Kidman Resources has advised that it has secured electric car maker Tesla as a foundation client for its proposed lithium hydroxide processing plant in Western Australia. Growing interest in electric cars has created strong demand for commodities like lithium and cobalt that are used in their batteries. Kidman has indicated that its initial deal with Tesla will run for three years, with the option for two three-year extensions.
