When the Ground Shakes: Mining Disputes in an Era of Political Upheaval and Commodity Supercycles

Presentation

Please join NERA & White & Case. The session aims to explore key issues driving the recent surge in mining arbitration from legal and economic perspectives. Some of the key topics we will cover include:

• Recent trends in mining-related arbitrations
• The impact of political instability, regime change, and resource nationalism on mining projects
• How price surges in gold, silver, and other minerals are triggering disputes (including license withdrawals, windfall measures, renegotiations, and terminations)
• Quantum and valuation challenges in volatile environments, such as the limitations of DCF in politically unstable and price-volatile contexts, valuation dates, risk premia, and alternative market-based approaches

Join us immediately following the seminar for a networking reception.
