Apple and alumina/bauxite at QBL media on Facebook. This can be a big factor in the long run, though it will take some time to develop the new technology and put it in to massproduction. With Apple behind the newsrealease... I feel rather confident it will happen, otherwise they would not have put it out. The enviromental questions are a big part of the Apple brand, this is a clear sign to implement a new step of doing good for environment. This will be a thing that they will try to rise attention to there market brand on - " Apple, the choice of Life" . The green alternative, you bet your a_ _ they will launch a gigantic campaign to let the people know how "green" they are. So, will it effect the sales of bauxite ? Yes, I reckon it will - how much and how fast, time will tell. In extension this is very good news for QBL, though it might take some time to see the market react. Then again - it might go quick and Rio Tinto can be knocking on the door any day now and give Mrs Feldman an offer she can`t (and wont) resist.
