RE:RE:AMY and Samsung sitting in a tree.. That's about right from what I have been reading and from Larrry himself. 2040 is when the industry experts are saying that batteries will need retired in North America (in an amount that makes it viable to do full time recycling).
When I bought in a couple years back I bought in not for North America at all. I bought in with the hopes that AMY would be working hard at recycling batteries in China, Japan and the UK. North America is 10 years behind with Electric Vehicles. The money is overseas; as is the current supply.
I am very comfortable with the patents getting priority, the mini-plant being built to invite potential investors to see the actual process and I am confident that there are people who are watching very closely.
In the meantime, maybe the company will secure a little capital with the mine lease out there. Has there been any word on whether or not that company is actually actively mining or are they doing their own due dilegence before they dig? I want to see what our share of the proceeds brings as it is added security of AMY Recycling as an ongoing concern in the early stages.
