US – The Fed announced a change in the inflation targeting policy substituting a 2% target for an average of 2% allowing for inflation to overshoot for longer to “make up” for previous periods of weak levels.
Payroll Friday. Fed moves to average inflation goal
Monetary policy ultra-doves pushing Fed to change its target to 4% from 2%. It has, but by turning away from inflation toward employment.
The dovish shift indicates lower rates will be left in place for longer.
The Fed did n specify over what time period inflation will be averaged, but Jerome Powell said any overshooting would be “moderate” and would not last for long, FT reports.

Precious metals:
Gold US$1,945/oz vs US$1,939/oz yesterday - Gold price relatively unchanged this week as key drivers hang in the balance
The price of gold has risen 0.4% this week to $1,946/oz, after two straight weeks of losses.
Gold has swung wildly over the last few days, without an affirmative path north or south, as multiple factors come up against each other.
Prices rose 1% before Fed Chairman Powell’s speech, before declining 2% during the speech. Gold then rebounded 1% on Friday morning as the dollar retreated.
Despite the see-sawing in prices, fears of the economic impact of coronavirus and the loose monetary policy have been a source of constant support for the gold price over the last couple of months and were a key factor in gold’s rally over the $2000/oz mark.
Gold prices dipped on Monday as it was reported that the Trump administration are considering bypassing US regulatory standards to fast-track an experimental vaccine for coronavirus.
Given the level of support that uncertainty surrounding the longevity of the pandemic is giving to the gold price, updates and breakthroughs regarding a vaccine could cause the gold price to fall in the coming months.

Base metals:
Copper US$ 6,668/t vs US$6,569/t yesterday - Copper prices set for third straight weekly gain as inventories continue to fall
Copper prices continued to rise on Friday as traders interpreted a policy shift from the Fed, prioritising employment over inflationary targets.
This shift could result in a weaker US dollar and cheaper-dollar denominated prices- meaning base metals on the LME will be cheaper to holders of other currencies.
Three-month copper on the LME advanced 0.8% to $6,676/oz earlier this morning (Reuters), whilst prices in Shanghai settled 0.5% higher at 51,770 yuan/t in overnight trading (SMM News).
LME copper stocks have fallen sharply in recent months, as countries emerge from lockdown and kickstart manufacturing.
Stocks stood at just over 90,000t earlier this morning, the lowest level since 2005 and significantly lower than the 280,000t in May.
Aluminium US$ 1,784/t vs US$1,780/t yesterday - Japan aluminium shipments fall 20% YoY
Supply fell to 142,255 tonnes last month, the 12th straight month of YoY decline.
The Japan Aluminium Association cited weak demand as a result of coronavirus as the main reason for the drop.

WTI and Brent Crude Oil futures are inching lower in early trading today as traders continue to assess the potential impact of Hurricane Laura on offshore output in the Gulf of Mexico
Also helping to underpin prices is optimism over China/US trade talks
Further price support came from data from the API showing US crude oil stockpiles fell more than expected last week
The API confirmed another draw in crude oil inventories of 4.524MMbbls for the week ending 21 August
This came in higher than a consensus draw of 3.694MMbbls
In the previous week, the API reported a draw in crude oil inventories of 4.264MMbbls, after analysts had predicted a draw of 2.670Mbbls
Oil prices have failed to gain any real traction over the past month, even with OPEC’s historic production cut and production declines in the US, on the back of grim forecasts of subdued future oil demand in the coming months
Oil production declines in the US held steady this week, still down from a high of 13.1MMbopd in March US oil production currently sits at 10.7MMbopd as of 14 August according to the EIA
This represents a 2.4MMbopd loss that lends aid to OPEC’s efforts to curb production to regain market balance
Natural Gas US$2.710/mmbtu vs US$2.427/mmbtu yesterday
The natural gas markets have formed a massive move higher during the trading session yesterday, as the hurricane has hit the Gulf of Mexico
This of course has natural gas production cut quite drastically, so it makes sense that price would rally
Hurricane Laura has been downgraded to a category 1 storm after making landfall as a category 4 hurricane, which landed near Lake Charles Louisiana
Installations in the Gulf of Mexico are without manpower, having been halted which reduced the Gulf of Mexico production by 45%
The weather in the US mid-west is expected to be cooler than normal which should increase heating demand

