    There has been relatively little exploration for lithium. I don’t think we have a clue where the largest deposits are at this time.

      And? The US is saying this one is important, and that’s all they’ll need. The truth doesn’t exactly matter to them.

      Consent for future wars won’t be manufactured on “spreading democracy” because that lie has lost whatever credibility it once had. It will be done exactly how this article is building the case for it: “fighting climate change”.

      As for known reserves, in order the richest are in the Andes mountain range split between Bolivia, Argentina, and Chille, with moderate reserves known in the US, Australia, and China.

      Thus far the nations who have best taken advantage of their deposits are Australia, who has been able leverage their large experience with Coal, and Chile, which while poor has the advantage of being 27th on the gobal corruption perception index as compared to 95th or 126th.
