A few years ago, heard not enough lithium is around, now we find out differently.
Likely is more than that there. Lithium estimates keep rising

I don't know if these lithium batteries are the future, just because they sort of work today, they have so many dangers, and are slow to charge and where is the time and power going to come from. They are looking to replace fuels which work well all because some people think the world is about to be destroyed in another global flood event.

Scripturally God said the first destruction by flood is done, the second to come is by fire.


A 'white gold' mine containing $540 billion in treasures has been discovered at the bottom of a giant lake in Southern California.

The Salton Sea, which is the largest lake in the US state was being studied by scientists as part of research funded by the Department of Energy.


The study aimed to find how much lithium, also known as 'white gold due to its white sand-like appearance, was at the bottom of the huge body of water.

Amazingly there was a lot of it - an unbelievable 18 million tons are believed to be sitting at the bottom of the lake. This was after scientists had already confirmed that four million tons of lithium were in the lake, which were discovered through a drilling process.

Such is the vast quantity of lithium discovered in the lake, it would be possible to create batteries for a staggering 382 million electric vehicles and make the United States the leading nation in the chemical, overtaking China.




Michael McKibben, a geochemistry professor at the University of California, Riverside, who was one of the 22 authors on the study said: "This is one of the largest lithium brine deposits in the world. This could make the United States completely self-sufficient in lithium and stop importing it through China."
