Around Indian Country Lithium deposit found at sacred site Scientists have found the world’s largest lithium deposit in an ancient supervolcano along the Nevada-Oregon border. The scientists announced they found Clay containing up to 40 million metric tons of the precious metal was identified throughout the 28-mile-long McDer mitt Caldera. That is nearly double what has been found in Bolivia’s salt flats that have long held the record for the most lithium deposits. As of 2022, the average bat- tery-grade lithium carbonate price was $37,000 per metric ton, mean- ing the volcano is potentially sit- ting on $1.48 trillion worth of the precious metal. Canada-based Lithium Ameri- cas Corporation plans to begin min- ing as early as 2026, mine the re- gion for the next 40 years, and then backfill the pit. However, the plan has been criticized due to the environmental impact of mining and claims that the site is on sa- cred Native American land. Lithium is a critical component for batteries that power everything from smartphones to electric ve- hicles and solar panels - and China has dominated the market for de- cades because 90 percent of the metal mined is refined in the na- tion.
