Lithium isn’t problematic on its own. They can take enough of it from the Salton Sea without any mining.

- pfdietz 2y agoI want to note the lithium there is not from the Salton Sea itself, but from geothermal brines in the rock under the sea. The area is a place of active volcanism so the brines are quite hot and have dissolved many interesting minerals.
