Rare Genetic Mutations Linked To Bipolar Disorder
2012-02-05 12:42:00 Abnormal sequences of DNA known as rare copy number variants (CNVs) may play a role in the risk for early-onset bipolar disorder, according to new research from an international team of scientists. The variants, also known as CNVs, are alterations in which there are too few or too many copies of sections of DNA. Researchers have known that spontaneously occurring or de novo CNVs, which are genetic mutations not inherited from parents, increase the risk for some neuropsychiatric conditions, such as schizophrenia or autism. But their role was unclear in bipolar disorder, according to principal investigator Jonathan Sebat, Ph.D., assistant professor of psychiatry and cellular and molecular medicine at the University of California San Diego?s Institute of Genomic Medicine. Sebat and his colleagues found that de novo CNVs contribute ?significant? genetic risk in about 5 percent of early-onset bipolar disorder, which appears in childhood or early adulthood.
Rare Earth Metals?Not Your Father?s Mining Biz: Byron King
2012-01-31 22:00:00 The Critical Metals Report: No year has brought higher highs and lower lows to the rare earth space than 2011. Do you expect the same volatility in 2012? Byron King: The short answer is yes. In this market, anything is possible. In 2011 we saw highs toward the beginning of the year because there was a lot of enthusiasm for the technology metals space. We experienced lows towards the end of 2011 because there was a general market selloff. It didn’t matter if you were stock-picking. The falling tide sucked everything down. Looking ahead into 2012, the good plays are going to see brand-new highs.

Solving Critical Rare Earth Metal Shortages: Dr. Michael Berry and Chris Be
2012-01-10 22:00:00 The Critical Metals Report: In a presentation at the China Investment Conference in December, you said that over the last 20 years the U.S. government has mismanaged its supplies of critical metals to the point where it depends almost exclusively on foreign sources. How did this happen? Michael Berry: It’s just now starting to dawn on Washington that we don’t have a stockpile. We had a stockpile through World War I and World War II (WWII) that was necessary to our national security. The U.S. was the biggest producer of rare earth elements (REEs) in the 1970s and 1980s. But then we allowed China to undercut our prices and we shut down the Mountain Pass mine, which was one . . . → Read More: Solving Critical Rare Earth Metal Shortages: Dr. Michael Berry and Chris Berry

Critical Reading for Rare Earth Metals Investors
2011-12-27 22:00:00 A quick search of media stories from the month of December, 2009 shows 24 clips including references to the 15 lanthanides and their related elements scandium and yttrium. By contrast, one day in December, 2011 produced 56 stories on the same resources. Even the tone of REE coverage has transformed over the years. Two years ago, an analyst piece from veteran metals consultant Jack Lifton titled “Underpriced Rare Earth Metals from China Have Created a Supply Crisis ” was a common headline as the world discovered that cheap supplies had left manufacturers vulnerable to a monopoly with an agenda. That supply fear made REE the investment de jour and sent almost all of the rare earth prices through the . . . → Read More: Critical Reading for Rare Earth Metals Investors

What are you predicting for 2012? Anthony Alfidi: I believe rare earth elements prices will continue to fall. They had a run-up until this summer, primarily based on Chinese export restrictions and the enthusiasm that some speculators had for the sector. But those conditions are both absent now. I believe that economic fundamentals are weakening around the world and the resulting credit crunch will hurt trade, finance and manufacturing. Demand for rare earth elements is derived from demand for finished goods. Therefore, it’s very much dependent . . . → Read More: Rare Earth Metals Bears and Bulls: Anthony Alfidi

Rare Earth Mining Innovations: Anthony Mariano
2011-12-13 21:30:00 The Critical Metals Report: Dr. Mariano, let’s discuss some potential for rare earth elements (REEs) from a geological perspective. What is catching your attention outside of China? Anthony Mariano: Beach sand and river placer monazite occurs in plentiful supply in many countries outside of China. The rare earth oxide (REO) content of monazite is approximately 70 weight percent (wt%) and the distribution has a better intermediate REE content than bastnasite. Bastnasite is the world’s source at this time, and has been historically, for the light rare earth elements (LREEs). TCMR: If this type of sand deposit is available, why aren’t companies considering it? AM: The current perceived challenge to mining monazite is the presence of thorium in . . . → Read More: Rare Earth Mining Innovations: Anthony Mariano

The Age of Rare Earth Metals: Luisa Moreno
2011-12-06 21:30:00 The Critical Metals Report: Luisa, in a recent interview, you called the rare earth space “the modern Bronze Age played in the capital markets.” Could you expand on that? Luisa Moreno: The Bronze Age was the first period of human civilization in which metal was used. This rare earth period is similar in that investors are learning about new elements and their applications, which are fairly critical for our modern lifestyle. At the same time, investors have the opportunity to create profits in the space. The analogy is an exaggeration, but we are discovering these new elements.

