I have recently read several detailed reports from the sell-side brokerages concerning changes in their metals price deck. The only metal that didn't get it prices increased over the next number of years was zinc. This is another logistical issue, not an actual shortage of zinc, and will have no long term effect, as zinc is projected to be in surplus for years to come unless someone figures out a new way to use it.

Both reports projected that copper is the most likely to suffer shortages, something that Saville agrees with. I made a lot of money on zinc stocks and warrants during the last time there was a real zinc shortage, in 2011 if I remember right, but now is not the time to play zinc except in the short term. Even then, haven't seen any response to this paper 'shortage' from the zinc miners, so best to stick to zinc ingots or futures.
