 Jack, a long weekend, holiday long weekend, the Chinese put out an announcement on Monday. Can you tell us what that announcement is? Yes, they said they're going to restrict the export of germanium and gallium as raw materials for the production of electronic items, electronic devices. Okay, so what is gallium? Gallium is a metal related to aluminum. It's extremely rare. World production of aluminum is over 50 million tons a year. World production of gallium is about 300 tons a year, and it all comes from that aluminum. It's typically present in bauxite, the ore of aluminum at 40 parts per million, and it's typically not produced. It's my understanding you made reference to needing it in atomic bombs, is that correct? Yeah, in order to make an atomic bomb of the plutonium type, which I believe is the most common now, you have to stabilize the plutonium in a particular phase, it's called. And to do that you make it into an alloy of gallium, at least that's what they did when I knew about it, okay? So actually that's the reason gallium was produced at all during World War II. It was the first time it was ever produced in quantity because they needed it for the Manhattan Project. Information we have online is that 98% of the world's supply of gallium is controlled by the Chinese. Does that sound correct to you? Yes, because the Chinese are processing all of the gallium and ultrapurifying it. So I'm not aware of anybody doing that currently in the Americas. I may be doing there, the 2% might be in Europe, yeah, that makes a lot of sense. It's my understanding you have experience actually processing gallium and you think we can actually get our game up quickly? Yeah, first of all, our companies like Alcoa actually were the original mass producers of gallium, at least the grandfathers of the current management, and we can produce gallium here, no question about it. We can ultrapurify it here, we know how to do it, it's just a matter of doing it. How stressed should we be with this announcement in a scale of say 1 to 100? Do you think China is weaponizing this critical mineral, what you called a critical critical mineral in another interview we did? No, no, I really don't. I believe this is a tit for tat situation and the Chinese are basically getting even with us for restricting their access to our computer chip market and are restricting and prohibiting the export of the machinery, the specialized machinery to make chips to China. Well, Jack, as always, it's a real pleasure for more information on Jack Lipton. Please send a note to the following email. Thank you, Jack. Thank you.
