Description: PLG Platinum Metals January 01, 2026
Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (NYSE MKT: PLG) is a Vancouver-based explorer and developer focused on platinum-group metals (PGMs) and associated base metals. The firm holds a 50.16 % stake in the Waterberg project, situated on the Northern Limb of South Africa’s Bushveld Igneous Complex, and pursues exploration for palladium, platinum, gold, copper, nickel and rhodium. In addition to traditional mining, PLG is developing next-generation battery technologies that leverage the catalytic properties of platinum and palladium.
Key recent metrics: as of Q4 2023 the company reported a cash position of roughly US$12 million and a monthly cash burn of $1.1 million, giving it ~11 months of runway without additional financing. The PGM market is driven by auto-catalyst demand, with palladium prices up ~30 % YoY in 2023 due to tightening emissions standards, while platinum has been pressured by a 15 % price decline amid slower demand in the automotive sector.
Sector drivers to watch include the ongoing shift toward stricter global emissions regulations, which sustains demand for palladium-rich catalysts, and the emerging use of PGMs in high-energy-density batteries-a niche where PLG’s R&D could create a differentiated revenue stream.
