Why buy it when Brandon will just give it to China?
15 - 20 years before a mine ships anything....if it happens at all
I guess them plan to dump it back into the volcano from whence it came. Worked for Frodo.
Quick ... let's go over there and have grilled lizard for dinner.
Nasty process and the tribes are already working to stop it. There is one near silver Peak NV.
After the enviro-protests, leftist political grandstanding, law-suits and up-and-down market cycles - this mine will be operational by the year 2080
I thought it was the 3 legged, purple bellied, yellow beaked farkle frog which, although never seen, is rumored to live on 3 square yards somewhere in the mining area..so it all must be shut down..
Time to declare the area a national monument/park/preserve. Lock it up, baby. Its for the children; its for the planet; its for the climate.
Any word on whether the engines are accepting us Gringos to help them fight off Lithium mining?

Very doubtful since the Biden will move quickly to make it a National Monument offlimits to mining.
Biden will put it off limits to mining.
I suppose 40 million metric tons would make it less rare...
PEAK Lithium
“Or, will mining the Li harm the butter-backed nutcracker fly?”
Guaranteed some Gaia worshipping nut somewhere is already working on a way to shut it down. Shutting down industry and progress is better than sex for those moonbats.
Now if they only had a battery technology that didn’t burst in to flames.
Hunter Biden is already negotiating with the Chi-Coms on how many hundreds of millions it will take for Joe Biden to block access to this Lithium for the next 100 years...
The idea of pushing ev’s right now is really because they do not want the masses to have a car for their own use.
EVs don’t save the planet because they need electricity and a huge electrical grid powered by fossil fuels or nuke energy to power evs for all. Windmills and solar panels aren’t going to cut it.
Oh and where are they dumping giant old windmill parts and beat up old solar panels?
What a bunch of hooey.
and if it isn’t allowed to be mined, so what...
Save the Lithium.
Save ICEs.
Drill baby drill.
Don’t let ‘Rats use any petroleum products.
May them and only them pay the cost of food should it produced without fertilizers.
