On August 24, 2020 , the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released a statement concerning Northern Dynasty's proposed copper-gold-molybdenum mining project in southwest Alaska (the "Pebble Project"), stating that the project would result in "significant degradation of the environment and would likely result in significant adverse effects on the aquatic system or human environment."  The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers further found that "the project, as currently proposed, cannot be permitted under section 404 of the Clean Water Act."  The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requested that the Company submit a mitigation plan in response to this finding.

On this news, Northern Dynasty's stock price fell $0.55 per share, or 37.9%, to close at $0.90 per share on August 24 , 2020.

Then, on September 21, 2020 , the Environmental Investigation Agency ("EIA") released a recording of a conversation between EIA investigators and Company executives that demonstrated that Northern Dynasty, contrary to previous public statements, actually envisioned that the Pebble Project would have a mine life of 180 to 200 years—significantly longer than the Company had publicly represented.  Finally, on November 25, 2020 , Northern Dynasty reported that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers had rejected its permit applications related to the Pebble Project, finding "Pebble's 'compensatory mitigation plan' as submitted earlier this month to be 'non-compliant', and that the project is 'not in the public interest'".

On this news, Northern Dynasty's stock price fell $0.40 per share, or 50%, to close at $0.40 per share on November 25, 2020 .

​Copper​ Market Hit by Major Supply Squeeze as LME Inventories Drop

One of the sharpest copper supply crunches in recent memory is rattling global commodities markets, as inventories at the London Metal Exchange (LME) plummet and the spot price soars.

Bloomberg reported that as of Monday (June 23), copper for immediate delivery was trading at a premium of US$345 per metric ton over three month futures, the widest spread since a record squeeze in 2021.

That dramatic price divergence reflects the market’s acute concerns over access to physical copper, with readily available inventories on the LME falling by around 80 percent this year alone.

Top 10 Copper-producing Companies

Copper miners with productive assets have much to gain as supply and demand tighten.

In May 2024, the copper price hit a new all-time high of US$10,954 per metric ton (MT) on the London Metal Exchange and US$5.20 per pound on the COMEX on the back of increasing demand and growing supply concerns.

Copper is one of the most important resources for the energy transition. However, in recent years, demand for the red metal has outpaced mining supply. While construction and electrical grids have long been major markets for copper, today the rise in demand for electric vehicles, EV charging infrastructure and energy storage applications are emerging drivers of copper consumption.

Another trend driving future copper demand is the rapid urbanization in the Global South, as rural populations migrate to cities, putting pressure on electricity grids.

Mining Execs Call for Clarity as Canada Eyes Faster Permitting Timelines for Critical Minerals Projects

Mining Execs Call for Clarity as Canada Eyes Faster Permitting Timelines for Critical Minerals Projects

Faster permitting timelines for critical minerals projects could be a welcome game changer for junior mining and resource development companies, but clarity will be key to any meaningful reforms.

This was the sentiment among executives from junior mining companies in a recent panel discussion on Bill C-5, the Canadian government’s new major projects bill that will essentially fast track permitting for “national-interest” projects, including those essential to the country's critical minerals strategy.

The bill proposes the establishment of a Major Projects Office meant to be the single permitting agency for qualified projects that will cut permitting timelines from the typical five years down to two years.
