RE:World is waking up to nickel Agreed.
IMO, the use of class 1 nickel for uses like stainless steel production would be like using 94 octane gasoline in your lawn mower. A waste of time and effort, and this would also result in less class 1 available (already limited, and shortages anticipated as ev sales continue to grow) for specialized uses such as ev batteries.
this would definitely be misleading- class 2 supply in abundance, while class 1 supply is constrained
