Teck Resources (TSX: TECK.A; NYSE: TECK) said a mechanical issue at its Carmen de Andacollo open-pit mine in Chile will force production to be halted for about a month. The unplanned downtime – caused by a maintenance shutdown of the SAG mill – will have no material impact on 2025 output, Teck said Monday in a statement. Carmen de Andacollo will mitigate the effect of the interruption by rescheduling some plant maintenance work to coincide with the halt, Teck said. Teck said it expects Carmen de Andacollo, which accounts for about 10% of consolidated 2025 copper output, to produce 45,000 to 55,000 tonnes of the metal this year as forecast. One month of unplann…

Teck Resources (TSX: TECK.A, TECK.B)(NYSE: TECK), Canada’s largest diversified miner, has deferred major expansion projects while it works to fix output problems at its flagship Quebrada Blanca (QB) copper mine in Chile. A major overhaul of the mine high in the Andes came in $4 billion over budget and years behind schedule. In July, chief executive officer Jonathan Price was forced to cut production guidance. The main issue now is tailings storage. The decision is part of a comprehensive operational review that was launched in August and is set to conclude in October, with a focus on improving performance. This review includes a detailed action plan for QB. Th…

Teck Resources (TSX: TECK.A, TECK.B)(NYSE: TECK) has secured an environmental assessment certificate to extend the life of its Highland Valley Copper (HVC) mine in British Columbia, keeping Canada’s largest copper operation running into the mid-2040s. The Vancouver-based miner expects the expansion to support an average annual production of 137,000 tonnes of copper over the mine’s remaining lifespan. Construction preparation will begin shortly, with a final investment decision expected from Teck’s board in the third quarter of 2025, president and chief executive officer Jonathan Price said in a statement.

Teck Resources (TSX: TECK.A/TECK.B) is said to be weighing up options to expand its production of germanium, a strategic metal used in chipmaking, a company representative told Reuters on Friday. According to Doug Brown, Teck’s VP of communications and government affairs, the miner is currently in funding talks with both the Canadian and US governments to improve its germanium production capabilities. Germanium is one of 50 minerals identified by the US Geological Survey that are critical to America’s economy and national security. The metal is used to make semiconductors and infrared technology, as well as fibre optic cables and solar cells. China currently c…

Teck Resources (TSX: TECK.A, TECK.B)(NYSE: TECK) has lowered its copper production guidance for 2025 after persistent setbacks at its Quebrada Blanca (QB) mine in Chile and Highland Valley Copper (HVC) operation in Canada. The company, which in September agreed to a $53-billion merger with Anglo American (LON: AAL), stressed that the deal’s strategic rationale remains intact. Teck reported QB copper output of 39,600 tonnes and sales of 43,900 tonnes in the third quarter. Annual production guidance for 2025 has been cut to between 170,000 and 190,000 tonnes, down from 210,000–230,000 tonnes, after extended downtime to raise the tailings dam crest. Forecast out…

Teck Resources (TSX: TECK.A, TECK.B)(NYSE: TECK) said on Monday its Quebrada Blanca (QB) mine in Chile is showing signs of recovery, following months of underperformance that raised questions about the mine’s viability and future role in the company’s $53 billion merger with Anglo American (LON: AAL). The Canadian miner noted that mill throughput and copper recoveries at QB are now tracking in line with expectations, thanks to an action plan launched in August. The improvement follows a broader operational review begun in September, aimed at stabilizing the ramp-up of its flagship copper expansion project. The “QB Action Plan” included upgrades to tailings infrast…

Telcoin is trending, adding 30% in the past 48 hours. Will TEL crypto break higher? Demand stems from positive regulatory developments in the United States. The GENIUS Act was approved in the Senate and will likely find support in the House. By 2030, Citi projects the global stablecoin market to reach $3.7 trillion, with a conservative estimate of $1.6 trillion if traction is slower than expected. Meanwhile, Ark Invest forecasts stablecoins to hit $1.4 trillion by the same period. On the other hand, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is confident the industry could surge above $2 trillion by 2028. The approval from the state of Nebraska came in April and follow…

