Australia’s Kuniko said on Monday it had signed an offtake and equity investment agreement with Franco-Italian automaker Stellantis.

Stellantis has agreed to invest 5 million euros ($5.45 million) in the battery metals miner in return for a near 20% stake.

The carmaker will also get 35% of future production of nickel sulphate and cobalt sulphate from Kuniko’s Norway exploration projects for nine years, Kuniko said in a statement.
