No matter which type of electric vehicle you’re looking at, it’s going to use much more copper than a traditional vehicle with an internal combustion engine. Here’s the breakdown of copper usage for each type of vehicle:
- Internal combustion engine: 23 kg. of copper
- Hybrid electric vehicle: 40 kg. of copper
- Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle: 60 kg. of copper
- Battery electric vehicle: 83 kg. of copper
- Hybrid electric bus: 89 kg. of copper
- Battery-powered electric bus: 224 to 369 kg. of copper

The math adds up to a potentially significant increase in the price of copper. By 2027, an estimated 27 million electric vehicles will be on the roads. This could raise copper demand for electric vehicles to 1.74 million metric tons in 2027.
Besides, copper won’t only be required for the vehicles themselves because each electric vehicle charger will add 0.7 kg. of copper. Fast chargers can actually add up to 8 kg. of copper each. Technology improvements, increased affordability, and the deployment of more electric chargers should have a profound and positive impact on the demand for copper.
We’re already seeing the signs of a long-term breakout because copper reached its highest price in eight years in December of 2020. With the demand driven by the renaissance in electric vehicles and chargers, copper’s bull cycle might be set to match or exceed those of gold and silver.
Another price driver for copper will be China’s economic recovery, as that nation is copper’s biggest consumer.
Along with those factors, copper will serve as an essential component in renewable green energy. Copper is highly conductive, so it’s used in renewable energy systems to generate power from solar, hydro, thermal, and wind energy around the world.
Furthermore, copper is one of the few materials that can be recycled 100% over and over again without a loss in performance. There are clean energy initiatives not only in the United States, but also in China and other developing nations.
We’ve already witnessed government proposals that would have the U.S. spending as much as $2 trillion to improve roads, bridges, and seaports; incentivize solar panels and other clean energy sources; add electric vehicle charging stations; convert school buses to zero emissions; and other changes that all translate to a copper-friendly market environment.
Additionally, not long ago, the International Lead and Zinc Study Group estimated that global mined zinc production would shrink 4.4% to 12.33 million metric tons in 2020. This meaningful supply deficit is largely a result of the supply chain disruptions to copper mining operations around the world.
The world’s second-largest economy plays a significant role here again. Refined zinc output in China, the world’s top producer, fell to 562,300 tons in November of 2020, down by 6,900 tons from October.
Also skewing the balance for copper is a pickup in Chinese demand as the country’s industrial activity continues to recover post-COVID. The country’s manufacturing PMI recently touched a two-year high and China accounts for about 50% of global zinc consumption.
In assessing zinc’s path to higher prices, the narrative echoes that of copper in many respects. Thus, as Helen O’Cleary of CRU Group explains, “Zinc has traded in tandem with copper this year, and commodities markets across the board have benefited from a weaker US dollar, huge stimulus and more recently the COVID-19 vaccine rollout.”
President, CEO, and Director Max Porterfield has built a multi-mineral developer; 28% of Callinex shares are owned by management and associates while another 21% are held by institutional and family offices.
The company’s projects are located across three world-class mining districts in Canada, each with impressive stats:
- Pine Bay project in the Flin Flon Mining District, Manitoba:
- Previously explored by Place Dome in the 1990s, where the company had a mandate to discover a 30-million ton volcanogenic massive sulfide deposit
- An emerging high-grade copper discovery with gold, silver and zinc, named the Rainbow Discovery is being expanded;
- The Rainbow discovery is located within a mineral lease adjacent to a high-voltage power line and historic shaft with direct road access to processing facilities
- Nash Creek project in the Bathurst Mining District, New Brunswick
- Two emerging near surface silver discoveries 6.8 km apart and in close proximity to Nash Creek zinc/lead/silver deposit
- The Nash Creek deposit hosts an indicated resource containing 963 million pounds of zinc equivalent contained within 13.6 million tons grading 3.2% zinc equivalent and an inferred resource containing 407 million pounds of zinc equivalent contained within 5.9 million tons grading 3.1% zinc equivalent
- World-class infrastructure including highway and transmission lines 1 km from deposit and seaport, smelter, railway, and power plant less than 25 km by road
- Point Leamington project in the Buchans Mining District, Newfoundland
- A previously reported historical inferred mineral resource of 14.1 million tons grading 6.2% zinc equivalent including 1.86% zinc, 1.07 grams per metric ton of gold, 17.12 grams per metric ton of silver, and 0.42% copper, containing 577 million pounds of zinc, 484,000 ounces of gold, 7,755,000 ounces of silver, and 130 million pounds of copper*
- The deposit starts at the surface and extends to a vertical depth of 350m, where high-grade mineralization is open for expansion
- A number of regional isolated airborne electromagnetic geophysical targets have been identified for follow-up
All of these assets are situated in regions with convenient access to power, water, roads, and processing facilities in major mining-friendly districts. Typically, the local governments gladly accommodate mining businesses, since the community is dependent on the jobs that a company like Callinex looks to create.
