Answer
Pure elemental cobalt costs $21.00/100 grams ($US). That's approximately $200 per kilogram or about a hundred bucks a pound (roughly). It's a bit cheaper in quantity.
Cobalt is not particularly rare, and it is recovered commercially in many locations at modest cost. Cobalt is an essential industrial metal. It is a "must-have" for many, many applications.
