Right–that's the topic of the GAO report I found. Total US demand of about 300 kg/year of lithium-7, for [⁷Li]OH. They specifically call out the FLiBe molten-salt reactors because they need orders of magnitude more lithium-7; they worried (as of 2013) the Chinese MSR could cause a supply crunch that would affect US PWR's.
