Fracking Lithium
Carlos Velazquez
Verry interesting. Geologists have discovered what could be the largest supply of domestic lithium, certainly the most accessible, largest except for maybe the untapped lithium found in an extinct supervolcano in California.
They have discovered that fracking waste water contains vast amounts of lithium. Which should be an economic boost to Pennsylvania where most U.S. fracking is done. BTW, currently the U.S. imports most of its lithium from Chile and from Australia. Not China.
Quote: "Mackey and his colleagues have now found that when wastewater is dredged up from the deep by fracking activities, it contains an astonishing amount of lithium."
"We just didn't know how much was in there," says Mackey.
Note: Elon Musk has said that mining for lithium is like printing money.

Be careful! Biden and the leftists will do their best to torpedo this, even though it will help the production of their beloved toy electric cars! Mark my words! It's because somebody'll be able to make some money on it.

That's exactly what they will do Dana. EV's have never been about the environment and always about the New World Order.
