Valuations
For valuations, we can assist with resource related processes, having experience in:
Mining projects – concept to feasibility level (SAMVAL)

Commodity specific work
Various detailed analysis and outlooks have been produced, covering amongst other areas:
Energy, construction, mobility, food and fertiliser demand
Numerous commodities at a high level, with coal, platinum group metals, niobium, manganese, phosphates, potash, nickel, copper, vanadium and iron ore in more detail
Demand side estimates would have included effects such as thrifting, substitution, and price elasticity effects as needed
Supply side estimates included effects of transport, incentive prices on projects, project (industry level) costs, production creep, and zombie volume effects.
Price estimates and dependencies, including multicommodity, cross elasticity and stock effects for metals, bulks and precious metals have been produced
