  1. Good luck! Hopefully whoever is leading the project, in full cooperation with the government, will minimize the ecological damage.

    Well, in Portugal we have the largest european litium reserves.

    And there are plans to explore it,

    But environmental laws and activists don’t let the exploration start (like they did with dams, oil and gas, forests).

    We will remain poor as always.

    Because of the colonial era mining laws, the mining company will take the profits and Finland will pay the infrastructure and cleanup during and after.

  4. Looks like lots of lithium will be coming on stream in the next few years. In the UK, Imerys British Lithium aims to produce up to 21,000 tonnes a year from lithium granites in mid-Cornwall, and further West, Cornish Lithium has a plan to extract energy and lithium from geothermal brines at Union Downs near Redruth.

    Hopefully we can produce it more cleanly than lot of the competition. Clean lithium would do a lot in world with ever increasing amount of electronics.
    Even just “less bad” would be good step forwards.

    *Finland. The company is owned by the infamous South African mining giant Sibanye Stillwater.

    Lithium prices are crashing and a lot of more capacity is scheduled to come online. So many producers will go bankrupt.

    Hasn’t the arse just fallen out of the lithium market? Was just reading about how lithium miners in Australia are struggling.
