"Pick up any device and it will be jam packed with critical minerals from
lithium, copper, aluminium, nickel, carbon and graphite to cobalt and
manganese. However, as the core ingredients for electric vehicles, their mining
is often cited as a principle argument against the adoption of EVs. In
response, the
Fully Charged Show has argued that mining can be decarbonised,
critical materials can be recycled and the impact of mining is less carbon
intensive than the extraction of oil and gas and is inherently more circular.
So we thought it was time to put this to the test and visited a copper mine in
British Columbia to understand more about their decarbonisation efforts, and
most notably to see some GINORMOUS 230 Tonne Komatsu e-230 e-trolley electric
trucks. Safe to say, these are the biggest and most impressive electric
vehicles we’ve seen to date!!"
