potentially bad news for Bolivia, depending on how difficult it is to extract, I suppose. good for domestic LiFePO4 cell production though...

Or perhaps just good news for EV aficiandos everywhere. It seems to me that there's enough demand for all the lithium there is.

exactly good news, hopefully not being monopolize to control the market pricing later

cause i can imagine the "cheap" abundances of battery will only accelerate the EV adoption

It's certainly bad news for the development of more environmentaly friendly battery technology.
