Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
PG your argument about lithium batteries being left on charge overnight is a good point. Most tesla fires have occurred while on rapid charge. The quicker the charge transfer seems to increase the risk. I also believe barring a bath with now have a limited use for candles until we have a fire at a lithium storage battery?????
Kevgrimmley I look and wind turbines and think where is the storage and why are the bases not covered in pv panels. What a waste of space and they would at least trickle charge when there is no wind. Ps on the turning off of wind turbines, who penned the contracts that pay millions when the grid doesn't need them. New job needed I would say
Pension our points are spot on. Even as a miner working out how to rice what we sell is difficult. I strongly believe that with vanchem now people will not worry about a single type of vanadium product but focus on general sales of v and sales of electrolyte. We must be due a move up as the great coffeecups has returned to bash the rise. Have a great day all.
Berserker I agree that the eskom project needs time but if we are all honest none of us know much more than we are told. But I would think that the amount of v needed for these projects and the prices at the minute that we are probably stock piling for increased margin on electrolyte as it should feed through still into this financial year
As soon as the contracts for vrfb start to be assigned the v price won't stay where it is. I would have thought some stock piling is slowly be managed at present for as soon as the cat is out the bag 10% of global production will immediately go to electrolyte. This has to cause upward pressure as I don't think there has been the required uplift in world processing capacity YET
With the announcement that the money has been released to eskom, the government/public wanting action on power cuts. What chance of an announcement before xmas.
Ps I brought last week so no one blame me... Have a great Xmas all and thank you lth's for all the excellent free information this year. I hope all make a small donation to a charity in corbs name as we have no true winner(I am not bitter)
Bella we all share the sentiment of extending numtys holiday, but he is now nearing non dom status. And with his holding in bushy tokens, he has to return to the rain. I am not bitter! No really i am up at 6am to go to work, I am not bitter really!!!
