Is the Mining Bull Market Almost Over? I asked 5 Experts in Beaver Creek

Recorded on location at the Precious Metals Summit in Beaver Creek, Colorado (Sept 9–12, 2025).

I had five conversations with fund managers, analysts, and operators on where we are in the mining equity cycle, what outperforms from here, and how to avoid getting bucked off the bull. No fluff and no silly price targets. Just the real drivers of returns.

What you might learn by watching this:

  • Cycle placement:
    Are we mid-cycle or late? Signals that actually matter (breadth, financing quality, M&A cadence, margins, etc).
  • Metals outlook:
    Gold, silver, copper, uranium, or something else? What has torque and what has durability?
  • Equities roadmap:
    Producers, developers, explorecos, or something else? When do you rotate and when do you sit on your hands?
  • Capital & costs: Financing window quality, capex creep, labor/energy FX, and where cost curves break.
  • Jurisdiction risk: How political risk is (mis)priced and where the catch-up trades live.
  • Catalysts checklist: What must be true for rerates in Q4–Q2 (resources, de-risking, permits, offtakes, project finance).
