Andrew Mikitchook has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Ivanhoe Mines’ strong operational performance and future growth potential. The company’s production at the Kamoa-Kakula project exceeded expectations in the second quarter, achieving 112,009 tons of copper despite previous disruptions caused by seismic activity. This recovery and the successful operation of concentrators at 85% capacity demonstrate Ivanhoe’s ability to manage and overcome challenges effectively.
Furthermore, the ongoing dewatering efforts at Kakula are progressing as planned, which is expected to facilitate further assessments and improvements in the latter half of the year. Ivanhoe’s strategic focus on expanding production capacity and accessing higher-grade ore in the deeper sections of the mine positions the company for significant growth. The analyst believes that the market undervalues Ivanhoe’s portfolio of world-class development assets, and anticipates a revaluation as the company transitions into a high-margin, world-class producer.

Mikitchook covers the Basic Materials sector, focusing on stocks such as G Mining Ventures, Ivanhoe Mines, and Wesdome Gold Mines. According to TipRanks, Mikitchook has an average return of 19.2% and a 56.68% success rate on recommended stocks.

In another report released yesterday, Stifel Nicolaus also initiated coverage with a Buy rating on the stock with a C$13.50 price target.