Iron ore 62% Fe spot (cfr Tianjin) US$117.7/t vs US$119.8/t - Brazilian authorities seek $4.78bn Vale asset freeze
Authorities from Minas Gerais state are seeking a freeze on the assets as a partial payment from last year’s Brumadinho dam disaster.
State and federal prosecutors say they have sent a joint petition seeking a judge’s order for Vale to freeze its assets which will then be transferred to the state (Mining-Technology).
Last month, a Brazilian court ordered Vale to pay $1.47bn in damages from the disaster, and the government banned the construction of new upstream mining dams in February 2019.

California approves $437m electric charging infrastructure investment
California utility regulator announced yesterday that a $437m investment into electric vehicle chargers had been approved in the state.
The money will go to Southern California Edison (SCE) to install 40,000 EV charging stations across the state as part of a program called Charge Ready 2. At least half of the investment must go to low income communities or those impacted by air pollution with 30% dedicated to multifamily residences.
During the pilot phase of the project SCE has partnered with local governments and businesses to install 1800 EV chargers across 100 sites. (Gren Car Congress)
Up to March 2020 California had 6,835 charging stations and 28,545 charging outlets according to Statista. The state also had a significant lead over New York in 2nd place with 1720 charging stations and 4866 charging outlets.
Charge Ready 2 is an expansion of the Charge Ready program begun last year by SCE. This program committed to the build out of charging infrastructure for trucks, buses and off-road industrial equipment. The program will add charging support for 8490 medium to heavy duty vehicles over the next 5yrs.
The figures up to March 2020 show the scale of this investment and the State’s commitment to EV.
Nio returning to the market to take advantage of improved EV sentiment
Chinese EV maker is set to return to the market with a follow-on share offering in the US, looking to raise $1.7bn according to reports from the South China Morning Post.
The Company is reportedly offering 75m ADSs with an option for underwriters to sell an additional 11.25m to meet demand. Nio recently raised $428.4m from a follow on sales in June at $5.95/share.
The share price has since soared to $19.88 which could enable the Company to raise as much as $1.7bn in the latest round.
A Company spokesperson said Nio is seizing the moment to further enhance its cash reserves.

