Platinum appears to be joining the party. Moving up after a dreary period when companion Palladium has been rocking for months while Platinum has struggled.
I have always struggled to find a way to invest in both these metals. Deposits rich in both metals are very hard to find and finance.
One way might be Sibanye. It's a big South African producer that bought Stillwater and recently bought Lonmin. That made it the largest platinum producer in the world and 3rd biggest in Palladium. In addition, they produce a lot of gold. The strike this year in South Africa hurt gold production badly. Production is now recovering and the consolidation with Lonmin is progressing.
