    • Nevada's extinct supervolcano may hold largest lithium deposit in the world

    • The Thacker Pass Lithium Mine is located in Humboldt County, about 25 miles from the Nevada-Oregon border. The proposed mine covers 9 square miles of public land, and would operate on one of the largest lithium deposits in the U.S. The Thacker Pass deposit sits within an extinct supervolcano — the McDermitt Caldera.

    Bit off topic, but a few days ago while waiting at the Doctor's office I was reading a Car and Driver magazine.
    A story about EV of the year caught my eye, so read it.
    No Tesla, it was the Ford Mustang.
    They loved it.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    Watched an interview of a protester living on that piece of land. Of course he is using lp/propane to heat and cook.
    It should be a rule these protesters live without the products and services they want to deny rest of the world. I'll bet there is a gas powered car at that camp also.

    In this interview I think the protester claimed it cost 50x the climate change emissions to produce a lithium battery powered car than it did to make an ice car.

    I’d bet he’s got a cell phone and at least one cordless tool.
