Mining’s old guard needs strong medicine
A new report details subpar investor returns in the mining industry over the last decade, particularly big cap diversified companies which have not adapted to new realities.
Glacier Resource Innovation Group (GRIG) and The Northern Miner have entered an agreement with CPM Group LLC that will see CPM Group’s precious metals, other metals, and commodities research reports available via The Northern Miner’s online platform.
The program will begin with CPM Group’s annual Gold Yearbook, Silver Yearbook, and Platinum Group Metals Yearbook. These reports have been published annually since 1987. The reports are released in March, April and June/July each year. The 2019 Yearbooks are available online now. Future Yearbooks will be available as they are released, starting with the 2020 Gold Yearbook next Tuesday 24 March; the 2020 Silver Yearbook 28 April 2020; and the 2020 Platinum Group Metals Yearbook 30 June 2020.
Other research reports, such as CPM’s Long-Term Outlook reports with 10-years projections of supply, demand, and price on precious, base, and specialty metals may be added to the marketing program later.
“Financial markets are going through major transformations, part of which includes buy and sell side institutions streamlining their information flows to focus on real research and to pivot away from marketing hype. These trends are reflected throughout global industries, including the mining industry,” said Jeffrey M. Christian, Managing Partner at CPM Group.
“We are finding a range of companies seeking to work with CPM as a source of unbiased, detailed, accurate statistics, research, and analysis in metals and commodities. We are thrilled to have this early collaboration with GRIG and The Northern Miner, which have always been a beacon of journalistic integrity in a heavily promoted market. We have provided content to The Northern Miner for decades ad hoc and welcome this more formal relationship.”
The reports, when published, will be available via northernminer.com.
“Glacier and The Northern Miner have always sought to be the premier sources for information on metals, mining, and a wide range of commodities. We are excited to extend the range of products we offer by including CPM’s highly regarded reports on gold, silver, and platinum group metals,” said Anthony Vaccaro, Publisher of The Northern Miner and Chief Content Officer at GRIG.
