$FYI – Cobalt Miners News For The Month Of September 2018
by Matt Bohlsen @sa – Includes: AEOMF, AMSLF, ARRRF, ARTTF, AZRMF, BBBMF, BHP, BKTPF
Summary
Cobalt spot prices were slightly down in September but appear to have stabilized just below US$30/lb.
Cobalt market news – Any reduction of the cobalt content would likely be far outweighed by a four-to-five-fold increase in demand for batteries.
Mining News – “Cobalt heading towards 2020s deficit.”
DRC H1 2018 – Cobalt production jumped 37.6% to 52,491 tonnes.
Cobalt miners news – China Molybdenum increases net profit by 162.95% year on year. RNC Minerals hits a massive high grade gold deposit at their Beta Hunt mine in Australia, ~C$38m so far in 2 weeks.
“Reduced cobalt electric car batteries delayed amid price fall. This month provided further evidence that cobalt bulls may rest a little bit easier – rapidly rising global battery production volumes should more than make up for ongoing cobalt thrifting”

Summary
Graphite spot prices were basically flat in September.
Graphite market news – India has ended anti-dumping duties on graphite electrodes imported from China.

“China’s push for blue skies has caused an obscure steel making ingredient to fuel gains of as much as 2,600 percent since the start of 2017 for the few companies that supply it, minting at least one new billionaire. The material is graphite,”
““It takes 10-15 times more graphite than lithium to create a lithium-ion battery for any number of uses including electric vehicle batteries. Leading analyst Industrial Minerals has indicated that Chinese suppliers of graphite to the electric vehicle market are ‘sold out’ of material indicating possible that stockpiling of the material is occurring,” states A. Paul Gill, CEO of Lomiko Metals Inc.”
Hey there Brother Griffin. You are a one man show on here lately ! You beat me to posting too much. Thanks for the info and links. Hopefully things in the sector will come alive again and we can get more of our holdings in the green. I miss HN and all the jawin we used to do around here. Looks like the Red tide has taken over. I have a few more funds to play with but can’t decide if tax selling has been taking place or yet to begin !…..Cowboy
#Gr8Full to Griffin, Cowboy, Ed, #HendrixNuzzlez and others in the #EV #Battery #Gumgang! Been a busy summer with lots of changes in this sector/technologies and my personal family life. Lqqking forward to a hopefully, more relaxing, share price appreciation, and time to share more links and news this #Fall2018. 🙂 Appreciate ya’ll 🙂 Live long and Prosper! 🙂

Just doing what I like to do to try and stay up with the market(?). I’ve only got one stock in the green and that is Real Good Solar $RGSE but not by much. The red tide hasn’t taken over yet but has done some pretty obscene things to stay in power(?). All I can say is VOTE.

$FYI – It’s a Lithium-ion World But Vanadium Batteries Are Catching Up
Date: Sep 27, 2018
The recent success of lithium-ion batteries being deployed in increasing larger systems that are exceeding 1 GWh has brought to light the huge potential of the market for all types of battery technologies, Benchmark Mineral Intelligence says.
The discussion around the energy storage space is heating up, with many market participants wondering which metals will be needed to supply increasing demand from this market.
According to Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, the recent success of lithium-ion batteries in increasingly larger systems exceeding 1 GWh has brought to light the huge potential market for all types of battery technologies.
For many years, vanadium-flow batteries have been a favored technology to enter the energy storage space in a serious way, and the London-based firm forecasts that it could become a major player in the market, second to lithium-ion batteries.“If a vanadium battery producer steps forward with bold plans to produce vanadium flow at mass scale, giving the industry its ‘Elon Musk or lithium-ion moment,’ the potential for the technology to be the second-most-deployed energy storage system battery in the world is there,” Benchmark Managing Director Simon Moores told the Investing News Network (INN).
Vanadium-flow batteries are a viable option for large-scale storage because they are able to provide hundreds of megawatt hours at grid scale. That means they can be charged thousands of times without losing capacity, while holding large amounts of energy.
This type of battery makes sense where three conditions are met:
the energy storage systems needs to be big — more than 100 megawatts;
the system needs to provide power for relatively long durations — at least four hours;
the system must be used often — about once a day, every day.
“For awhile, the electricity grid didn’t need this kind of energy storage — natural gas power plants did just fine — but the rise of renewable energy and the desire for low-carbon electricity made flow batteries more attractive,” Tim Grejtak, energy storage analyst at Lux Research, told INN.

$CECBF – CellCube Selected by E.ON as Large Scale Long Duration Energy Storage Solution for Project in Sweden
“The village of Simris, located in the region of Scania in southern Sweden, is supplied 100 percent by locally produced renewable energy on an annual basis. This community microgrid showcases energy supply entirely by sun and wind. The energy for approximately 150 households is being generated from wind turbines with installed capacity of 500 kilowatts (kW) and photovoltaic panels with 440 kW, and will now be supported by a CellCube energy storage system with 1,800 kWh usable energy capacity.”

$FYI – Rapid changes in US market driving up value of residential and other BTM energy storage
“Janice Lin, head of the California Energy Storage Alliance (CESA), told Energy-Storage.news at the show this week that the overall market for energy is growing fast and that interest is also scaling up from outside sources.
“One of the indicators that [energy storage is] really taking on and taking root on a global scale is that we have a lot of proactive enquiries from regulators, decision makers, governments, that are very pro-actively exploring how to incorporate storage into their respective power sector, or their jurisdiction,” Lin said, adding that NGOs and climate groups and advocates including former US vice president Al Gore are also making positive comments or starting initiatives on energy storage.”

$CECBF lp
Well Holy Cow Cowboy! What’s happening with the stock today?
I can’t find anything, but I’m liking it!
Maybe someone finally figured out what “Deployment of First Rapid Lithium Extraction System” means, these systems are portable. You call MGX an order one(?) and they deliver and surely train in how to use. Undoubtedly there are permits, etc., required but any place there is lithium brine is a potential spot for one of these systems.
$MGXMF wishing I was longer
Are we mixing up comments on two different stocks here ie CECBF and MGX or am I missing the connection?
My fault I think I did mix things wasn’t watching close enough.
Absolutely correct! I think that this is the overall game changer for them, the fact that they can move around from well to well when needed. I do not know how long of a time it would be used at a sight, but the fact remains that it is portable and reusable.
OK Griffin….I hope that I never makd=e a misteak!
$CECBF I had an order at the open today to see if I could accumulate more shares at .115, it hit as low as .118, but then took off from there. I have a very decent stake already, was hoping to maybe even double it if I could below .12, but I’ll take the booster shot, I need it with my cobalt stocks getting crushed this year. If I missed my price, I missed it, it could come back down, or blast off from here, I think this pony has potential for huge gains.
SPNRF —Long…… Nice move today on twice the normal daily volume ! And THAT wasn’t too much money’s worth..LOL….Cowboy
LOL, someone bought $250 worth and raised the market cap by a couple million.
