Subject: Molybdenum Demand Info II I thought I might repeat this link as some of you with Internet Explorer and Outlook mail (blecch!) may have had trouble with it putting links on two lines with a DOS carriage return between the lines -- which disables the link. Microsoft knows about this and has a disclaimer telling people to cut and past the links if part is not hi-lited, and appear in black on the second line. neasia.nikkeibp.com Apparently the Hitachi-Maxell had made a breakthrough last October in the use of molybdenum in fuel cells, and it may allow the cost to be brought down 2/3's from a Platinum-Palladium standard fuel cell such as are use in hybrid cars today. If this discovery takes off, moly's usesage will advance substantially. It is already predicted to increase slightly from its relatively new uses in electronics such as digital cameras and the new high density lithium-molybdenum oxide batteries that have been recently developed in Asia. (Originally a CDN discovery -- in BC of all places) If one adds batteries and fuels cells to the present Moly demand equation, one could see a substantial increase in demand for the metal. The basic advance is to reduce the carbon substrate particles to a one nano metre size for the on surface precipitation of the moly. Previous technology had utilized 12 nano-m particles and had inferior performance to Pt. type cells. This advance so far promises to change that factor, as the character of these small particles is completely different than their larger cousins. I thought that this was important enought that it should be resent. People saying that moly's demand in the new millenium is shaky are ignoring a number of factors that have not in the past impacted domestically generated numbers. These factors are in the last year or two just starting to impact the prices of lead, copper, zinc and steel, and also have a hand in keeping the gold price up. These demand factors were seen by researchers in Canada in the latter half of the nineties, and the exact actions of the Chinese in curtailing domestic exports and subsequent price moves of metal were predicted. This alone proves that the price of moly was no fluke and moly could be, albeit over a broad range, on a long term high.
