We remain optimistic about the longer term outlook for copper producers given the shift towards cleaner energy.

Renascor Resources

Renascor Resources is also a buy according to Perrottet. Renascor is developing the Siviour Graphite Project on the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. Perrottet highlighted Renascor has "the world's second biggest graphite reserve". He added:

RNU aims to become a supplier of purified spherical graphite (PSG) for lithium-ion battery anode makers across the world. RNU will reach a final investment decision in 2023. Keep an eye on the news flow.

The Renascor Resources share price has soared 100% in a year. However, it has declined nearly 21% in the last month.
