Does olivine nickel have a vantage over iron nickel deposits ?
The answer is - yes - if one applies carbon credits.
Two ways to incease profits - 1- design a mine using all green energy would allow
a miner to accumilate carbon ( credits ) inwhich one
could sell to another for - $$$$$$
river = green energy comes to mind.
2- ore geology
having magnesium in ores absorbs co2
olivines also host other minerals other than Mg
It is said, 1 tonne of olivine ore can - absorb - 1 tonne co2
1:1 ratio
Jun 15, 2021 — "It absorbs CO2 very easily," van Dongen told Dezeen. "One tonne of olivine sand can take in up to one tonne of CO2, depending on the conditions .. LINK -

If one has " olivine ores " it can capture co2 inwhich to gain more
credits - which places "
olivine nickel " deposits with a -
vantage. If a miner chose to use green energy,
and has no co2 to capture...
it gains credits... but could be very useful to a nearby business or
other miner who wishes to reduce their - carbon.
One would need to transport thier co2 to the miner who can store it.
Or... what if one designed - reusable - hard poly containers that
hosted the olivine fine ores - which could be shipped to nearby
other miners who could - load - their carbon into the - ores -
and shipped back to, original mine for storage ?
The shipping back and forth,
would be the cost factor inwhich drives costs up.
Not unless, other miners cpatured their co2 and placed into
large propane style tanks - large truck style.
preassurized to contain more co2 -
then... ship to miner who has olivine ores ?
The trick here is....
finding another nearby - business - who needs co2 seq
with a distance that makes it - profitable.
Second trick...
some companies say,
it takes several hours to deq co2 into the ores..
thus... reducing the amount of co2 that can be
seq in a 24. day.
Evenstil,
as one can see... seq co2 can act as a vantage,
to apply against - cost per tonne - of nickel if one
has olivine ores... the final $$$$ savings is hard to
determine - one would need ot test the ores - kn owing,
all ores have diff geology -
In the Langmuir area....
most of the ores run 2% - 14% ( Mg )
In 2021, the federally mandated minimum price is C$40 (US$31) per ton of CO
2-equivalent, but that will
increase steadily to C$170 (US$133) per ton in 2030. The Clean Fuel Standard, set to be implemented in
early 2023, will create a cap-and-trade system to encourage decreasing the lifecycle carbon intensity of fuels sold in Canada. The required rate of carbon intensity reduction has changed in
variousiterations of the proposed regulations, but the
most recent requires refiners to reduce 2.4 grams of CO
2-equivalent per megajoule (gCO
2e/MJ) of energy in the first year, which will increase to 12 gCO
2e/MJ by 2030.

How to seq much more co2....
but... my cell phone is a flip phone...lol
I can\t use the prompts to contact - evni.
Wish i had another evni - number - i'd discuss it
with Sean...
Could be a great idea...
Patentable... sell it to other miners or, Gov't ...
Use it as a standard for other businesses.
Cheers....
