In this episode, mining and commodities expert Mikhail Zeldovich joins host Constantin Kogan for a rare deep dive into the real engines of the global economy — critical minerals, geopolitics, and the future of resource investing.From BCG to Rio Tinto to negotiating in Beijing and analyzing assets in remote mining camps, Mikhail brings nearly two decades of on-the-ground experience across metals, energy transition, and global supply chains.He breaks down:⚒️ How he “accidentally” entered mining at BCG — and why he never left
There's a lot to keep on the docket for Friday's trading action. Kevin Green helps round up all the data for investors. In the latest University of Michigan consumer sentiment report, the figure came in lower than the prior number but still beat Wall Street's estimates. However, KG notes ISM manufacturing continuing to contract as something investors need to watch. He later pins the slide in lithium stocks to a major mine in China reopening. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Interview with Stephen Hanson, President & CEO of Surface Metals Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/surface-metals-csesur-former-lithium-player-pivots-to-nevada-gold-with-walker-lane-project-7467Recording date: 21st November 2025Surface Metals Inc. (CSE: SUR) has strategically positioned itself across two commodity cycles through its April 2025 acquisition of the Cimarron gold project in Nevada whilst maintaining a diversified lithium portfolio anchored by a 300,000+ ton LCE resource at Clayton Valley, California. This dual-commodity approach provides investors with exposure to gold's current bull market and lithium's structural electrification demand.Following recent meetings on Wall Street and Bay Street, President and CEO Steve Hanson reports renewed institutional appetite for junior and mid-cap mining opportunities. Major banks including JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, UBS, Deutsche Bank, and HSBC forecast gold reaching $5,000 per ounce in 2026, driven by central bank accumulation, interest rate dynamics, and geopolitical tensions. Simultaneously, lithium markets show stabilisation following the 2023-2024 correction, with institutional interest returning to quality projects.The Cimarron gold project, located in Nevada's prolific Walker Lane trend approximately 35 kilometres south of Kinross's Round Mountain mine, benefits from extensive historical work conducted by Newmont and Echo Bay during the 1980s-1990s. Surface Metals has digitised this historical database and created three-dimensional geological models, positioning the company to commence phase one drilling in early 2026 with clear targeting rationale. The programme aims to confirm historical high-grade intercepts, validate a non-43-101 compliant resource, and expand towards a million-ounce target. Shallow oxide mineralisation suggests potential heap leach processing economics - a lower-cost development pathway relevant for junior companies.Surface Metals' lithium portfolio demonstrates geographic and geological diversification across three projects. The Clayton Valley brine project sits immediately northwest of Albemarle's Silver Peak operation - North America's only producing lithium brine facility operational since 1966. The company targets a preliminary economic assessment in 2026, evaluating direct lithium extraction technology offering faster processing and higher recovery versus traditional evaporation ponds. Neighbouring operator SLB's 2025 demonstration facility successfully produced lithium from similar brine chemistry, de-risking technology application.Fish Lake Valley represents exposure to sedimentary claystone lithium mineralisation, sitting contiguous to Ioneer's Rhyolite Ridge project backed by Ford, Toyota, and Panasonic offtakes with 2026 construction commencement planned. Surface Metals actively seeks joint venture partners to fund initial drilling. In Manitoba, NASDAQ-listed Snow Lake Resources earns into the company's pegmatite project through funded exploration whilst Surface Metals maintains carried interest without capital outlay.Capital efficiency distinguishes Surface Metals' approach. The company has reduced operational costs whilst advancing projects through partnership structures and targeted technical work avoiding dilutive capital raises during unfavourable market conditions. Sector consolidation reduced lithium-focused companies from 200-250 to approximately 60, with Surface Metals amongst survivors maintaining intact portfolio positioning to capture recovery momentum.Management contemplates multiple value realisation pathways including asset sales, joint ventures, or corporate restructuring to separate gold and lithium portfolios. In market conditions where commodities experience distinct cycles, portfolio separation could unlock valuation disparities whilst providing shareholders direct exposure to preferred commodity themes.All projects