Overview: The US dollar is mostly firmer today against the G10 currencies, but exceptions are notable. The yen is rising for the third consecutive session, apparently boosted by calls from the US Treasury Secretary for the Bank of Japan to raise rates. The Norwegian krone is slightly higher after the central bank kept rates steady and indicated another rate cut would be forthcoming this year. Sterling is the other exception to the greenback's bounce today after a stronger headline Q2 GDP lifted by government spending. The US dollar is firmer against most emerging market currencies. Intervention by Hong Kong Monetary Authority to defend the peg helped the HK dollar tick up…

The only event on Monday was the first step toward establishing a temporary truce between Democrats and Republicans aimed at ending the record U.S. "shutdown." This lengthy phrasing describes what transpired on the first day of the week. Many market participants were quick to celebrate this event, but it is not entirely clear what they now expect from the dollar. If they expect a new increase in value, how can they explain its strengthening over the past month and a half? Will the dollar rise on the "shutdown," and then again on the completion of the "shutdown"? However, as more information emerged from open sources, it became clearer that the end of the temporary governm…

US-based critical minerals developer Terra Metals and resource investment firm Metalex Commodities have finalized talks on the creation of what they call a “new copper and cobalt production powerhouse” based in Zambia. A signing ceremony is expected to be held in the US Embassy in Lusaka, underscoring the strategic alignment with US government priorities on critical mineral security, Terra Metals said in a press release Wednesday.

The Delaware-registered miner c…

Most Read: USD/CAD Price Outlook: Consolidation Above Key 1.4000 Handle. What Next for the Loonie? Tesla’s TSLA third-quarter 2025 financial results presents a challenging picture for market participants. On the one hand the company sold a record number of cars but it likely came at the expense of profit. What to Expect? Tesla achieved its highest-ever vehicle deliveries and energy sales in the third quarter. However, analysts expect that to show a drop in profit per share (EPS) of about 25% (from $0.72 last year down to around $0.53-$0.55 this year), despite a small increase in revenue (around 4% to 6%). This means sales grew through aggressively cutting prices, which…

The second quarter of 2025 is a key moment for Tesla as they release their earnings on Wednesday, July 23, 2025 after market close (AMC).

What to Expect? Tesla will release its Q2 2025 earnings after US markets close on Wednesday, July 23, 2025.

The company also withdrew its f…

South Korea is now actively in the global race to regulate stablecoins. America’s recent push with the GENIUS Act and the CLARITY Act is clearly the catalyst in South Korea’s move to establish a formal regulatory framework. Executives from the world’s two largest stablecoin issuers, Tether and Circle, landed in Seoul to hold meetings with the country’s financial leaders and regulators. Local media reports published on 24 August 2025 confirmed that South Korea’s Central Bank – Bank of Korea (BoK) Governor Lee Chang-yong met Circle President Heath. “Koreans must have access to stablecoins denominated in their own currency when buying and selling digital assets or making…

Tether Investments has jumped into a $39 million Series A funding round for Pave Bank, a company trying to merge traditional banking with digital assets. The round was led by Accel, with support from Wintermute, Quona Capital, and Helios Digital Ventures. The fresh funds are expected to help Pave Bank grow its global presence, speed up its product pipeline, and bring more institutional clients on board. A Bank That Talks to Both Worlds Pave Bank calls itself a “programmable” commercial bank, meaning it’s built for businesses that deal with both fiat currencies and digital assets. It’s not just a catchy tagline; their offering includes everything from treasury services an…

According to Tether executive Paolo Ardoino, the stablecoin USDT has reached 500 million users worldwide. The figure was posted on his social feed. Based on reports, that user base would represent about 6.25% of the global population. At the same time, USDT’s circulating supply is reported to be roughly $182 billion. Tether Reports 500 Million Users The announcement came in a short social post from Ardoino celebrating the milestone. It’s the “biggest financial inclusion achievement” in history, he said. The company frames this as a major step for financial access, pointing to broad use in markets where traditional banking is limited. The method used to count “users” ha…

Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, launched USAT in the US in September 2025. “I understand now why the US is called the land of opportunity,” said Ardoino on 25 October 2025, as he took the stage at the Lugano PlanB conference. “There is still opportunity for good innovators and for free thinkers,” he said. “That’s why I’m very grateful that we had the opportunity to think about our main product, USDT, in the context of the US.” Brandon Lutnick, Cantor Fitzgerald Chairman, weighed in. He said, “I think USAT is going to be an incredible initiative. And that’s what makes me so excited for Tether – the world’s greatest crypto company on Earth, and without even real perfect US p…

Tether’s latest move aims to streamline its stablecoin operations. The company plans to end USDT redemptions and token issuance on five older blockchains by September 1, 2025. Any tokens left on Omni Layer, Bitcoin Cash SLP, Kusama, EOS and Algorand will become frozen after that date. Focus Shifts Away From Legacy Chains Based on reports from Tether, these five networks once helped drive its early growth. But current data shows a big drop in USDT activity there. Usage has been mostly flat for months. And with few new transactions, keeping those chains alive no longer makes sense. The decision follows a careful infrastructure audit. Teams looked at chains with low u…

Tether is looking to raise $20 billion from investors, which could push its valuation close to $500 billion, ultimately putting it in the same league as tech giants like OpenAI and SpaceX. According to a Bloomberg article published on 23 September 2025, Tether aims to sell around 3% of its stake through private deals, targeting between $15 billion and $20 billion. The deal entails fresh funding from new shares and not from existing investors cashing out. Cantor Fitzgerald, a major financial services firm based in New York City, is leading the advisory work. If successful, this deal would mark a huge milestone for Tether. Shedding light on this new development, Tether’s…

Tether has revealed that its profit for the first three quarters of 2025 has passed the $10 billion mark. That number puts it ahead of some of the world’s biggest banks when looking at the same stretch of time. Treasury Bills Are Doing the Heavy Lifting The massive revenue comes mainly from the $135 billion in U.S. Treasury bills that Tether holds in its reserves. These reserves back every USDT token in circulation, and when interest rates on Treasuries climb, so does Tether’s profit. The company benefits from simply holding onto these government-backed assets. Outearning the Traditional Giants To get a sense of how big this is, Bank of America earned less than Te…

Tether acted swiftly Sunday when it froze $12.3 million worth of USDT on the Tron blockchain. Based on reports from Tronscan, this step targets wallets allegedly linked to money laundering and sanctions evasion. The company has not issued a public statement yet, but on‑chain data left little room for doubt. T3 Financial Crime Unit Shows Muscle According to Tether, its T3 Financial Crime Unit (FCU) partners with Tron and TRM Labs to track suspect transactions in real time. Since late 2024, the FCU has frozen over $126 million in questionable assets. In the last quarter of that year alone, $100 million was blocked. This suggests a sharp uptick in enforcement efforts just…

Tether has invested in a Chilean crypto exchange in a bid to expand to Latin America’s $415 billion cryptocurrency market. According to Chainalysis, LATAM received nearly $415 billion in cryptocurrency between July 2023 and June 2024, with stablecoins accounting for the majority of indirect flows from local to global exchanges, particularly in countries like Brazil and Argentina. On 3 June 2025, Tether announced investing in Orionx, one of the leading Chilean digital asset exchanges and a financial infrastructure company specializing in cross-border payments. Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, said, “Orionx is expanding access to digital assets in LATAM and building meaningf…

Tether is making moves again, and this time, it is to mine green Bitcoin. In a bold move, they have partnered with South American agribusiness giant Adecoagro to create a BTC ▼-1.13% mining operation. But this time, the operation site will be powered solely on robust renewable energy in Brazil. The goal is to transform clean energy into digital gold. With Tether holding a 70% stake in Adecoagro and turning its eyes to global mining dominance, this initiative could reshape how the world views crypto sustainability and energy use.
