THE EDSEL FACTOR

The most obvious can sometimes
be completely overlooked. There
are hard facts that support the
fact that Lithium will become
unavailable for the production
of Lithium Ion batteries for the
EV's and Hybrid's of the future or
the present

The folly of dependance on LIthium
ion batteries for a power storage
source or as a bridge technology
until a more enduring technology
is developed is not a secret.
Until Fuel cell Batteries are in
production or an alternate source
is developed the EV market may
collapse.

This adds fuel to the theory that a
giant auto maker may face another
crisis. This mega auto producer
may be marching towards it's
decline as a world market leader.

There are great reserves of the heavy
metal Lithium in sea water but the
enormous cost of extracting it is
off the charts. There is no evidence
that this reserve will ever be utilized.

There is even less evidence that
the existing Lithium mines in
South America can deliver the goods
in less than 20 years. The reserves are
there but the infrastructure is not.
There is a complete absence of an
infrastructure central to these mines
and the political climate is less than
friendly for foreign capital.

to get some facts from Meridian International
Research from a well researched paper
on Lithium reserves. This fact filled article
is worth reading if you are planing to buy
an EV in the future. My advice would be to
wait about 20 years unless you have an
excess of expendable income.

THE PAPER BY MR.WILLAM TAHILL
AT MERIDIAN INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH
IS SEEMINGLY A FRANK REPORT ON
THE AVAILABILITY NOW AND
IN THE FUTURE FOR LITHIUM. BELIEVABLE
OR NOT IT IS A FACT FILLED REPORT THAT
EVERYONE SHOULD CONSIDER READING.
