Tin ($39,161/t) extends gains on Indonesian supply crunch and sustained demand

  • Tin continues to climb higher as supply remains constrained from Myanmar and Indonesia.
  • Tin prices bottomed at c.$30,000/t in May and have been rallying through the end of the year.
  • Man Maw in Myanmar remains suspended, limiting concentrate supply into Chinese refiners.
  • Indonesia has seen supply crack downs from President Subiato, focused on illegal mining in Sumatra.
  • Increased security risks from eastern DRC, where M23 remain active, is constraining artisanal tin supply.
  • SMM reports solder enterprises are operating at lower levels, amid higher tin prices and weak margins.

Copper ($11,254/t) pushes higher as market books copper futures in preparation for physical tightness next year

  • Copper prices extended its two- week run with the market starting to anticipate supply-side physical shortages next year.
  • Grassberg remains offline. Kamoa-Kakula just downgraded production. El Tiente cut guidance and Teck’s QB2 expansion is being held up by tailings issues.
  • The CSPT ‘China Smelter Purchasing Team’ agreed to reduce production 10% next year in an attempt to raise Treatment and Refining charge rates
  • Codelco is reported to be asking for a premium of US$335/t over LME prices for 2026 annual contracts
  • The Codelco premium for physical copper into Europe is $325/t in 2026 from $234/t last year.
  • Arubis are offering a $315/t premium vs the historic average of $180-220/t.
  • On the flip side, a Chinese broker is commenting on local demand weakening into the winter with copper premiums at four-month lows as near-term demand falls away.
  • Remember, the Chinese government is now enforcing holiday time on manufacturers and workers alike as it works to stimulate domestic demand.
  • Longer holidays, may lead to higher employment and or extended shutdowns, particularly over seasonal holidays such as the Lunar New Year.
  • Buying activity is seen in January to May copper futures with the trade locking in prices ahead of any potential physical supply squeeze.

Endeavour Mining (EDV LN) 3,571p, Mkt cap £8.5bn – Ramping up ex-West Africa exploration alongside near-mine resource additions

  • Endeavour has provided an update on their next five year plans for resource growth.
  • The Company is targeting the discovery of 12-15moz of mineral resources between 2026-2030 at an average cost of $40/oz.
  • Near-mine brownfield exploration aimed at expanding mine lives beyond the 10 year target, aimed at adding an additional 6-9moz.
  • Greenfield exploration targets aimed at adding 6moz of additional resources, prioritised in West Africa.
  • Endeavour is allocating $100m of annual exploration spend over the period.
  • Endeavour breaks down their resource addition targets as follows:
    • Ity: 5.4moz in MRE, targeting 1-1.5moz
    • Houndé mine: 3.3moz in MRE, targeting 1.5-2moz
    • Sabodala-Massawa: 5.2moz MRE, targeting 1.5-2moz
    • Lafigué: 2.9moz MRE, targeting 1-1.5moz

    • Assafou: 4.6moz MRE, targeting 1-1.5moz
    • Greenfields: 3moz MRE, targeting 6moz additional
    • MRE represents Measured and Indicated category
  • Endeavour’s greenfield exploration programme will target three gold provinces outside of West Africa: Central Asian Orogenic Belt, Guiana Shield and West Tethyan Metallogenic Belt.
  • Management is targeting exploration regions with transparent legal frameworks, established mining sectors, and existing infrastructure.
  • Endeavour considers a tier 1 deposit as holding at least 3moz, low production costs and >10 year LOM potential.
  • Endeavour is targeting areas with minimal sub-surface exploration history.
  • Endeavour will look to target the discovery of two to three potential tier 1 projects over 2026-2030.
