We looked at an article “Road Bumps and Opportunities on the Way to a Cleaner Future” by John Cowling which covered seventy three countries including Australia which have targeted net zero emissions before 2050. In the article the last point listed was key minerals required to achieve this target which included lithium, nickel and rare earths.
The second article we looked at was “Four Key Materials for Batteries – and Nine companies that will benefit”. We studied the nine companies listed including what materials they were exploring for and where, the current price of shares in the company, and the yield the company was returning to shareholders.
The final meeting of Investment for 2021 will be held on Monday 6th December 2021 at 1.30pm in the U3A room at the Seniors Centre.
