Future of Cobalt

[bae]

Everything will take longer than you expect it to. Most likely FCC is dealings with multiple investment arm's. For this reason it will involve X times as much communication as necessary and takes time.

Cobalt is not only used in batteries also alloys for aircraft engine parts and alloys with corrosion/wear resistant uses.

The compounds cobalt silicate and cobalt(II) aluminate (CoAl2O4, cobalt blue) give a distinctive deep blue color to glass, ceramics, inks, paints and varnishes.

 

A blue win in the US will dramatically move the electrification wave.

 

Be early, be right, sit tight.

A blue USA will only ban Fracking and reduce Mining.  I'm not to sure where they stand on the EV market but we all know the Red will keep the jobs in the USA.

Dumb comment.  Fracking, and Mining are two completely different, and seperate things.  Fracking is very controversial, and bad for most things in the long run. Mining too, to a degree, just not as severe of one.  Blue loves GREEN, as in the environment.  RED. not so much.  So Blue loves EV.  How do you figure Red keeps the jobs in america better?

You need to link the two together.  Fracking is the hot topic because that will shut down the oil and gas industry in the US and they will be more dependent on other countries just like mining in the DRC and refining in China.  Biden is on record for banning both.

Stop the political promotion

[dothemathpeople]

No you do not.  They operate independnt of eachother.  I'm not talking us politics here, I am talking right and wrong.  Fracking is wrong.  Cobalt mining in the DRC is often wrong.  They should both be cleaned up, regulated.  You want to destabilize regions in the us by fracking, go ahead, but it's a bad idea over time, somehting the instant gratification

Dothemathpeople,                                I reference your question "Why do you think you need fracking to access natural gas, if EV and GREEN is continued to be developed?!?!"  I expect that you would be genuinely interested in a serious engineering perspective in terms of Grid Stability

Well said Bae. A great post.
