Piedmont Lithium has announced a binding contract with Tesla to supply spodumene concentrate (SC6) from its North Carolina deposit. Spodumene is a lithium mineral containing between 1.9 and 3.7 per cent lithium oxide (source: German Raw Materials Agency) whereby commercially marketed concentrates have a higher percentage.<\/p>\n<p>The contract between Piedmont and Tesla has an initial term of five years from initial delivery and represents a binding purchase commitment at a fixed price. The contract can be extended by mutual agreement for a further five years. With this contract, Tesla secures access to approximately one-third of Piedmont&#8217;s planned SC6 production of 160,000 tons per year, making up about 53,000 tons per year. Further quantities are to be supplied if Tesla so requires.<\/p>\n<p>In announcing the deal, Piedmont the two partners have set the boundaries for the date of the first delivery. Here the agreement is that date will be set between July 2022 and July 2023 based on the development plans of both parties.<\/p>\n<p>In line with this time frame and also plans of localising sourcing whenever possible, the Californian electric car and truck manufacturer has purchased another 150 hectares of land near Austin. It is where Tesla is currently building the Gigafactory for the Cybertruck, the Semi and the Model Y. <em>The Statesman<\/em> reported the purchase referring to land registry entries. Tesla has already purchased 800 hectares of land in Austin but is still looking for more land nearby. After Battery Day, this naturally feeds rumours about another Terafactory where Tesla could manufacture the cells of the new type 4680.<\/p>\n<p><em>With reporting by Sebastian Schaal, Germany.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.koreatimes.co.kr\/www\/tech\/2020\/09\/419_296818.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">koreatimes.co.kr<\/a> (LG-Chem rumours), <a href=\"https:\/\/d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net\/_5cf613bb74387f80ac18a83aeb503a54\/piedmontlithium\/db\/336\/2620\/pdf\/2118399.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">piedmontlithium.com<\/a> (Lithium-contract), <a href=\"https:\/\/teslamag.de\/news\/giga-texas-gigantischer-tesla-mehr-land-neben-riesen-grundstueck-30230\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">teslamag.de<\/a> (property purchase in Texas)<\/p>\n"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140409","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=140409"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140409\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/119717"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=140409"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=140409"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=140409"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
