<The ferronickels produce stainless steel feed mostly. This is not the same as selling nickel>

You are right. This output goes to specific buyers. But Canico has the option to produce high grade Ni as well but adding a not too costly process that is proprietary to inco. This process also recovers the cobalt.

<Can they get their money out of Brazil?>

Sure. After they pay their tax... same as with other mining companies.

< When do the Brazilians shut them down?>

Why would they do that. They need the tax dollars.

<And where do they get the senior money to do the thing?>

No big deal when there is a big profit looming. Inco onws 18% and will support this big time.
