M&A opportunities whilst reducing political risk for existing operations.The January 2026 NASDAQ listing provides strategic access to US institutional investors and family offices, expanding the investor base beyond Canadian venture shareholders whilst early trading data demonstrates volume improvements. US institutional capital historically applies higher valuation multiples to Latin American precious metals producers than Canadian venture markets alone.Management employs a distinctive operational approach tracking per-tonne costs rather than conventional all-in sustaining cost metrics, maintaining five-year rolling budgets with detailed weekly mining plans to prevent short-term high-grading that compromises long-term mine life. This disciplined capital allocation framework, combined with direct executive operational involvement demonstrated through systematic site visits and hands-on crisis management during the Bolivar flooding, distinguishes the approach from volume-focused competitors.For investors seeking exposure to silver and base metals through an established producer with near-term growth catalysts, operational leverage to metallurgical improvements, and exposure to transformative Bolivian political changes, Santacruz presents a differentiated opportunity with multiple risk mitigation factors relative to earlier-stage developers or debt-burdened producers.View Santacruz Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/santacruz-silver-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
We start with copper miner Antofagasta (ANTO), whose shares have soared over the past year on the back of big gains for the red metal. It released full-year figures earlier this week, and Alex Hamer discusses its prospects, as well as Rio Tinto and Glencore now the mega-merger is off. Alex also explains some of the equity raises that have taken place lower down the cap scale in recent weeks.Erin Withey then joins us to discuss caterer Compass (CPG), which has been struggling of late. That's led to calls for a slight rethink of its strategic priorities. Lastly, we look at one of the UK's newest listings, albeit in the form of a business that sits outside the FTSE 350. The Magnum Ice Cream Company (MICC) spun off from Unilever in December and has just reported its 2025 results. Mark Robinson examines the outlook for frozen sweet treats.Read more:Antofagasta doubles dividend as profits hit new recordCheaper Compass shares put buybacks on the menuMagnum Ice Cream fails to impress in maiden resultsTimestamps:00:00 Intro01:24 Copper mining15:09 Compass Group23:25 Magnum ice creamInvestors' Chronicle has supported private investors in the UK for over 160 years by highlighting rewarding investment opportunities.

AI is already changing commodity trading operating models. And unlocking adjacent technologies such as digital assets and DeFI? That itself is changing the competitive landscape and attracting new participants from outside the sector. Where is that investment going? And how profound is this change going to be? And how quickly is it going to be upon us? Our guest is Eren Zekioglu. Eren has spent a career at hedge funds and at trading houses and at the intersection of trading, operations and technology, including at Glencore and Gunvor.

Qu'en est-il de l'accord entre la RDC et les États-Unis sur les minerais stratégiques ? Début février, les deux pays se sont retrouvés pour un premier comité de pilotage. La RDC produit plus de 70% du cobalt mondial, utilisé notamment pour les batteries électriques. Cet accord entre Washington et Kinshasa était évidemment au cœur du Mining Indaba qui a eu lieu la semaine dernière au Cap. De notre envoyé spécial au Cap, Le ministre des Mines congolais, Louis Watum Kabamba, se défend de « brader » le potentiel minier de la RDC en signant cet accord sur les minerais stratégiques avec Washington. Aux dernières nouvelles, la balle est dans le camp américain, qui analyse une liste de projets transmise par Kinshasa : « Il y a toute une panoplie de projets pour lesquels nous avons arrêté une liste convenue avec les États-Unis. Quand je dis projets, il n'y a pas que dans les mines. Dans l'agriculture, dans l'énergie, dans l'assistance technique, etc. Cette liste va être mise au-devant du secteur privé américain pour que les parties intéressées puissent se prononcer dans un bref délai. Peut-être dans les prochains jours ou les prochaines semaines. Nous nous mettrons ensemble maintenant pour aller dans ces projets et voir comment nous pouvons structurer des partenariats et des financements. » Dans les projets qui paraissent avancés et qui font grand bruit : les 40% d'actifs que Glencore pourrait céder aux Américains. Un plan pour « soutenir les ambitions du gouvernement américain avec l'approvisionnement en deux minerais critiques », selon l'entreprise. On parle ici de cobalt et de cuivre. « Glencore ne se retire pas. Si un accord est conclu, nous avons pleinement l'intention d'être majoritaires et de conserver le contrôle. Il s'agit en réalité d'un signe de confiance de la part des investisseurs américains soutenus par l'État américain concernant les actifs de cuivre en RDC », précise Mark Davis, le PDG de Glencore en Afrique. À lire aussiAccord sur les minerais États-Unis-RDC: de quels projets parle-t-on? Les banques locales, un acteur stratégique Sur le terrain, les acteurs financiers sont en ordre de bataille. Même si ces accords sont encore très opaques, Jean-Eric Matunga, de la Rawbank, précise le rôle des banques locales congolaises. Le directeur en charge des financements structurels était à Washington en octobre dernier. « Le dialogue est permanent entre les investisseurs, les acteurs locaux et les banques. On joue notre rôle d'intermédiaire d'une manière assez poussée. Parce que ces capitaux, qui viennent vers la RDC, il faut pouvoir les orienter, mais il faut pouvoir aussi les structurer en fonction des réalités locales, mais aussi des connaissances de la réglementation. C'est là que les banques locales jouent un rôle clé de catalyseur et de connecteur entre ces capitaux qui doivent venir pour pouvoir les structurer et les rendre potables à la réalité locale », explique Jean-Eric Matunga. « On a des clients du secteur privé avec qui nous connectons les investisseurs américains, surtout pour pouvoir combler la phase de financement pendant la partie d'exploration avant le développement de la mine, qui est une phase critique », précise encore cet acteur bancaire. Si beaucoup d'acteurs du secteur s'enthousiasment de ces discussions avec Washington, dans le cadre du processus de paix entre la RDC et le Rwanda, aucun accord n'a jusqu'ici permis de mettre fin aux combats sur le terrain.

