There is endless amounts of lithium deposit everywhere. A lithium deposit is essentially worthless.

What matters in lithium industry, is chemical processing. Nobody cares about a lithium mining company. What matters is lithium processing.

Lithium is not like a base metal, its more like a specialty chemical. The output from every mine is unique, there is not overall standard. Each output from each mine has to be qualified with each major battery manufacturer.

Nevada has 100s of billion of dollars worth of lithium by itself probably.

This will almost certainty not be mined. Making money from this kind of rock is difficult in the first place and doing it in a place with little mining industry makes that even worse.

Edit:

If you want insight into lithium industry, I recommend 'Global Lithium Podcast' by a guy that has been in that business for many decades and has worked for all the many of the major producers.
