| | On behalf of NexMetals Mining Corp. | Shortages, tariffs, and a widening copper gap | Demand for copper is expected to double by 2035,1 and that was before Trump announced plans for a 50% tariff on copper imports to the US—driving the metal to new all-time highs. | But supply is projected to head in the opposite direction: new discoveries of copper deposits have dropped 80% since 2010, outlining a major gap in supply and demand.2 | Mining analyst Nicholas Snowdon had the following to say on the gap: | “This can only be resolved by higher prices stimulating investment in new supply.” | In short, clean energy demand plus vastly lower copper discovery rates will likely lead to shortages in the coming years. | New, smaller-cap junior miners are rushing in to fill the growing gap beneath the bigger industry players—searching for untapped deposits to capitalize on. | One junior with strong prospects is NexMetals Mining Corp. (TSXV:NEXM) (OTC:PRMLD). | A small-cap copper company to watch | NexMetals Mining Corp. controls two copper-nickel projects in Botswana, which is a politically stable, mining-friendly jurisdiction with a growing role in the global supply chain. | This company has already outlined high-grade resources at Selebi and Selkirk, with aggressive expansion drilling underway. The team is focused on high-conductivity targets beyond the current extent of drilling, with potential to grow the resource. | Market cap: Underrated potential? | With a current market capitalization of C$205 million, NexMetals Mining Corp. appears modest relative to the scale of its copper assets and development potential. | Here’s the summary on NexMetals’ prospects: | Two copper-nickel projects in Botswana High-conductivity targets associated with known mineralization C$205M market cap - seemingly undervalued relative to industry peers Drilling + resource expansion already in motion
