Other metals such as zinc or silver often accompany gold and copper in a deposit. An industrial metal and a precious metal, copper and gold should have a successful future ahead of them. Gold is considered a proven investment that is independent of institutions, which is a major advantage. With fiat money, on the other hand, there are legitimate doubts about its stability. Currently, demand for gold and silver is leading to shortages. This is particularly true following the recent decline in the price of gold, as investors are looking for buying opportunities. According to BayernLB, a state of emergency has prevailed for around six weeks.

Delivery bottlenecks and delays are therefore the order of the day. For gold, delivery dates are in some cases at the end of April, depending on the refinery. Gold is more popular than ever in these uncertain times, whether among private investors, institutional investors, or central banks. And in most cases, when entry prices are low, the price of gold tends to rise again fairly quickly. Central banks are also likely to snap up gold when the price is a little cheaper, which in turn supports the price.

Copper currently costs just under US$13,000 per ton. Without copper, wind turbines, artificial intelligence, and electric mobility would not function. Around a quarter of the world’s copper comes from Chile, the world’s largest producer, and production there appears to be slowing. Ore grades are falling and production volumes at various mines are lower than expected. Copper production in Chile has declined in the last five months of 2025. With the right companies, it is possible to invest in both gold and copper at the same time.

Blue Moon Metals – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/blue-moon-metals-inc/ – owns the Nussir copper-gold-silver project and the NSG copper-zinc-gold-silver project in Norway. Both are progressing very well. An underground access is currently being created in Nussir. Then there is the Blue Moon zinc-copper-gold-silver project in the USA. The acquisition of the Springer Mine secures the infrastructure necessary for mineral processing in Nevada.

GoldMining – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/goldmining-inc/ – has large gold and copper projects in North and South America. The 100% company-owned Crucero project in Peru has significant antimony mineralization in addition to gold. There are currently good drilling results from the Sao Jorge project in Brazil.
