FYI Thacker Pass is the largest lithium mining deposit in the US. Coincidentally, it’s right next to the Tesla Gigafactory.
“Trump officials are also on the verge of approving several mining projects, or significantly advancing their regulatory review process.
One of those, the Lithium Americas Thacker Pass project in Nevada, is expected to be approved on Jan. 15, according to an official at the Bureau of Land Management.
‘It’s been a good, collaborative process with state and federal authorities. We look forward to the decision,’ said Jon Evans, chief executive of Lithium Americas, which has been developing the project for more than a decade. Lithium is a key component of electric vehicle batteries.”
This is good news, right?!?