AfriTin (LON:ATM) – 2p, Mkt cap £17.5m –Uis mine contributes first concentrate sales to FY 2020 results
Reporting on what Chairman, Glen Parsons, describes as a transformational year, Afritin reports a loss of £1.83m for the year ending 29th February 2020 (2019 - £1.06m loss) and a year-end cash balance of approximately £575,000.
The company’s Uis tin mine in Namibia sold its first consignment of tin concentrate “shortly before year end” and is now described as “a fully-fledged operation”.
CEO, Anthony Viljoen commented that “the conclusion of our maiden sale of tin concentrate and dispatch of our second shipment of tin concentrate from the Uis mine. The first shipment of tin concentrate and first revenues from the Uis tin mine in three decades marks a significant milestone for the Company and the Erongo region of Namibia and has transformed us into a revenue-generating Company”.
The company reports that it has now started preliminary economic assessments for the Phase 2 development of Uis which comprises a staged series of expansions with a 50% increase to 120tph and which also envisages improved recovery rates of 70% for tin and a doubling of tantalum recovery rates to 30%.
The company confirms that “there continue to be no confirmed cases of COVID-19 at the Uis tin mine”.
The company has also, in a separate announcement, reported that non-executive director, Roger Williams, is to leave the board on 29th September “to pursue other business interests”. Afritin “has no immediate plans to appoint a replacement non-executive to the board of directors”.
Beowulf Mining (LON:BEM) 4.04p, Mkt cap £24m – Interim statement highlights progress
(Beowulf holds 46.1% of Vadar. Beowulf also holds 100% Kallak iron ore in Sweden, 100% of Aitolampi graphite in Finland and 40% of the Mitrovica and Viti projects in Kosovo. Beowulf has 67.09% of its share in the form of Swedish Depository Receipts with remaining shares held in the UK.)
Beowulf Mining report reduced Administrative expenses of £403,154 in the first half vs £450,129 a year ago
The company reports a before and after tax loss £394,475 for the half year after the receipt of modest finance and grant income
Cash: the company had £620,940 of cash at the end of the first half
Loan financing: Beowulf secured loan financing in Sweden of around £1.0m for the restart exploration works in Kosovo starting with Majdan Peak
Fennoscandian Resources (Finland): continues to work on the definition of natural flake graphite resources for Finland's emerging battery sector.
Kallak (Sweden): Beowulf continues to press the Swedish government on the hold up in the mining license for the Kallak high-grade, iron ore project in Sweden. The Swedish minister for Business, Industry and Innovation has been asked direct questions in parliament by a Moderate Party Member.
Beowulf is looking for clarity and transparency in the government’s response on when a decision on the license will be made.
The minister flannelled his answer claiming that the ‘Kallak case contains extensive data with several complex issues, such as trade-offs according to the Environmental Code between several different national interests’.
Beowulf awarded but later postponed a drilling contract for Kallak for the Autumn designed to see if the 3D model can be used to identify additional iron ore resources.
Kallak has a further Exploration Target of 90-100mt grading 22-30% iron and is also considering new processing options for Kallak ore.
Vadar (Kosovo): ·
Majdan Peak (Gold): A new lead-zinc-copper-gold target was identified to the south of Majdan Peak just 3km from the Stan Terg lead-zinc-silver mine which held 34mt grading 3.45% lead, 2.30% zinc and 80 g/t silver according to historical data. Grab rock samples grade up to 0.79 g/t gold
Vardar will shortly start flying ultra-detailed drone magnetic survey over Mitrovica, covering Majdan Peak first. Vardar has acquired the drone, sensors and support equipment and has developed flight automation software for flying accurate low-level survey lines across terrain.
The geophysics programme is being designed to map out alteration zones and identify potential structural controls to mineralisation, as well as full 3D IP/DC surveys designed to directly map sulphides and resistivity contrasts associated with mineralisation.
Mitrovica (near the Stan Terg lead-zinc-silver mine): potential for lead-zinc-silver deposits and maybe a high-level epithermal gold deposits and for copper-zinc deposits.
The targets may be related to a potentially much larger porphyry style mineralised system.
An extensive gold anomaly was identified over an area approximately 1400 metres x 700 metres, with individual soil samples returning up to 0.36g/t

