Just for all us Qspiracy theorists. So many stories out there about Chimney Rock and Lithium deposits, many suggesting eminent domain activity ongoing. While it is rumored that North Carolinians are being “bullied” out of their land for the purpose of getting at the lithium, be aware that NC is not the only place in the US with large lithium deposits. Nevada has the only currently operating lithium mines in US. They are in Clayton Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada in operation since 1967. Nevada is also home to the world’s largest lithium deposit, which was recently discovered in the McDermitt Caldera along the Nevada-Oregon border. The deposit is estimated to contain 20–40 million metric tonnes of lithium. Deposits also in volcanic ash rich Pennsylvania. NC has deposits in Bessemer City and Kings Mountain. Finally, one of the few lithium deposits in the U.S. currently found in hard rock (which means it is higher-quality and faster to process than lithium mined from brine) is on Plumbago Mountain (Plumbago North) in Maine.
I am questioning any articles reference nc lithium deposits and skulduggery because NC is not the only source of US lithium.