The Bank of England and the European Central Bank both kept rates unchanged yesterday, signalling a cautious but data‑dependent stance even as inflation trends diverge on either side of the Channel. European equities finished broadly lower on the back of a busy earnings day, while in the US a third straight sell‑off pushed the S&P 500 into negative territory for the year. Crypto joined the risk‑off trend, while silver remained the standout story in commodities after back‑to‑back plunges and an overnight rebound that left volatility high. In corporate news, Rio Tinto and Glencore scrapped their merger discussions.

This week on Talking Wealth, Janine examines the potential merger between RIO and Glencore, why RIO shareholders are in limbo, and at what price is RIO a buy? She shares her insights into whether RIO could be about to fall further and what the merged entity could do for the Materials sector.
While global superpowers eye new territories for mineral wealth and the likes of Glencore and Rio Tinto dance around a potential merger, investors are looking at the most versatile commodity around in 2026: copper. This critical transition metal has captured the imagination of corporate advisors and retail investors alike. In this episode of Magic Markets, The Finance Ghost and Moe-Knows are joined by Connie Bloem, Managing Director of Mesh.Trade, to discuss why direct-exposure copper is the missing link in most portfolios – and how a token can help you get it. Ghost, Moe and Connie unpack the electrification and data-centre themes, the challenges of institutional vs. retail portfolios, and why copper is one hot metal (in more ways than one). Today's Topics: Why you can't talk about data centres or the AI revolution without talking about copper infrastructure, with thoughts around the future of electrification and the role of copper. Why direct-exposure commodity tokens might be a better portfolio ‘anchor' than mining equities. How to invest in a metal that costs $13,000 per tonne with as little as R50 through Mesh's offering. How a digital token can solve the vaulting, deposit, and theft problems of copper for retail investors.

Interview with Jason Jessup, CEO of Magna Mining Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/magna-mining-tsxvnicu-permits-cash-and-polymetallic-grades-set-stage-for-rapid-growth-7927Recording date: 12th January 2026Magna Mining executed a remarkable transformation in 2025, evolving from a junior exploration company into a diversified base and precious metals producer focused exclusively on Ontario's Sudbury mining camp. The company's growth trajectory accelerated dramatically following its February 2025 acquisition of the McCreedy West copper mine from KGHM International, expanding its workforce from 25 to over 200 employees while establishing cash flow positive operations.McCreedy West reached a critical operational inflection point in Q4 2025, achieving three simultaneously active stopes that enable consistent production. The mine currently focuses on the high-grade 700 copper zone, though CEO Jason Jessup indicated the company is evaluating a restart of the Intermediate nickel zone if prices sustain above $7.75 per pound. This operational foundation positions the company for sustained cash generation in 2026.The company's Levack mine presents perhaps the most exciting near-term opportunity following the August 2025 R2 zone discovery. Results showed spectacular high-grade copper and precious metals intersections, with many delivering multiple ounces of precious metals alongside significant copper and silver grades. The geological team describes R2 as the upper branches of a system that could lead to much larger mineralisation at depth. A preliminary economic assessment expected in Q3 2026 will evaluate a dual-access strategy using both ramp and existing shaft infrastructure.Meanwhile, Crean Hill advances toward a prefeasibility study in 2026, with grid power connection and permanent dewatering infrastructure progressing. Unlike typical development projects, Magna has secured definitive offtake terms with Vale and favorable indications from Glencore based on bulk sample metallurgical testing, providing unusual commercial certainty.With over 500 square kilometers of prospective ground, $50 million in treasury, and proven M&A capabilities, Magna has positioned itself as the natural consolidator of non-core Sudbury assets. The company's polymetallic focus across copper, nickel, platinum, palladium, gold, and silver provides commodity diversification while capitalising on one of the world's most prolific mining districts.View Magna Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/magna-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

En Capital Intereconomía hemos seguido en directo la apertura del Ibex 35 y del resto de bolsas europeas. En el análisis de mercados, Xavier Brun, responsable de renta variable europea en Trea AM, ha puesto el foco en la geopolítica y las materias primas. Ha destacado la convocatoria de Donald Trump a las petroleras por Venezuela como un nuevo movimiento estratégico, subrayando la importancia del petróleo pesado de Venezuela, México y Canadá y su lectura como un “jaque” indirecto a Rusia. En el ámbito corporativo, Brun ha analizado las conversaciones entre Rio Tinto y Glencore, el interés creciente por los activos ligados al cobre —clave por su valor estratégico— y el buen comportamiento de compañías como Antofagasta, además de poner en valor el papel de Atalaya Mining en Huelva. También se ha abordado la evolución del sector defensa, en un contexto en el que Trump plantea duplicar el presupuesto, y las cifras de TSMC, que ha presentado un crecimiento de ventas del 20%, reforzando el atractivo del sector de semiconductores. Todo ello enmarcado en el debate sobre la estrategia de inversión para 2026 y una posible rotación sectorial. La jornada ha concluido con el Consultorio de Bolsa junto a José María Lerma, analista independiente.
