Cobalt news

"As of April 24, the cobalt spot price was US$ 25.06 , having risen from US$ 24.61 this time last month. The graph below gives the past 1 year performance of cobalt showing a very strong rise since January. This is mostly due to the cobalt market going into deficit as shown by the top Chinese cobalt producers who have recently halted or limited deliveries due to supply constraints."  https://seekingalpha.com/article/4065247-coba...april-2017

"With the recent US Geological Survey and citing a decrease in supply for US Cobalt reserves, and the tech market creating an increase in demand, I feel our inclusion of Cobalt is well timed and puts us in an exciting position, especially with our upcoming exploration," said Anne Carioti, CEO of SourcingLink.net.
