Check your zipper. . .

Yeah, that's what I said... because if it says YKK on it, then it is made with zinc ... zinc from Timmins. It's kind of interesting at this time because all these huge foreign mining companies are trying to buy Falconbridge. Everyone thinks its just for nickel. But Falconbridge is more than that. The massive Kidd mine in Timmins is not merely one of the largest silver mines in the world; it also produces copper and zinc. And if your jeans or jacket or whatever has a YKK Zipper, then it's using metals from the Kidd mine. Oh yeah, Kidd also produces the metals for all the Duracell batteries in North America. Cool eh.
