What can we say VP? It is predicted now that by present consumption copper will be in severe short supply. That the catchup game will fall short in meeting the volume consumption rate. That Copper should jump up to much higher prices than historical highs. Who knows? By catchup annalysiits cue in recycling, new mines into production, annual high and lo consumption of the product copper. Makes a very dynamic outlook for the Jr. Mining sector, which keeps me as an optimist in this area. Wishfully/Hopefully JB&BOD/LBSR will be ahead of the curve of these annalysits and be in early stages toward getting a fast track. I from my point of view have not seen how long the BOOM for copper will last and i assume it wil be a near 10 year cycle from the outset to the slowdown of heavy copper demand. See the below hotbutton for infill and i say you will be very convinced.
