Supply and Demand

Ferro-Alloy and Eurasia Mining:High-Potential Mining InvestmentsIn the volatile world of mining, where geopolitical risks and market fluctuations often overshadow opportunities, two companies stand out for their potential to deliver significant returns: Ferro-Alloy Resources and Eurasia Mining. Both are focused on critical minerals-vanadium and platinum group metals (PGMs), respectively-that are essential for the global energy transition. With ambitious projects, strong financial backing, and strategic positioning in emerging markets, they offer investors a unique chance to capitalize on the growing demand for these resources. However, their path to success is fraught with challenges, including regulatory hurdles and operational risks. I suggest exploring the investment potential of these companies, including their strengths, opportunities, and risks, of course. Because where can we step without potential risks today? Ferro-Alloy Resources: A Rising Star in Vanadium Ferro-Alloy Resources (FERRO-LSE:FAR), dual-listed on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) and the Astana International Exchange (AIX), is developing the Balasausqandiq vanadium deposit in Southern Kazakhstan. With a market capitalization of $66 million and net debt of $13 million, Ferro-Alloy is well-positioned to benefit from the rising demand for vanadium, which is used in energy storage and steel production. The Balasausqandiq project is unique due to its potential for the lowest cash-cost vanadium production in the industry. A phased development plan, supported by a robust financial model, promises an impressive internal rate of return (IRR) of 30%. This high return is driven by low operating costs and vanadium’s strategic importance to the renewable energy transition. Specifically, vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) are expected to see exponential growth as large-scale energy storage becomes critical for integrating wind and solar power. The company’s shareholder base includes Vision Blue Resources with a 22.9% stake, providing capital and strategic guidance from industry veterans. Leadership, including CEO Nicholas Bridgen, brings decades of experience in mining and finance. However, the project’s location in Kazakhstan, while relatively geopolitically stable, carries risks of regulatory changes and infrastructure development. Additionally, reliance on external financing could expose the company to market volatility. Nevertheless, Ferro-Alloy’s potential is clear. As vanadium demand is likely to outstrip supply by 2030, the Balasausqandiq project could position the company as a key player in the global market. For investors willing to embrace the risks, Ferro-Alloy offers an attractive opportunity to invest in a critical mineral with a bright future. Eurasia Mining: A Future Leader in PGM Extraction Eurasia Mining LSE:EUA , listed on London’s AIM market, focuses on a portfolio of PGM and nickel projects in the Arctic region. With a market capitalization of around $100 million, the company has garnered attention for its plans to revive the Monchetundra and NKT projects, which together hold over 184.6 million ounces of platinum equivalent. The company’s strategy has shifted toward selling these assets - a process initiated in 2020. Recent geopolitical developments have rekindled interest in Eurasia’s projects. According to Oak Securities , the target price for the company’s shares is six times the current level, reflecting their immense potential. The flagship NKT project is a Tier-1 nickel sulfide deposit with a net present value (NPV) ranging from $1.2 to $1.7 billion (per a 2021 report). The project benefits from proximity to a major processing plant, reducing capital expenditures. Additionally, the West Kytlim project in the Urals is already operational and generating cash flow. However, investing in Eurasia Mining comes with risks. The company’s assets are located in a region with geopolitical challenges. Despite signs of potential collaboration on critical minerals, the situation remains unstable. Potential regulatory changes, international trade restrictions, or political upheavals could derail the company’s plans. Price volatility in commodities and operational complexities also pose challenges. Despite these hurdles, Eurasia’s growth potential is pretty promising. A dual listing on the AIX in Kazakhstan opens access to investors from various regions, potentially boosting liquidity and valuation. For investors with a high risk tolerance, Eurasia Mining offers a rare opportunity to tap into the PGM and nickel markets. Balancing Risks and Opportunities Both Ferro-Alloy Resources and Eurasia Mining present compelling investment prospects, but with several notable risks, of course. Ferro-Alloy’s success hinges on widespread VRFB adoption, while Eurasia Mining must navigate Russia’s geopolitical challenges. For people, whose attention has been caught by these companies, the key to success lies in understanding these risks and balancing them against potential rewards. Diversification, thorough analysis, and a long-term perspective are essential when investing in mining companies, especially in emerging markets. But for those, willing to take the leap, these companies may offer unique opportunities in the critical minerals sector.

