I understand only two countries in the world have significant lithium deposits, Chile and Peru, while China is thought to have some, as well. If so, wouldn't relying on them for large amounts of this relatively rare mineral simply be courting the advent of OLEC? And I doubt that nickel battery technology is standing still. Besides, it's a relatively abundant mineral, as well.
