Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed Gord Neal, President, CEO and Director of World Copper LTD.
On a recent Price of Business show, Host Kevin Price interviewed Gord Neal, President, CEO and Director of World Copper LTD., an oxide copper-focused exploration, development, and production company with two proven resources, one in Arizona and one in Chile, about President Trump’s new executive order to increase America’s mineral production.
In the executive order, the President highlighted the past prominence of the U.S. mining industry and the importance of securing a stable and predictable supply of critical minerals, including copper, which is vital to the nation’s defense, technology and infrastructure sectors. It also directed Federal agencies to expedite approvals for domestic mineral production projects.
“President Trump’s latest executive order aims to supercharge U.S. mineral production, ensuring a stable supply of critical minerals like copper —vital for national security, technology, and infrastructure,” saysNeal, who has extensive experience in the metals and mining sector as well as in capital markets having raised over $500M for various resource companies.
“Blue and red states are ‘green’ for home-grown energy resources which offer not only a roadmap to energy independence but also outstanding employment opportunities in the burgeoning cleantech economy. America’s economic growth and international competitiveness will be the model every global citizen will look to emulate” adds Neal, an editorial contributor on the politics of energy metals.
“The record surge in US copper prices underscores the metal’s undeniable strategic value,” says Neal. “With potential tariffs on the horizon and supply chain disruptions, we are witnessing a fundamental shift in market dynamics. This volatility reinforces the need for North American supply security.”
Price noted that with the huge number of executive orders, and many of them being challenged as potentially unconstitutional, it will be interesting to see if there are any challenges to this particular one.
