19 million tons? That should last a year. Maybe two.

Leftists will ban mining for lithium there, while they also demand we transition to depending solely on EV’s and “green” power for the grid (all of which would rely on batteries).

The question is, can they steer a hurricane that far inland so that companies like Blackrock can buy up the land for pennies on the dollar? /sarc

Look out Arkansas, an unnatural disaster could be in the making for you.

Wherever lithium lies it seems unnatural disasters seem to just happen. 🤔😕

“... 5.1 to 19 million tons of lithium...”

Okay, but how much dirt is gonna have to be moved to get this much lithium?

Then the coal company came with the world’s largest shovel

And they tortured the timber and stripped all the land

Well, they dug for their coal ‘til the land was forsaken

Then they wrote it all down as the progress of man

There are lithium deposits all over the US. But, every time there is an attempt to harvest and drive down the cost of CCP imports, the politicos stop any further effort. Politicos’ relatives are heavily invested in CCP efforts, and such cannot withstand competition.

No worry, the EPA will never allow it out of the ground, especially after the checks from China clear in Congress.

Environmentalist whackos will stop any attemps to access this resource. Ditto for the critical rare earth and helium deposits recently found in Minnesota.

"Researchers say Arkansas may have 19M tons of lithium critical for battery power"

I misread that at first as "lithium crystal."
