We dont all know that at all about China and the copper price! While long term copper is a very good bet, especially copper from a friendly country like Canada, commodity prices often take a hit once the market figures out a recession is real. Recession = lower demand. I could quite easily see copper dropping temporarily to March 2020 levels. The question is, how is RMM placed to deal with such a drop, the duration of which might be 6m - 12m. We dont know the numbers, but what we do know is RMM has been cash positive (at the higher prices), they have a forward contract for the gold which is cash generative, and they are paying one of their main contracters in equity, not cash. So I am hopeful RMM can make it through H1 2023, for a serious blast upwards thereafter, without having to dilute. There is still a chance the drop will not happen as copper will be in demand by governments for the green agenda. Furthermore, Chile is a little unstable at the moment. I think RMM remains an excellent bet, with up to £2 share price realistic in 3-5 years.
