RE:RE:Pelosi’s Taiwan Trip Spurs Chinese Battery Giant to Pause Agreed ...the situation will likely get worse before bettter but they are patient and clearly have long term vision and are masters of pain ( economically) the Japanese and Australians have felt it, the Germans and EU nations ( not to mention the USA) are realizing the situation they have put themselves in, much like with gas and Putin.

At first glance, and all things considered, we look like a no brainer however coupled with a raft of catalysts that seem to get complicated or change on us as we move up that curve, but the end game remains the same, our cobalt will be needed and our gold is desirable and the future of bismuth gets better every day. We wait for news news on steps forward and with who?
