RE:Critical Mineral Partnership Good find Sam. This is why it's obvious why Mark leans to the Koreans being the leaders to be first offtake partners. They are creating a massive EV/battery production system over the last 5 years that needs decades of steady nickel supply.
They will want to dominate North America as well. In this dicey geopolitical enviroment you cannot depend on China anymore for your metals contracts and Korea is the one with the highest risk.
