Mineral prices are on their way to settle in 2025. And silver can surprise the markets

The prices of the basic minerals for stability are on the way during the next year, but Silver can surprise the markets with the high price due to the increase in the expected demand, according to Peter Thomas, the president of “Ausecure”, a US company specializing in the sale and selling of minerals. According to the World Bank, the prices of minerals will see stability during the coming year, and it could fall by 3% in 2026, expecting that the growth of industrial activity is expected in the most important economies. Peter added today during an interview on the “Evening Session” program on “Al -Sharq” channel today that the market expectations vary with regard to the prices of minerals, while emphasizing that gold will remain a safe haven and that its price is high in the light of geopolitical tensions in the world. ” Trump and the price of gold, the price of the yellow metal approached 2615 dollars per ounce after closing it 0.4% on Monday. Gold is supported by US financial facilitation, the demand for precious metal as a safe haven and purchases by central banks. But the increase has recently delayed with the rise of the dollar after Trump was elected. On the other hand, Moody notes that capital expenditure to minerals and mining companies will remain high in 2025 due to investment in reducing carbon emissions, while Fitch says that the growth for basic minerals in China and the rest of the world will be more balanced in the next year. It will lower interest rates in Europe to support the center of the dollar, which, according to Peter, could threaten the position of gold. He added: “The strong dollar is a bad case for gold, we see extensive fluctuations because of some events, but I think we will see stability in the prices of minerals and less movement in the markets.” The prices of basic minerals have risen greatly with the rise of global stock indicators after reports of the policy makers study in China to strengthen bond sales. Nickel, zinc and aluminum prices rose by more than 1% on the London metal stock exchange, and copper prices also rose at the beginning of the week, while Silver scored a $ 30.28 price at the end of the day. The silver share is expected to reach 70% in industrial practices, compared to 50% currently. Peter said in this regard: “We will see great heights that we have not seen in the past through the demand for silver because it is used in computers, industrial applications, electrical transformers and many products that will be great demand.”
