Alongside its goal to reduce pollution from driving, Tesla is also striving to reduce its own carbon footprint.

“Tesla will give you a giant contract for a long period of time if you mine nickel efficiently and in an environmentally sensitive way,” CEO Elon Musk said in July.

Giga Metals's GIGA.V low carbon nickel plans include turning waste from its mining operations into cement type rock using carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and using hydropower.

Giga Metals’s President Martin Vydra declined to comment on any talks with Tesla, but said: “Giga is actively engaged, and has been for some time, with automakers regarding our ability to produce carbon neutral nickel.

“The cost of developing our project, excluding bringing hydroelectric power to the site, will be less than $1 billion.”

Tesla did not respond to requests for comment.
