Lithium. Lithium is an element valuable for the production of glass, aluminum products, and batteries. It is mined from ores of petalite LiAl(Si 2 O 5) 2, lepidolite K(Li,Al) 3 (Al,Si,Rb) 4 O 10 (F,OH) 2, spodumene LiAl(SiO 3) 2 and also subsurface brines. Australia and Chile are the world's largest producers of lithium.

Lithium is a soft, silver-white coloured, and the lightest alkaline metal with an atomic weight of 6.939. Lithium compounds such as lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide and lithium bromide are used in glass, ceramics, lubricant and grease manufacturing to improve extreme temperature resistance, in aluminium production, as catalysts in the pharmaceutical and rubber industries, and in …

the United States. Chile also has lithium mineral reserves, as does Australia. Another source of lithium is from recycled batteries. When lithium-ion batteries begin to power vehicles, it is expected that battery recycling rates will increase because vehicle battery recycling systems can be used to produce new lithium-ion batteries.

Lithium is an alkali metal that occurs naturally in some groundwater where that groundwater interacts with lithium-containing minerals or saline water. Elevated levels of lithium were found primarily in samples of untreated groundwater from drinking-water wells in arid regions and in "old" groundwater—that is, groundwater that recharged ...

Lithium (Li) is one of the 35 critical mineral resources identified by USGS as necessary to the U.S. economy and national security. Lithium is mined from pegmatites, brines, and clays, but it is the production from brines that dominates international supply. The U.S. has one mine in Nevada that produces lithium from a brine but the output is ...