Europa Metals Limited (LON:EUZ) 14.5p, Mkt Cap £1.5m – Metallurgical and ore-sorting results from the Toral zinc, lead, silver project in Spain
Metallurgical tests, conducted by Wardell Armstrong International, on three samples aimed to aid in flow-sheet development and provide basic processing information for engineering design have demonstrated zinc, lead and silver recovery rates described by the company as “excellent”.
Samples of high grade mineralisation designated TOD-025H generated 83.9% lead recovery and 87.7% recovery for both silver and zinc. A lower grade sample, TOD-025L produced recovery rates of 89.4% for silver, 81.5% for silver and 84.7% for zinc.
Tests on ore-sorting using TOD-025L enhanced recovery rates to 98% for lead, 94% for zinc and 82% for silver with 45-50% of waste rejected.
CEO, Laurence Read said that the tests “demonstrate excellent lead, zinc and silver recovery and grades for the Toral Project in addition to identifying certain economic benefits that could result from the implementation of ore sorting during potential future mining activities”.
Executive Chairman, Myles Campion, said that “Combining the ore sorting results with the very impressive lead concentrate grades achieved from the TOD-025 sample, we firmly believe that Europa Metals is continuing to demonstrate that Toral can provide a high-grade concentrate, whilst allowing for a flexible mining approach”.
The test results will be incorporated within the pre-feasibility work currently underway and in the updated economic model.
Glencore (LON:GLEN) 169p, Mkt cap #23bn - Glencore puts 7.1% Mopani stake on table in talks with the Zambian government
(First Quantum Minerals holds 16.9% of Mopani)
Zambia has a difficult relationship with Glencore as the company likes to switch on and off production at Mopani according to copper prices leaving the state to manage the fallout from the changing employment situation.
Zambia would naturally prefer to see steady employment and taxes from the higher-cost mines at Mopani and may ask for ZCCM-IH to operate the mine going forward.
The mine produced just 51,275t of finished copper cathode last year including copper from third party ores.
Glencore’s stake in Mopani is worth $514.6m according to its own valuation
Glencore wrote off $1.144bn at its interims leaving $704m of recoverable value
The mining complex has operating expenses of $931m
Mkango Resources* (LON:MKA) 5.75p, Mkt cap £7.7m – Ministerial visit to Songwe Hill underlines Government support for development.
(Mkango’s 75.5% subsidiary, Maginto Ltd holds a 25% stake in HyProMag which is a partner in the ‘Rare–Earth Recycling for E-Machines’ RaRE project)
In its Q2 results announcement Mkango Resources reports a visit, on 21st August, to the Songwe Hill project by Malawi’s Mines Minister and government officials during which the Minister commended the progress on project development as well as the transparency and corporate and social support provided by the project to Malawi and the local community.
Minister Rashid Gaffar said that he was impressed with progress and “You are doing a commendable job; people here are full of praise for your work. We understand you have invested a lot in this project, therefore as Government, my Ministry will support you so that the future mining operation commences”.
Principal Secretary at the Ministry, Dr. Joseph Mkandawire stated that “Mining is the future of this country, especially when we follow the trend where countries are advocating for use of clean energy. High strength rare earth magnets which will be made from the Songwe rare earths can be used to manufacture electric motors, which are used in hybrid and electric cars, as well as wind turbines to produce clean energy.”
Dr. Mkandawire also explained that “Currently, the mining industry in Malawi only contributes approximately 1 percent to the national budget, but we want to support the mining industry fully in Malawi, to enable the industry to generate a lot of revenue and profits, so that it can benefit the country and its investors, and we can all benefit from the country's resources."
In its interim report for the three and six months ending 30th June 2020 Mkango reports a quarterly loss of US$0.91m (2019 – US$0.37m loss) bringing the loss for the first 6 months of 2020 to US$2.44m (2019 – 1.06m loss) as Mkango continues to progress the feasibility study at Songwe Hill.
The company reports a 30th June 2020 cash balance of US$6.44m.
Feasibility work is continuing despite the constraints of Covid19 containment measures. A 60 tonnes bulk sample of material has been shipped from Songwe Hill to Australia for future metallurgical pilot test work.
“The pilot plant facility has been reviewed through a detailed tender process and has now been chosen. Metallurgical optimisation continues at laboratories in Australia. The work programme was scaled up … and is focused on flotation and hydrometallurgy”.
The environmental and social impact assessment work is “currently being completed in accordance with World Bank Standards and Equator Principles”.
Commenting on the impact of Covid19, Mkango Resources says that “Whilst the Feasibility Study on Songwe Hill is continuing with work underway in Australia, South Africa and the UK, the Company believes that some work streams may still be impacted, however the degree of impact is currently uncertain … [although] … The Company is now targeting completion of the Feasibility Sudy in the second half of 2021”.
Conclusion: Important messages of support from government both for the Songwe Hill project and the wider development of Malawi’s minerals industry indicate a constructive working relationship between Mkango Resources and Malawi which should be beneficial to the project’s development as the feasibility work moves towards completion in the second half of 2021.

Renascor Resources (ASX:RNU) A$0.014p, Mkt Cap A$18.7m – Induced polarization survey confirms untested shallow gold targets at Soyuz
An IP survey has indicated the presence of anomalies in an untested geochemically anomalous zone approximately 500m along strike from previous Soyuz drilling, a prospect located in South Australia’s Central Gawler Craton.
Previous drilling at Soyuz has intersected shallow gold, with results including:
7m @ 5.14g/t Au from 26m to end of hole, including 2m @ 16.42 g/t Au from 30m; and
6m @ 4.94g/t Au from 14m.
The IP targets are shallow and significant in scale (up to 8 mV/V times background). They exhibit chargeability and resistivity signatures typical of sulphide-bearing mineralisation.
The company is currently seeking approvals to commence drilling at Soyuz, with planned programmes expected to include drill testing of the existing gold zone, the IP anomaly and additional targets that may be identified from upcoming infill soil sampling and ground geophysical surveys.
