[DeTomaso] NPC but interesting, huge lithium deposit found in US

[Ken Green]

Julian,

    Is this the "solid state" you are referring to:

Interesting, I hope someone in the US gets the patents and doesn't sell to China.

  Ken,

  Lithium is a very abundant element, mostly recovered from brines e.g.
  the Salton Sea in CA is a large sources, Chile & Argentina also have
  large reserves. But Lithium is only a small percentage of current
  battery chemistry and Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries are not
  economically recyclable yet as a regenerative source of lithium.

  The big battery manufacturers are all partnered with US OEM's and
  setting up production in the US with government funding. However, the
  EPA has such stringent conditions on handling mixed metal oxides, most
  of the recyclable materials will likely be forced back off shore for
  processing, thereby creating a constant reliance on other countries for
  battery materials.

  I do believe current battery chemistry will change to solid state and
  lithium will likely become redundant.

  I have no interest in electric vehicles, but am fine with others buying
  them if my tax $s are not subsidizing them.
  I think China has scavenged mineral resource ownership all over the
  world, but if this is real, at least we won't be buying batteries from
  China;
