 abstract={Cobalt- due to its unique properties and diverse applications, especially in high technologies - is recognised as a strategic metal. The article discusses prospects and possible limitations of this metal utilisation in the future as well as the demand forecast until 20 I O. The most promising from the view-point of future cobalt consumption is the development of rechargeable Li-ion batteries, hybrid gas-electric vehicles, superalloys, catalysts, cemented carbides and diamond tools. The most important phenomena observed in the global market in recent decades were abo characterised, e.g. depreciation of African countries position and the move of major centres of cobalt production and consumption from Western Europe and the USA to Asia, especially vigorous China. Statistics of trade and consumption of cobalt in Poland as well as prospects for its market development there were also briefly presented.},
