Patricia Mohr, vice-president economics and commodity market specialist at Scotiabank in Toronto, will release her metal price forecasts for 2015 in her annual year-end report just before Christmas. But she agreed to share some of her thoughts on base metals, gold and uranium a little beforehand with The Northern Miner.
The Northern Miner: Some people seem to think 2015 will be a write off for mining and metals and don't expect a recovery until mid-2016 or even 2017. What are your views?
Patricia Mohr: I'm a little bit more optimistic for the base metals. In fact, I think when you look at the average prices this year you'll discover that prices late this year are actually higher for most of the base metals than they were late last year. The one exception to that is copper, which is a little lower than it was in late 2013.
