exciting zinc article, page-10

re: re:mookie anyone notice singapore the other issue with substitution mookie is that zinc does not generally make up a high percentage in dollar value of the products it is in.
For eg if you sell icecreams and the price of chocolate coating or nuts doubles it really doesnt affect the overall price of the ice cream that much. zinc is that way inclined where as copper is generally the product or the main ingredient and therefore you look for substitutes.
i hope the ice cream analogy is ok.
