Obviously we all hope for much more but I was trying to set a conservative figure based on a recent transaction.
Last night news out of Canada.
I’m still in half disbelief, but First Cobalt, a company with a $240m MC and no defined cobalt resource or drill holes that indicate one will be defined has just acquired a company with a 1.3mt 0.59% cobalt resource for $149m. There’s nothing special about this deposit, in fact it’s high in arsenic and requires extra treatment to take into production. 7Kt of cobalt for $149m.
Cobalt price has moved up again, and this is before Gecamines begin their artful negotiations.
I hope nzuri trench the hell out of all our outcropping cobalt targets.

And that resource wasn't even JORC compliant, and I believe UG. Either a monumentally ridiculous deal or it should be a rerating event for any half serious Cobalt project.
