China's economic growth has slowed down a bit in the recent years ( +10%/year down to +6 ).
OK, so you would think that the sky would fall in according to some nay sayers.

Well that slowdown was only a few percent and if you read the previous posting on this topic by Luker then you know that even with the slow down their demand for metals that Noront has in possession not only will hold but will increase ( nickel may be the slow one from the nickel ore, with chromite and vanadium, in that order, more and later).

By that I mean platinum, palladium, copper and even gold should demand premium prices in a few years.
( Yes, I have said similar a few years back. But that does not negate the logic just that
things are much delayed and probably will continue as long as paper PMs are accepted as
substitutes.)

So thank you Luker for that info.
