The Price of Chrome in South Africa
The price of chrome tripling between 1950 and 1980 from $20 to $63 as you can imagine a ripple effect throughout the economy. In 2000 it went back down to $65 very close to what I was in 1980 so 80 was 63 1990 was up to $90 a ton but in 2000 down to 65 by 2015. Almost everything. It started off at $20 in 1950 30 years later by 1980 it was by the way still around about 20 in 1960 it was actually $19 a ton.
