VCN might benefit from whats happening in Congo, home to one-third (!) of the worlds cobalt. The market has been counting on a few big mines coming on line in 2009 and 2010 in the Congo to supply the extremely tight cobalt market, now the companies might have their rights cancelled. VCN's mine is cobalt-copper, one of the only ones outside the Congo planned in the next couple years. makes it very strategically important.
