0135 GMT - Another leg higher for shares of miners including Anglo American and Freeport mostly depends on commodity prices rising, according to Jefferies analyst Christopher LaFemina. "That is fine," he says in a note, "but it can be a short-term problem as geopolitical risks escalate...again." LaFemina cautions to prepare for some volatility in mining stocks. In Sydney, BHP and Rio Tinto are up 0.5% and 1.2%, respectively. (rhiannon.hoyle@wsj.com; @RhiannonHoyle)
