True, at what price? All the so called recent “finds” are pipe dreams. It takes at least five years ( most likely ten years ) to turn deposits into producing mines.

Ukraine’s lithium mine that Vlad acquired is a producing operation. $$$. If, as he
does with his huge energy market, discounts it China and Russia will hold the lion’s share.

I am sure he will discount it, not so sure about China. Checkmate.

AI Overview

Russia Targets Ukraine’s Key Lithium Reserves
Ukraine possesses significant, albeit largely untapped, lithium reserves, particularly in the Kirovohrad and Donetsk regions. While the country is estimated to hold about 500,000 tons of lithium, roughly 2% of global reserves, these deposits are not currently being mined due to a combination of factors including the war, lack of investment, and technological challenges.

Lithium Reserves: Russia+Ukraine+China = 4.5 Mt

USA = 14 Mt

You could use some lithium. Maybe one of those high-dose rapid-delivery brands.

"Lithium bloop, blopp bloop bloppd mining a bloopity bloop bloop blopp. Putlim putlim Bloop."

You post the dumbest shit, you say the dumbest shit. I'd call you the dumbest, shittiest Freeptard in Free Republic history, but you're not a Freeper, you're just an ordinary old troll. ESAD.
