Shortage of nichel is caused by a shortage of a typographical education. The mentioned shortage of nickel, on the other hand, is caused by a theoretical projection of demand-growth versus price/supply/depletion projections. We know at present that it is not actual, and is subject to some debate. As of now there is no shortfall per se. With Voisey Bay coming on stream, two other large Pacific projects, and the real possibility of another large discovery in the Raglan with CZZ, there will probably be no actual shortfall. Let us not discount the Fort Knox Gold Resources discovery in Sudbury either. We must remember that the projections of shortfall are done by Inco and presume an unrestricted Chinese growth. There has to be foreign exchange to support this growth, and if western economies contract, this will not be assured. EC<:-}
