Gold eases from 3-month highs, palladium investors wary of Ukraine conflict.

Gold prices fell on Monday, as the U.S. dollar gained, with worries around the Russia-Ukraine conflict limiting losses of the safe-haven metal and keeping palladium traders on tenterhooks.

High global copper prices should help attract the investment needed for Zambia

Zambia Finance Minister, Situmbeko Musokotwane, says high global copper prices should help attract the investment needed to allow Zambia to boost its annual production to about 3 million tonnes over the coming decade from an estimated 800,000 tonnes in 2021. First, however, the government must find an investor to take a minority stake in Mopani Copper Mines and fund a planned expansion, Musokotwane said. State-owned mining investment firm ZCCM-IH bought Mopani from Glencore a year ago. The government is also seeking to end a dispute over Konkola Copper Mines (KCM).… Read More Here