benefit from tier-one North American jurisdictions with established infrastructure, proximity to operating mines, and relatively streamlined permitting. Nevada exploration permits typically achieved in 90-120 days. As gold supply deficits emerge from major producers exhausting high-grade reserves, and lithium supply security achieves strategic priority, Surface Metals' portfolio positioning addresses structural market dynamics favouring quality junior mining opportunities in premier jurisdictions.View Surface Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/acme-lithiumSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Et si le Bas-Rhin devenait le nouvel eldorado du lithium en France ? Entre Obernai et Erstein, trente-quatre communes sont concernées par un projet d'exploration ambitieux porté par la société Lithium de France. L'entreprise, installée à Haguenau, espère obtenir deux permis exclusifs de recherche sur un territoire de 175 kilomètres carrés : l'un pour le lithium et ses substances associées, baptisé « permis des Coteaux Minéraux », et l'autre pour la géothermie profonde, sobrement nommé « permis des Coteaux ». Deux ressources différentes, mais complémentaires — car là où la chaleur de la terre circule, les saumures géothermales peuvent aussi contenir du lithium, ce métal devenu stratégique pour la production de batteries.Les deux dossiers, déposés le 30 avril 2024 auprès du ministère de l'Économie, sont désormais soumis à consultation publique. À partir du 24 novembre, les habitants auront cinq semaines, jusqu'au 29 décembre 2025, pour donner leur avis via une plateforme en ligne. Cette consultation n'a rien d'une formalité : chaque contribution sera compilée dans un rapport transmis au ministre des Mines, aujourd'hui sous la tutelle de Bercy. Ce dernier prendra la décision finale après avis du Conseil général de l'économie. Trois issues sont possibles : accorder un permis, les deux, ou aucun.Sur le terrain, les enjeux sont multiples. Pour Lithium de France, il s'agit de sonder le sous-sol alsacien pendant cinq ans afin d'en évaluer le potentiel économique et environnemental. Pour les élus locaux et les habitants, la question est tout autre : comment concilier l'exploitation de ressources critiques avec la protection d'un territoire déjà sensible, marqué par les débats sur la géothermie profonde ? Le dossier est actuellement examiné par le Bureau de la politique des ressources minérales non énergétiques, basé à La Défense. Si les autorisations sont accordées, le Bas-Rhin pourrait bien devenir un maillon clé de la souveraineté minérale française — et pourquoi pas, un futur bastion de la batterie “made in France”.

In der Podcastreihe „Globale Zukünfte“ fragt Michael, ob es Orte auf der Welt gibt, von denen aus sich die großen Krisen unserer Zeit – Klima, Politik, Gesellschaft – neu denken lassen. Fünf Länder auf fünf Kontinenten sollen dafür den Blick weiten. Nach Neuseeland und Estland führt die dritte Etappe der Reise an das sprichwörtliche Ende der Welt: nach Chile.Ein Land, das in seiner Länge von Finnland bis Spanien reichen könnte, doch im Durchschnitt nur 120 Kilometer breit ist – und ebenso schmal scheint manchmal der Grat zwischen Hoffnung und Ernüchterung. Gesprächspartnerin Gitte Cullmann, Leiterin der Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung in Santiago de Chile, beschreibt ein Land voller Gegensätze: stabil und unruhig zugleich, von ungeheurer Energie und tiefen Widersprüchen durchzogen.Chile ist ein Land im Dauerzustand der Transformation. Nach den gewaltigen Protesten von 2019, den sogenannten Estallido Social, träumte die Gesellschaft von einem neuen Gesellschaftsvertrag. Zwei Anläufe für eine neue Verfassung – einer progressiv, einer konservativ – scheiterten. Der Wille zur Veränderung ist groß, die Angst davor ebenso. Zwischen neoliberaler Tradition und sozialer Erneuerung tastet sich das Land an ein neues Gleichgewicht heran.Hinter der Fassade wirtschaftlicher Stärke verbirgt sich eine der größten sozialen Ungleichheiten im OECD-Raum. Renten, Bildung, Gesundheit – alles ist privatisiert. Wer es sich nicht leisten kann, fällt durchs Raster. Das Chile der Chicago Boys war einst das Labor des Neoliberalismus. Heute kämpft es mit dessen Spätfolgen: hoher Verschuldung, schwindender Chancengleichheit und einer tiefen gesellschaftlichen Unzufriedenheit.Gleichzeitig ist Chile eines der rohstoffreichsten Länder der Welt – und könnte damit eine Schlüsselrolle in der globalen Energiewende spielen. Kupfer, Lithium, grüner Wasserstoff: kaum ein Land ist besser aufgestellt, um die Dekarbonisierung voranzutreiben. Doch noch wird zu wenig Wertschöpfung im eigenen Land gehalten. Gitte spricht von einem „Gefühl der ökologischen Kolonie“ – Europa profitiert von den Ressourcen, Chile trägt die ökologischen Kosten. Der Anspruch auf Partnerschaft „auf Augenhöhe“ bleibt oft ein Lippenbekenntnis.Auch die Klimakrise trifft das Land härter als viele