Robin recently brought up an important speculative issue pertaining to the available supply of nickel on our planet. If one assumes a worst case scenario it's possible we might only have a 100 year supply. [For the sake of argument, let's temporarily remove the premise of mining the asteroid belt for unlimited supplies of nickel! I'll follow-up with a different post on that matter.]
Granted, I gather, Robin's estimate was deliberately engineered to be conservative - primarily to stress the point that without more information it would be wise to error on the conservative side - until we know more about what Rossi's e-cats really "transmute". I would love to hear various opinions on the matter of available supplies of Nickel, particularly pertaining to the economy of actually mining the element. How realistic of a "conservative" prediction is the 100 year prediction? What economics are involved? What do others think & speculate on this matter?
