Why Copper Needs $6/lb Before New Mines Get Built | Altius Minerals with Brian Dalton

In this interview, Brian Dalton, CEO of Altius Minerals Corporation (TSX: ALS), provides comprehensive insights into the company’s royalty-focused business model and their strategic approach to commodity investments.

Dalton begins by explaining their preference for royalties over streams, touching on the different risk-reward profiles and capital requirements of each approach. He outlines their counter-cyclical investment strategy, which allows them to acquire assets when valuations are favorable.

He also offers valuable perspective on current market dynamics, particularly highlighting how rising costs have impacted project economics. His observation that copper’s incentive price has risen to the $6/lb range provides important context for understanding the challenges of bringing new supply online.

Dalton discusses several key catalysts in their portfolio including the Silicon gold project with AngloGold Ashanti, and Champion Iron’s Kami project. The conversation also includes a broader discussion of challenges facing mining project development in Canada and the evolving economics of the mining industry.