XAU/USD 10 June 2025 Intraday AnalysisH4 Analysis: -> Swing: Bullish. -> Internal: Bullish. Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 23 April 2025 Price has now printed a bearish CHoCH according to my analysis yesterday. Price is now trading within an established internal range. Intraday Expectation: Price to trade down to either discount of internal 50% EQ, or H4 demand zone before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,500.200. Note: The Federal Reserve’s sustained dovish stance, coupled with ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, is likely to prolong heightened volatility in the gold market. Given this elevated risk environment, traders should exercise caution and recalibrate risk management strategies to navigate potential price fluctuations effectively. Additionally, gold pricing remains sensitive to broader macroeconomic developments, including policy decisions under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic directives could further amplify uncertainty, contributing to market repricing dynamics. H4 Chart: M15 Analysis: -> Swing: Bullish. -> Internal: Bearish. Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 22 May 2025. In my analysis from 12 May 2025, I noted that price had yet to target the weak internal high, including on the H4 timeframe. This aligns with the ongoing corrective bearish pullback across higher timeframes, so a bearish internal Break of Structure (iBOS) was a likely outcome. As anticipated, price targeted strong internal low, confirming a bearish iBOS. Price has remained within the internal range for an extended period and has yet to target the weak internal low. A contributing factor could be the bullish nature of the H4 timeframe's internal range, which has reacted from a discounted level at 50% of the internal equilibrium (EQ). Intraday Expectation: Technically price to continue bullish, react at either premium of internal 50% EQ or M15 demand zone before targeting weak internal low priced at 3,120.765. Alternative scenario: Price can be seen to be reacting at discount of 50% EQ on H4 timeframe, therefore, it is a viable alternative that price could potentially print a bullish iBOS on M15 timeframe. Note: Gold remains highly volatile amid the Federal Reserve's continued dovish stance and persistent geopolitical uncertainties. Traders should implement robust risk management strategies and remain vigilant, as price swings may become more pronounced in this elevated volatility environment. Additionally, President Trump’s recent tariff announcements are expected to further amplify market turbulence, potentially triggering sharp price fluctuations and whipsaws. M15 Chart:

The golden direction after non-agricultural 💡Strategy Review Gold fell sharply from a high on Friday. We insisted on high shorts. Although gold seemed to rebound strongly, it quickly fell back under pressure at 3375. Gold continued to short at 3370 and fell before the non-farm payrolls. Gold was bearish on the US non-farm payrolls. Gold continued to short at 3365 and finally fell sharply. Gold continued its two consecutive wins at high altitudes on Friday. Although gold has not reached our second target, it has fallen perfectly to our first target, and there is also room for profit of $70. So what will be the trend of gold in the future? At present, the short trend of gold is still strong. If it continues to fall below 3290 after opening, there will be a lot of room for further decline. 📊Technical aspects The gold 1-hour moving average has formed a dead cross downward, so gold still has downward momentum. After the gold 1-hour high box oscillation, gold finally fell below the box, indicating that the gold short position is better. Then the bottom of the gold box has now formed resistance, and the short-term 3340 line of gold has formed resistance to gold. If gold is under pressure at 3340 at the beginning of next week, then gold can continue to be short. 💰 Strategy Package Short Position：3330-3340

The trend after the surge in crude oil prices 💡Message Strategy Core economic data and event-driven The US employment report boosted expectations of rate cuts. According to the US Department of Labor, the unemployment rate stabilized at 4.2% in May, and 139,000 new non-farm jobs were added (the previous value was revised down). Phil Flynn, senior analyst at Price Futures Group, pointed out: "The employment data is 'just right', neither too hot nor too cold, but it strengthens the possibility of the Fed's rate cut." The expectation of a rate cut is seen as a potential positive for the crude oil market, as loose policies may stimulate economic recovery and boost oil demand. OPEC+ moderately increased production to balance market expectations. OPEC+ reached an agreement on Saturday to increase production by 411,000 barrels per day in July, which is lower than Saudi Arabia's proposal, but in line with market expectations. HSBC analysts believe: "Summer oil demand will peak in July-August, matching the increase in OPEC+ supply, and the market supply and demand will tend to balance in the second and third quarters." The decision did not suppress oil prices, but instead eased concerns about oversupply. 📊Technical aspects WTI crude oil: closed at $64.73 per barrel on Friday, up 2.21% on the day and 6.55% this week. It is about to reach our strategic target of 65.00. When everyone is looking at the decline of crude oil, our strategy is firmly on the rise, and the result is consistent with our direction. From a technical perspective, the daily chart of US crude oil (WTI) shows that the price is running in a short-term rising channel, with support at around $63, while the upper resistance is concentrated in the $64.50 area. In recent trading days, WTI has received support at the 60-day moving average and successfully broke through the 20-day moving average, indicating that the short-term bullish momentum is gradually increasing. At the same time, the MACD indicator shows a golden cross signal, and the momentum column continues to expand, indicating that the price is expected to further test the $65 mark. If the resistance level can be effectively broken, the next target may be $67. 💰 Strategy Package Long Position: 63.50-64.00
