Zeev, I made a very very short version of your post for those who have not
the time for a post over a page, but I'am confused as to why platinum is a
discussion for this GPGI gold mining company. We all know the price of
gold is around $290 a pound, or is that a cubic foot. Is platinum worth
as much as silver ?

Also, noone has told me what a gibb?? is, as I asked in a prior post.

Chrysler Breakthrough Brings Fuel Cells 10 Years Closer

For the first time gasoline can be used to operate a fuel cell,
possibly bringing fuel cells 10 years closer to reality.
What is a fuel cell?

A device that produces electricity directly from a chemical reaction
between hydrogen and oxygen triggered by a platinum
catalyst. They are stacked in series to produce sufficient electricity
to power one or more electric traction motors, as well
as other systems and accessories.

i.e. platinum catalysts, the membrane
electrolyte and bipolar plates. The result has been a
sixty-fold reduction in the platinum content of a standard fuel cell
module since 1984.

While hydrogen can be pressurized, our
experience with natural gas vehicles tells us that it
would be difficult and costly to store on board a vehicle

Key challenges also include maintaining low emission levels and keeping
carbon monoxide (CO) and sulfur from poisoning the fuel cell.

progress is being made on shrinking fuel cells stacks
fuel cell power density has increased seven-fold since 1991
