New Data Links Long Sulfide Intervals to Conductive Trends at Minnesota Copper-Nickel Target
On February 24, Leede Financial reported that copper equity valuations were implying a copper price of US$6.48 per pound, which it characterized as a record high. The firm stated that the average premium of 12% to the spot price of US$5.78 per pound appeared reasonable relative to historical levels. It noted that this premium had increased from 7% at the beginning of the month and from 3% at the start of the year. Leede added that the current premium remained below the three-year average of 19% but was slightly above the long-term average of 10% recorded since 2018.
A February 26 report from IndexBox stated that U.S. unwrought nickel consumption rose to 639,000 tons in 2024 after two years of decline, with the market valued at US$18.6 billion. The report noted that domestic production increased to 564,000 tons, while imports declined to 85,000 tons, with Canada supplying about half of total U.S. nickel imports by both volume and value. Export volumes rose for a third consecutive year to approximately 10,000 tons, with key destinations including Mexico, France, and the United Kingdom, and average export prices of about US$33,575 per ton compared with import prices averaging US$18,037 per ton. IndexBox forecasts that, driven by rising demand, the U.S. nickel market could grow modestly to about 679,000 tons and US$23.3 billion in value by 2035.
John Newell of John Newell & Associates wrote that Green Bridge Metals “remains a Speculative Buy” and identified a next resistance level near CA$0.40.
In a February 27 article published in Ahead of the Herd, Morgan Sherburne reported on research led by a University of Michigan geologist examining future copper supply. The study found that supply challenges remained linked to pricing and regulatory considerations.
It concluded that “the price of copper must at least double in order to spur the development of new copper mines to meet the world’s growing demand for the metal.” Researchers also stated that satisfying baseline copper demand would require both higher prices and reforms to permitting processes to support mine development.
Also on February 27, Excelsior Prosperity’s Shad Marquitz addressed recent movements in metals markets in a market commentary. He wrote that “copper, like gold, is making new all-time highs on the weekly chart,” and described copper as “an important critical mineral, energy metal, and it often occurs in gold and silver deposits getting mined right along with the PMs.” Marquitz further observed that, despite the strength in pricing, sector sentiment had remained subdued. He noted that “one would expect there to be more cheers… considering the price breakouts,” adding that the broader market environment resembled what he described as “a quiet stealth rally” that had attracted limited mainstream attention.
In a January 2 contributed opinion, Michael Ballanger of GGM Advisory Inc. outlined his decision to add Green Bridge Metals Corp. to his portfolio in late 2025. He wrote that he became familiar with the company after a Zoom meeting with CEO David Suda, who presented details of the Serpentine Project in Minnesota’s Duluth Mining District. Ballanger characterized the district as hosting numerous exploration and development initiatives and described it as “one of the most highly prospective regions on the planet.”
Ballanger also addressed the company’s exposure to titanium through its South Contact Zone assets, referencing a white paper that identified titanium as “a critical mineral by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) due to its essential role in economic and national security.” He noted that drilling activity at the South Contact Zone was expected to begin later that month, with work at Serpentine scheduled afterward. Ballanger cited a 2026 target price of CA$0.75 and US$0.55.
1In a separate February 4 contributed technical analysis report, John Newell of John Newell & Associates evaluated Green Bridge Metals Corp. in relation to U.S. critical minerals initiatives. Newell wrote that the company was assembling a North American asset base focused on copper, nickel, titanium, vanadium, and related metals, and stated that its strategy emphasized advancing projects supported by existing infrastructure and historical datasets. He wrote that the company’s Minnesota presence was “designed for exactly this kind of moment” as domestic critical minerals policy gained momentum.
Regarding the TITAC Project, Newell wrote that the company had “now commenced diamond core drilling at the TITAC Project in Minnesota, targeting copper mineralization associated with the same intrusive package that already hosts a titanium dioxide resource.” He stated that the initial Phase 1 program included “six diamond drill holes, roughly 1,800 metres total.” In his conclusion, Newell wrote that Green Bridge Metals “remains a Speculative Buy” and identified a next resistance level near CA$0.40.
