Wolfman_Jack - Terry Perles is of course the one person inside the Vanadium industry who everyone agrees knows exactly what is going on. The Roskill etc and other assorted 'analysts' are 25-30 year olds who get sent along to the Vanitec meetings to try and pick up what they can before passing it off as their own profound research. Terry knows of pretty much every source of Vanadium across the world, and of course worked at for our own dear Vametco when it was owned by Stratcor, before Evraz bought it in 2006 ( http://www.evraz.com/media/news/1726/ )
Here's a potted CV for Terry who I now know rather well:-
