I think the Manitoba nickel deposits are low in copper, pgms and cobalt compared to Sudbury. Falco, now Xztrata. Big cobalt deposits are in Africa. esp Zambia and Congo. time to dust off the ole reports. Formation in Idaho? ask koan.

Unless you meant current producers, I believe Tenke, TNK-T, has one of the biggest cobalt deposits under development. Not for anyone with country risk aversion, however. Congo.

POM has cobalt. <The 4,000-acre NorthMet resource contains valuable quantities of copper, nickel, cobalt and platinum group metals. > polymetmining.com <We believe that this combination alone would be sufficiently powerful to make PolyMet highly attractive. In addition, with a US-based asset, PolyMet is exceptionally well positioned to benefit from secular strength in metals markets, driven by global economic growth and dollar weakness. ?? NorthMet has a global resource of approximately 900 million tonnes grading 0.32% copper, 0.085% nickel, 0.006% cobalt, 0.43 grams per tonne platinum group metals, and 0.045 grams per tonne gold.> proteuscapital.com Maybe 108,000,000 lbs. Not 43-101 but from proteus capital.Not sure of recoverable amounts but still a lot of cobalt. Please check the math do our own DD> <g>
