Dear Reader,
With a gentle bump, the reinforced double-steel hull of a mini submarine nosed into the black sand 3 ½ miles below the South China Sea.
A red flag was pushed in the sand, and the submarine’s crew recorded the event for posterity.
The date: September 12, 2010.
At that moment, 98.5% of the earth’s mineral treasures were “claimed” by the communist Politburo of the Chinese Empire.
 China Claims the South China Sea. God help us |
The world held its breath…
And that, my friend, is how World War III began.
My name is Peter Krauth and I describe myself as the first official correspondent of World War III.
Please understand: I am not in the least bit interested in history − indeed I distrust and despise it. But I do believe in keeping score. And the score, as of this moment, is:
I am writing to you today because I strongly believe that your future, and the future security of your family, depends on this score… and as of this moment, the game is going against you.
It does not have to be this way.
And that is the other reason I am writing to you now.
The score may not ultimately be changed by what you learn today, but your personal fortune certainly can be altered − and dramatically, as I’ll show you in a moment.
The global stakes are so huge, they beggar description and defy alteration.
But the personal, individual stakes contain much uncertainty. And where there is uncertainty, there is opportunity.
In this letter, I want to tell you about this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity… this opportunity to make more money than you can spend, in less time than you might believe possible.
Read every word of what I have to say, please. It will not leave you poorer and it might very well prove to be the best-spent 10 minutes of your life.
Make A Run For It…
There is no arms race… This is no Cold War.
This is the frantic race for the last of the earth’s mineral treasures.
He who wins can claim the last, most precious reserves of this rare mineral wealth. I’m not talking about oil here, or gold, or even precious platinum. I’m talking crucial territorial reserves of rare earth minerals.
How We Became Addicts
Think for a moment about the things you treasure − or indeed take for granted − today.
Things like fire-retardant kids’ pajamas…
Or the push-button windows in your car…
Or movie-theater quality surround sound from your iPod…
Almost every piece of modern medical equipment…
Or even the color Red on your TV…
None of this is possible without access to minute quantities of certain exotic minerals, “rare earths,” as they’re called. Minerals that are, by some strange geological quirk, located in, or under the strict control of China.
Each and every Toyota Prius built today contains an extravagant 20 pounds of precious minerals you never heard of… minerals with names like scandium and gadolinite and lanthanides… minerals that are so rare and exotic that the civilized world is now completely addicted to them.
Minerals that are almost completely controlled by communist China.
Minerals that China wants for… what?
To make a “Chinese Prius”?
Rare earth minerals now effectively run the world. There is not a car window or child’s pajama that does not depend upon this “Pixie Dust.” In the race to miniaturize and mobilize our communications, rare earth minerals, properly deployed, offer in ounces and inches what traditional sources can only offer in pounds and feet.
Imagine − without rare earth minerals our phones would be the weight and size of 2 bricks!
For investors with a small grub stake in a rare earth mine I’ll tell you about in a moment, this is news that is both terrifying and thrilling in equal measure.
Terrifying because the implication for the freedom of the West are dire indeed.
And thrilling because the prospect of making ten, twenty even 50 times your money on one stock is a life-changing experience.
Rare − indeed!
And quite possible − if you simply hold out your hands and grasp this opportunity boldly.
Indeed, I’ve seen just such gains happen repeatedly in the natural resource business.
Gold, silver, platinum, oil, uranium… even timber and corn − I’ve spent my life mining for wealth in "things."
Because you invent “profit.” You can imagine margin.
Just ask Morgan Stanley or the U.S. Treasury!
But you cannot invent a pound of yellow cake uranium where none exists. You cannotconjure a ton of silver or a barrel of oil reserves or a cargo ship laden with beef, pig iron, or corn syrup.
