Tesla should DEFFINATELY make a deal with IVANHOE MINES, THE BEST PRODUCTION, DEVELOPMENT AND EXPLORATION MINING COMPANY IN THE WORLD, BAR NONE. IVN has, the LARGEST, RICHEST COPPER DEPOSITS, IN THE WORLD AT K&K, CURRENTLY IN DVELOPMENT THE WORLDS RICHEST AND LARGEST PRECIOUS METAL/BASE METAL DEPOSIT CALLED PLATREEF, AND IN DEVELOPMENT THE RICHEST ZINC MINE IN THE WORLD. I mean WOWWWWWW. If they want to get the basic materials for ANY of their plants, be it ev cars, batteries, IVN HAS THE RICHEST, BIGEST AND GREENEST OF THEM ALL.
Musk is wayyyyy behind gthe curve here. If he doesn't make a deal with someone for the COPPER for instance he will need down the road, he will NOT be able to build all those EV'S he is talking about and since you need the metals, why not make a deal withe BEST, IN THE WORLD. Come on Musk, stop tweeting and get to WORK before it's too late. LOL
