Gold price, page-12562

Sorry, guys and girls for the off-topic response. Just wanted to clarify what I meant in my earlier post.

It's all cyclical, A41.

Have a look at *****-zinc historical charts. Zn price is near 5-year high and LME stock level at 5-year low, down from 1.2MT to 300kT. The market is aware of the supply-demand issues and that's why the current Fe demand-supply dynamics hasn't discouraged present investment into Zn exploration and production. Several large Zn mines have exhausted their resources/reserves but there are no immediate replacements coming up due to lack of past investments.

Ok, I'm opening myself to possible attack from Li diehards. Latest research and development into Zn battery technology is looking promising, esp. Zn-Br and Zn-Ni. Will take some time, as it did for Li battery technology. But the competition is real.

Check out RFX which is listed on the ASX. Its sp may not be doing well because of operational issues, but I'm referring to its Zn battery technology.

As I stated earlier, it's just a heads up to posters who might be interested in diversifying from Au if pog continues to be manipulated and suppressed incessantly. I'm not promoting any Zn miner or producer. Cheers. R.
