Message: Gallium investment opportunity > 5N Plus : World's #1 supplier

I am the OP.

I did some more resarch since I posted this. I don't want to mislead investors.

A couple of reports I read state that there are bigger suppliers of gallium in the world. That is not to say 5N is not a good investment.

Here is one.

MAJOR GALLIUM PRODUCERS

GEO Gallium of France, a subsidiary of GEO Specialty Chemicals (private company), an American company, is the world’s largest producer of refined gallium, and the world’s only fully integrated producer. GEO Gallium produces crude gallium at its plant in Germany, which is then refined to the 6N and 7N levels in France.

Chalco, a subsidiary of state-owned Chinalco (Aluminium Corp of China Ltd.), is the world’s second largest alumina producer. It is a smelter-grade alumina producer based in China, and a major producer of high-grade crude gallium metal and gallium oxide (4N).

Japan’s largest producer, Sumitomo Chemicals, is a subsidiary of the Sumitomo Group that has a gallium plant in Shanghai, China. Sumitomo Electric Industries, which is also part of the Group, uses this gallium for the advanced electronic devices and components that it designs, manufactures, and sells. Another Japanese player is Dowa Mining Ltd., a producer of gallium from zinc ore imported from its Mexican mine.
