I totally agree.
US Vanadium should be renamed KIng Midas Vanadium.
Mark Smith and Terry Perles must be smoking something.
So the question remains.
Which company will be supplying the electrolyte for the batteries?.
Both Bushveld and Largo are in the driver's seat.
BTW
"Paludina" is a frequent poster on the Bushveld BB and he keeps track of all the Vanadium Shipments to the US. He recently posted the following:
"So far this year Bushveld have exported Vanadium to the US valued at $46 million".
Exports to the US are really beginning to pick up.
For those of you who don't recall the story.
"The most famous King Midas is popularly remembered in Greek mythology for his ability to turn everything he touched into gold. This came to be called the golden touch, or the Midas touch.
In other words US Vanadium have stated that they will be using India's by-product from slag to produce electrolyte.
