Sprott Asset Management LP has announced that four new critical mineral ETFs will be launched, giving investors exposure to critical minerals essential to the storage, transmission, and generation of clean energy. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sprott inc.
The four funds are as follows, and will track induced that the company developed with Nasdaq, which will list the ETFs on its exchange:
- Sprott Energy Transition Materials ETF (Nasdaq: SETM)
- Sprott Lithium Miners ETF (Nasdaq: LITP)
- Sprott Junior Uranium Miners ETF (Nasdaq: URNJ)
- Sprott Junior Copper Miners ETF (Nasdaq: COPJ)
The funds join the Sprott Uranium Miners ETF (NYSE Arca: URNM), and Sprott Physical uranium Trust (TSX:U.U, U.UN) under the energy transition fund suite.
Countries around the world are creating new incentives and investing at rates never seen before to fund the transition to clean energy. This shift is creating demand for critical minerals and metals. These materials are needed not only to produce the components of renewable energy, but also to upgrade and maintain existing infrastructure.
By investing in these ETFs, investors can gain exposure to the companies that are engaged in the production, exploration, and development of critical minerals and metals needed to support a transition to clean energy.
Sprott’s ETFs were the first of their kind to offer investors a targeted exposure to the critical minerals and metals required for the energy transition. The funds will provide investors with access to the companies that are actively engaged in the production, exploration, and development of these resources, enabling them to capitalize on the growth opportunity created by the shift to clean energy.
