Porphyry Deposits Throw Triple Winning Punch with Silver, Gold, Copper Deposits

It is expected that copper, silver and gold motherlodes will bring in huge returns if a commodity super cycle occurs. Motherlodes are principal zones or veins…

This upward momentum pushed copper prices to such a high degree they almost reached the $10,000 per metric ton mark that is expected to be supported through the rest of the year by impending copper shortages. Increased expectations of a…
