How Is COVID-19 Affecting Metals And Mining Companies?

by Spencer Israel Benzinga Editor

FlipboardIcon version of the Flipboard logo

The markets for gold, silver, and other precious metals have been as volatile over the last two months as they’ve been at any point in history.  

The worldwide spread of COVID-19 has sent gold rallying to 7-year highs. Silver, meanwhile, sold off to an 11-year low in March before regaining roughly half its losses in April. The same goes for platinum, which fell to a 17-year low before regaining half its losses, and copper, which hit a 4-year low before bouncing back. 

In the wake of the pandemic’s first wave, some mining companies have fared better than others. Companies with mining operations in South America and West Africa like New Pacific Metals Corp. (OTCQX:NUPMF) and Endeavour Mining Corp. (OTCQX:EDVMF) have regained the majority of their losses. Others have not been so lucky. 

Just like every other industry, a clear line has been drawn in the metals and mining industry: there is pre-COVID-19, and post-COVID-19. And it’s created a host of new questions ranging from the future of mine sites, to transportation restrictions, to key material shortages. 

Below is the schedule for the conference. Each presentation is followed by a virtual Q&A session with attendees and is available on demand.
