Ann: GPP to acquire high grade Australian cobalt and vanadium co, page-50

You are right.

Cobalt, and the other rare earths, are critical elements in the new economy. Along with Lithium they are difficult to find in significant deposits and will continue to grow in value as the 90% of the world moves to catch up with the 'western' economy. In China and India we have 2 billion plus people trying to 'catch up'.

The problem with GPP (and other developing mining companies) is shareholders are way too short term focused.

I love the sentiment around developing brown coal for use in gardens. Move over seaweed based fertilisers. What I get annoyed about this is the management have an awesome opportunity and are waiting on 'confirmed' test reports on growing plants. The early results are totally awesome - we should have the brand registered and be selling already. this stuff will sell on sentiment like Seasol and other seaweed brands - just HPFM science and they are making a packet!