Anthony Young: China, Molycorp and the Future of Rare Earths
2011-11-29 21:30:00 The Critical Metals Report: The Chinese government is now enforcing environmental standards at its rare earth element (REE) mines. Inner Mongolia Baotou Steel Rare-Earth (Group) Hi-Tech Co. Ltd., China’s biggest rare earths producer, even halted production earlier this year. Yet the scarcity of these metals continues to provide China with unprecedented economic opportunity. Which side wins and for how long? Anthony Young: For the time being, China will continue to dominate the industry, but it may become a net importer of rare earths after 2015. As it cuts back on supply, prices are likely to remain elevated for an extended period of time.

Gareth Hatch: Navigating the Rare Earth Metals Landscape
2011-11-22 21:30:00 The Critical Metals Report: Gareth, Greenland’s natural resource minister said that beginning in 2012, his country will take bids to develop its rare earth element (REE) deposits. What do you make of that? Gareth Hatch: It was a little surprising, frankly. Of course it very much depends on the existing relationships in place between the private-sector companies and the government there, and how they intend to exploit those resources, but I might be a little concerned if I were one of the private companies and the government had not approached me first, before making this announcement.

A Rare Second Chance to Buy these 5 Stocks
2011-11-22 14:45:00 Take your mind back to the third quarter of 2011. Companies were posting robust profits and investors were wading back into the market, helping to fuel a 15% gain in the S&P 500 from early October to the second week of November. But the just-ended earnings season must seem like an ancient history now, and investors are once again hitting the "sell" button. Since peaking at 1,278 on Nov. 8, the S&P 500 has already begun to cough up its gains and is now on its way to buckling back under the 1,200 mark. The sudden mood change must be especially hard to fathom for the companies that just delivered great third-quarter results, since several stocks posted double-digit . . . → Read More: A Rare Second Chance to Buy these 5 Stocks

WSU researchers demonstrate rare animal model for studying depression
2011-10-24 17:24:00 Washington State University researchers have taken a promising step toward creating an animal model for decoding the specific brain circuits involved in depression. By electrically stimulating a brain region central to an animal?s primary emotions, graduate student Jason Wright and his advisor Jaak Panksepp saw rats exhibit a variety of behaviors associated with a depressed, negative mood, or affect. ?We might now have a model that allows us to actually know where to look in the brain for changes relevant to depression, and we can monitor how activity in these regions change during states of negative affect and the restoration of positive affect,? says Wright. ?There are no other models out there like this.? The researchers caution that their work comes with a variety of caveats and that there are still many factors that need to be evaluated.

Rare Photos: 1985 Chicago Bears
2011-02-28 01:46:00 I know, I know, we've been here before. Some of us are, quite honestly, tired of hearing about the Super Bowl champion 1985 Chicago Bears. Not for lack of love or respect, but for want of a modern day version of that dominating group of pro football hall of famers. It's not easy, and teams like that don't come around every year. Heck, teams like that don't come around twice. Ever. Recently, with the passing of one of the most important pieces on that 1985 team, Dave Duerson, Bears fans have relived some of that glory over in our heads; glory that seems to make the situation all the more tragic. Just prior to Duerson's suicide, ESPN shed some light...

China Rare Earths Quotas -- The Facts And The Law
2011-01-19 18:28:00 By Steve Dickinson The purpose of this post is to provide a factual and legal background to China’s export quota program for rare earths. The Facts Rare earths are one of 49 products for which China imposes export quotas. Other products for which China imposes export quotas include grains such as corn and wheat, hydrocarbons such as coal and crude oil and various metals such as tin and zinc. As explained below, this entire set of export quotas appears to violate WTO trade rules prohibiting export quotas as a general principle. Mexico has challenged the quotas on metals other than rare earths in the WTO. The dispute resolution panel is expected to render its decision on that challenge in April of this year. The U.S. has repeatedly threatened to challenge the rare earths quota system. If Mexico prevails on its metals claim, we can expect a challenge to the rare earths quotas to follow soon thereafter. It appears that the entire Chinese export quota system can be challenged ...
