Q: Hello 5i,

What do you think about the companies above? Is the risk worth the reward? How long do you think these stocks get hot? You think the uranium, cobalt and gold markets are cooling down and getting ready for another long hibernation?

Q: I heard a radio item about the growing demand for cobalt which is needed for batteries. It seems there are several cobalt mining ventures in Canada. Do you know of any that would make a respectable investment opportunity?

What do you think of First Cobalt and Cobalt 27 Capital?

Thanks!

Q: Ann Sabina in her book "Rocks and Minerals For The Collector: Cobalt-Belleterre-Timmins; Ontario & Quebec" notes the Agaunico Mine produced 4 million pounds of cobalt between 1930 to 1957. The was no South Lorraine mine. There were silver mines located in South Lorraine township which produced some cobalt in addition to silver. I suggest the members be very careful purchasing shares in companies which have optioned old mines in South Lorraine township. I am going up to the region for a wedding this summer and I will let the members know if I see any signs of new exploration. (My claims have all lapsed!)
Voisey Bay mine in Labrador, purchased by Inco, now incorporated into Vale was once reported to have substantial reserves of cobalt. Members might want to check that out over South Lorraine township.
10 foot touching poles are required for mines in South Lorraine township.
