Liberty and Finance: Darren Gordon: Iran’s Hidden Impact on Global Metals Markets; While headlines focus on the conflict itself, Darren Gordon (https://www.centaurus.com.au/) argues that the Iran crisis is exposing a deeper vulnerability in global supply chains. He explains how disruptions to sulfur and sulfuric acid markets, both critical inputs for nickel production, are already reshaping mining economics and commodity supply. As governments and corporations realize they can no longer rely on uninterrupted global trade, a new race to secure strategic resources is emerging. Gordon believes this shift could lead to higher costs, tighter supplies, and growing competition for critical materials across the industrial world. The result may be a lasting transformation in how nations manage resource security long after the conflict ends.
