More child labor for cobalt?
This article seems to be 2-years-old. This is the first I've heard of an abundant new source of rare earth metals other than those owned or controlled by China. Seems unusual that a topic so important wouldn't have more exposure. I mean, the rare-earth scarcity was a pretty big issue, wasn't it?Looks like rare earth metals are no longer a problem from either the political or abundance standpoint;
Japan finds a huge cache of scarce rare-earth minerals
Japan looks to replace China as the primary source of critical metals
Another dolt that never bothers to read anything that they reply to.More child labor for cobalt?

A point well taken. Developing a way to take advantage of this huge resource is taking time, but it is being done.This article seems to be 2-years-old.

Yes, there is a lot more oil to be obtained, all at continually increasing cost. In the meantime the cost of EV's is coming down every year. Soon, oil will be valuable as an industrial feedstock, and we will not need nearly as much.Another dolt that never bothers to read anything that they reply to.More child labor for cobalt?Earth Is An Oil-Producing Machine — We're Not Running Out

So now you think it's a good idea to strip mine the sea bed and pollute ocean water? ...A matter of engineering. The resource is too valuable to not mine.
Tell me when you can pick up a decent ICE for a grand. Already, Tesla's basic 3 is below the average price of an ICE. As the Chinese manufactures EV's, the European EV's, and the EV's from Ford and GM come on the market, they will rapidly reduce in price. By 2025, they will easily have achieved price parity with the ICE's.Tell me when I can pick one up for a grandYes, there is a lot more oil to be obtained, all at continually increasing cost.

Since that mining would be at 18,000 ft. it will be far less damaging to the ocean environment that many present fishing practices in shallower water.So now you think it's a good idea to strip mine the sea bed and pollute ocean water? ...A matter of engineering.

One producing mine at present, and two more I know of that Tesla is involved in starting up. And the one on the Oregon-Nevada border has the potential to produce enough lithium to supply 25% of the world's needs for over 40 years. Nevada Mine Could Produce 25% of World's LithiumHow many productive lithium mines are there in America, and how successful will the CCP's lawfare attacks continue to keep them unproductive?
