Orocobre Limited (ASX: ORE)
The first ASX 200 mining share to consider is this lithium miner. It could be a top option for investors looking for exposure to the clean energy/electric vehicle thematic.
Orocobre recently completed its merger with Galaxy Resources. This has created a top five global lithium mining company, which will soon be rebranded as Allkem. The merged company has a collection of strong operations and equally strong growth prospects. This puts it in a great position to benefit from the increased demand and strong prices for the battery making ingredient.
The team at Macquarie are very positive on Orocobre. The broker currently has an outperform rating and $11.80 price target on its shares. This compares to the current Orocobre share price of $8.52.
South32 Ltd (ASX: S32)
Another ASX 200 mining share to consider is South32. The BHP Group (ASX: BHP) spin off could be a top option due to the diversity of its operations and positive growth outlook.
Among the commodities that the company produces are alumina, aluminium, energy coal, metallurgical coal, manganese ore, nickel, silver, lead, and zinc.
The one that is getting investors excited right now is aluminium. With the metal believed to be in the early stages of a multi-year bull market, South32 looks set to benefit from strong prices in the coming years.
Goldman Sachs certainly expects this to be the case. So much so, the broker has a conviction buy rating and $3.80 price target on its shares. Goldman is also forecasting double digit dividend yields through to at least FY 2026.
The South32 share price is currently fetching $3.39.
