Li from brines is so different from hard rock mining, especially where the wells are already present as in CHU's case, and where the sampling has already been performed.

The big problem is economic recovery of the Li and byproducts.

Interesting thread.

I'd just point out that lithium recycling hasn't begun in a large scale but at some price, it will be a major source of lithium. The recovery rates are around 90%. When I looked at this a few years ago I didn't find any easy way to invest.
