   conservation is a good and necessary idea. We’ll still need lithium to meet green energy goals. Each of the circle irrigation systems in this photo of Thacker pass is about half a mile wide. The proposed mine would be 10x10 of those circles in size. It’s the largest lithium deposit in the US. Could supply 25% of world’s Lithium needs for green energy.