* CEO Max Porterfield noted the impressive rise in Callinex stock (900% appreciation since bottoming).
* Mr. Porterfield also highlighted key discoveries across Callinex’s robust project portfolio, as a driver of growth for both the company and the share price. Callinex released the details of the high-grade copper results with gold, silver, and zinc from the ongoing drilling campaign to expand the Rainbow discovery at Flin Flon:
As related in the press release, the company intersected the orange zone of the Rainbow discovery with 5.00m of 10.63% copper equivalent comprised of 8.79% copper, 1.38 grams per metric ton of gold, 24.02 grams per metric ton of silver, and 1.79% zinc.

Callinex furthermore intersected the yellow zone with 5.40m of 4.43% copper equivalent comprised of 3.22% copper, 0.61 grams per metric ton of gold, 10.43 grams per metric ton of silver, and 1.84% zinc.
Callinex has also received a $300,000 grant from the Manitoba Mineral Development Fund (overseen by the Manitoba Chamber of Commerce) to advance the Rainbow discovery.
Manitoba Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Chuck Davidson clearly views the grant as an investment in the local economy. “Northern Manitoba has been through a lot over the past few years. Callinex is a great partner and their team is extremely passionate about our province. We look forward to continuing to work with them on this exciting project that shows strong potential to bring jobs and prosperity to the Flin Flon area,” he stated.
The Rainbow discovery was a pivotal highlight in 2020; Callinex Mines also elaborated on their progress at the Nash Creek project. After reprocessing and interpreting a previous geophysical survey conducted at the site, Callinex significantly enhanced its drill targets along the trend of silver discoveries at Nash Creek.
As the update revealed, Callinex identified numerous conductive drill targets along the 6.8 km trend between the two discovery holes at Nash Creek. Moreover, the company announced two recent silver discoveries: one drill hole intersecting 28.6m of 57 grams per metric ton of silver including 16.5m of 94 grams per metric ton of silver and another drill hole intersecting 19m of 36.53 grams per metric ton of silver, plus 0.52% lead and 0.38% zinc; those discoveries were made before the airborne targets were later identified.

Mining Disclosure
The Company’s publications often pertain to gold and mining stocks, which discuss a direct relationship between the price of gold or silver and the stock price of a gold or silver mining stock. We discuss with respect to various issuers that there is a relationship between the price of gold or silver to the stock price of a gold or silver mining stock, i.e. that the higher the price of gold or silver, the higher the price of the stock. You should use extreme caution in adopting any such conclusions, because such statements do not account for any of the following factors:
- The stage of mining that the public company is engaged in, i.e. whether they are simply an exploration company and have not entered actual mining operations.
- Whether the then current financial condition of the mining company permits such company to have the necessary capital to conduct exploration and/or mining activities.
- The need for financing for exploration and/or mining activities and the possible inability to obtain such financing at all or on acceptable terms or that does not cause significant dilution to shareholders’ interests.
- Estimates of proven and probable reserves and mineralized material are subject to significant uncertainty, including a determination that the estimated reserves of mineralized material become uneconomical.
- Status of the worldwide economy
- Development of mineral properties is inherently risky and could lead to unproductive properties and is subject to the ability of the mining operator obtaining the necessary capital investments
- Whether additional exploration is required if reserves are not located on already acquired properties, which would negatively impact the financial condition of such gold or silver company or properties or mining operations
- Failure to comply with regulatory requirements
Whether the public company is a development stage company - Mining operations are subject to the risks of increasing operating and capital risks that adversely affect results of operations
- Potential delays, cost overruns, shortages of material or labor, construction defects
Readers should view statements that state that stock prices will be track gold or silver prices with extreme caution and do their research into the Issuer’s or operator’s financial performance, estimated exploration, extraction and production costs, financial condition, stage of exploration and mining, whether its operations are contingent upon financing. Mining operations are subject to innumerable risks and high rates of failure and create a direct relationship between the price of gold or silver and a gold or silver public company in the absence of other factors is misleading, i.e. stage of exploration or mining, financial condition, all operations contingent on financing, high rate of failure of mining operations.
Accordingly, do not rely upon any claimed relationship between the price of gold and silver and the stock price of a gold and/or silver company, and conduct your own research using reliable sources.
