Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Jindali Resources, i helu ʻia ma ka ASX, ua lilo kāna waihona lithium McDermitt (McDermitt, latitude: 42.02°, longitude: -118.06°) ma Oregon i waihona lithium nui loa ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.
I kēia manawa, ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ka lithium carbonate o ka papahana ma mua o 10.1 miliona tons.
ʻO ka piʻi ʻana o ka nui o nā kumuwaiwai ma muli nui o ka piʻi ʻana o ka hana ʻeli a me ka pono o ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka hapa lua o 2020, a ua hāʻule ka māka ʻoki mai 0.175% a i 0.1%.
I kēia manawa, ua ʻoi aku ʻo McDermett ma mua o ka waihona ʻo Thacker Pass (Latitude: 41.71°, Longitude: -118.07°) o Lithium Americas, nona ka lithium carbonate e like me 8.3 miliona tons (ʻoki ʻia). 0.2%).
ʻO ka nui o nā kumuwaiwai ʻaihao McDermite he 1.43 biliona tone, me ka awelika o ka nui o ka lithium he 0.132%. ʻAʻole i komo ke kino ʻaihao. ʻO ka pahuhopu ʻimi a ka hui he 1.3 biliona a 2.3 biliona tone, a ʻo ka pae lithium he 0.11%-0.15%.
Ua hoʻonohonoho ʻia ka hana ʻeli aʻe no ka hapaha ʻekolu. (Yangtze River Nonferrous Metals Network)
