As the world goes electric, we’re going to need a whole lot more nickel to build batteries - which means we’re also going to need a whole lot more nickel mining. In Episode 2, we learn how nickel mining can be done properly, relative to our net-zero goals. Sustainable mining has become a reality, built from necessity - and with the recent investments and innovation, we’re seeing this once stigmatised industry now changing: from an obstacle to overcome, to an opportunity we can all embrace.


Topics discussed in this episode:
- Mining and the sustainability stigma | Interview with Lyle Trytten, Manager of Development at Giga Metals - former General Manager Sustainability at Sherritt Corporation [01:06]

- Sulphide vs. Lateritite | Interview with Lyle Trytten [06:08]

- Nickel mining and carbon sequestration | Interview with Dr. Greg Dipple, Professor of Geological Sciences at the University of British Columbia [11:38]

- The future: carbon-negative mining | Interview with Dr. Greg Dipple [14:14]