Statements contained in our publications that discuss increases in stock prices of mining stocks over a specified period of time that we do designate reflects an arbitrary period of time and does not take into consideration the inherent and specific risk of mining ventures and possible price volatility of a mining stock. Therefore, these statements should not be relied upon. Do your own research from reliable sources. The foregoing also applies to statements in our publication regarding mining test results and their implications, and references to individuals or entities making significant investments in the companies being profiled. Conduct research from reliable sources, including public reports filed by the mining company with regulatory authorities.
Penny Stock Disclosure
Many of the securities we profile are considered penny stocks. Penny stocks inherently involve high risk and price volatility. You may lose your entire investment in any penny stock that you invest in. You should be acutely aware of the following information and risks inherent in any penny stock investment that you may make, including any issuer profiled on our websites or otherwise: (a) we receive monetary or securities compensation from persons that claim they are a non-affiliate shareholder or an issuer; however, we conduct no due diligence whatsoever to determine whether in fact they are a non-affiliate; (b) there is an inherent conflict of interest between our information dissemination services involving various issuers and our receipt of compensation from those same issuers; (c) we may buy and sell securities in the securities that we provide information dissemination services, which may cause significant volatility in the issuer’s stock, price declines from our selling activities, permit us to make substantial profits while we are disseminating profiles or information about the issuer, yet may result in a diminished value to the stock for investors; (c) we conduct no due diligence on the content of our Publications; (d) Penny stocks are subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules and subject broker-dealers to customer suitability rules and other requirements, which may lead to low volume in the securities and/or difficulties in selling the shares; (e) penny stocks are often thinly traded or have low trading volume, which may lead to difficulties in selling your securities and extreme price volatility; (f) many of the penny stocks we profile or provide information about are subject to intense competition, extreme regulatory oversight and inadequate financing to pursue their operational plan; (g) the issuer profiles and information we provide is wholly insufficient to formulate an investment decision and should not be used in any way as a basis for making an investment decision and, at the most, it should be used a starting point from which you conduct an in-depth investigation of the issuer from available public sources, such as www.sec.gov, www otcmarkets.com, www.sec.gov, yahoofinance.com, www.google.com and other available public sources as well as consulting with your financial professional, investment adviser, registered representative with a registered securities broker-dealer; (h) we urge you to conduct an in-depth investigation of the issuer from the above or other available sources, especially because we only present positive information, which is an insufficient basis to invest in any stock, yet alone a penny stock; accordingly, you should proceed with such investigation to determine, among other things, information pertaining to the issuer’s financial condition, operations, business model, and risks involved in the issuer’s business; (i) the issuers we profile may have negative signs on the otcmarkets.com website (i.e. Stop Sign, No Information, Limited Information, Caveat Emptor), which you should determine from entering the symbol of the stock profiled into the otcmarkets.com website; (j) you should determine whether the issuer we profile or provide information about is a development stage company, which is subject to the risks of a development stage company in a similar such business, including difficulties in obtaining financing for operations and future growth; (k) because we only present positive information regarding an issuer, ; you should conduct an in-depth investigation of any possible negative factors regarding such issuer; (l) our information is “as is” and you your use of the information is at your own risk and such information may change at any time and it is not based upon any verification or due diligence of the statements made; (m) we state that profiled stocks are consistent with future economic trends; however, future economic trends or analysis has its own limitations, including: (i) due to the complexity of economic analysis as well as the individual financial and operational characteristics of an individual issuer, such economic trends or predictions may amount to nothing more than speculation; (ii) consumers, producers, investors, borrowers, lenders and government may react in unforeseen ways and be affected by behavioral biases; (iii) human and social factors may outweigh future economic trends and predictions that we state may or will occur; (iv) clear cut economic predictions have their limitations in that they do not account for the fundamental uncertainty in economic life, as well as ordinary life; (v) economic trends may be disrupted by sudden jumps, disruptions or other factors that are not accounted for in such economic trends analysis; in other words, past or present data predicting future economic trends may become irrelevant in light of fully new circumstances and situations in which uncertainty becomes reality rather than of predictive economic quality; (vi) if the trends involves a single result, it ignores all other scenarios that may be crucial to make a decision in the event of various contingencies; (n) the information we disseminate about issuers contain forward looking statements, i.e. statements or discussions that constitute predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, estimates, projections as indicated by such words as “expects”, “will”, “anticipates”, “estimates; therefore, you should proceed with extreme caution in relying upon such statements and conduct a full investigation into any such forward looking statements; (o) forward looking statements are limited to the time period in which they are made and we do not undertake to update forward looking statements that may change at any time; and (p) we make statements in our profiles that an issuer’s stock price has increased over a certain period of time; however, these statements only reflects an arbitrary period of time, and is of little or no predictive or analytical quality.