andere. Dürren, Waldbrände, Wassermangel – Chile ist eines der verwundbarsten Länder der Erde. Doch die politische Aufmerksamkeit liegt anderswo. „Klimapolitik spielt im Wahlkampf keine Rolle“, sagt Gitte. Und doch zeigt sich in der Anpassungsfähigkeit der Chilenen eine Form der Resilienz, die Hoffnung macht. Katastrophen gehören zum Alltag – Erdbeben, Überschwemmungen, Brände. Die Menschen leben mit der Natur, nicht gegen sie. Diese Haltung teilt die indigene Bevölkerung schon seit Jahrhunderten.Indigene und nicht-indigene Perspektiven prallen aufeinander: hier der extraktivistische Blick des globalen Marktes, dort die Vorstellung von Pachamama, der Erde als Teil des eigenen Lebens. Diese unvereinbaren Weltbilder prägen die gesellschaftliche Debatte – und zeigen, dass Zukunft in Chile mehr ist als technologische Modernisierung. Sie ist ein kulturelles Aushandeln darüber, was Fortschritt bedeutet.Chile könnte ein Zukunftslabor werden – wenn es gelingt, gesellschaftliche Kreativität, ökologische Verantwortung und internationale Kooperation zu verbinden. Schon heute stammt über zwei Drittel der Energie aus erneuerbaren Quellen, Kohle ist fast Geschichte. Doch der Weg bleibt lang. Zukunft entsteht hier nicht aus Reichtum, sondern aus Bewegung.Chile ist dynamisch und divers – in seinen Landschaften, in seinen Ideen, in seinen Konflikten. Wer sich von Widersprüchen nicht abschrecken lässt, sondern von ihnen anregen lässt, wer Wandel nicht fürchtet, sondern sucht, findet hier vielleicht den spannendsten Zukunftsort der Welt: am Ende der Welt, wo die Zukunft schon begonnen hat.Zu Gast:

Dave Owens was/is the frontman for Lithium from Cape Town, a band who's reunited more than once but who I never got to see very often - despite their being one of my biggest early musical influences. He went on to form incredibly diverse projects including acoustic rockers N8ive, the nu-metal inspired Gimp, and most recently, the metallic PitVirus (alongside members of Vulvodynia). Lithium holds a special place in my heart, so this interview was an absolute joy to do! Thank you Dave. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jestli Evropská unie potřebuje lithium, ať si ho vytěží na svém území, třeba v Česku. Tento sentiment se šíří mezi Srby, kteří jsou proti vzniku nového dolu na svém území. Někteří dokonce viní Unii z kolaborace s vlastní vládou, proti které se v Srbsku vytrvale protestuje.Všechny díly podcastu Zaostřeno můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

Chris Temple, Editor and Publisher of the National Investor, joins us live at the New Orleans Investment Conference to delve into US policy around critical minerals, and to help us separate the signal from the noise from all the focus in bills and executive orders on copper, uranium, rare earths, antimony, tungsten, lithium, and other strategic metals. We've seen a lot of volatility in many of the related resource stocks, and so we dive into a nuanced longer-form conversation about the investing angle in these various sectors. We start off discussing the mixed bag coming from US policy around the extraction, processing, and refinement of critical minerals and energy metals from this administration compared to prior administrations. On one hand we've seen positive funding measures and compressed permitting timelines emerge with initiatives like Fast-41, or the strategic position in MP Materials, or the approval of the Ambler Road for Trilogy Metals. On the other hand, Chris argues that this is far too little, too late, and that it will take a much larger concerted effort and far more funds to really move the needle on domestic supplies of critical minerals and strategic metals. We get into the challenges around processing and refinement, being much larger problems that most policy makers realize, and without a quick fix. The question arises of how much can get realistically get done to help the extractive industries over the next 3 years, or potentially only 1 more year, depending on how mid-term elections turn out. Chris also points out that many of these initial support bills and executive orders are encouraging, but most will need follow up support and follow through policies to assist, and it remains unclear if we'll see that pan out in the medium to longer-term. Chris highlights discrepancies in policy and reality, like Rio Tinto's Resolution Mine in Arizona is on the Fast-41 list, but still has huge hurtles to overcome on a state and local stakeholder level to be able to move forward. He also highlights that the Teck-Glencore JV at NorthMet in Minnesota, which is a world-class critical minerals project that has been stalled by multiple operators and government bodies and lobbyist groups for all of this century. He also highlights the government investment into Lithium Americas Thacker Pass Project as potentially misguided use of funds that will be far more capital intensive than other options would have been. Chris reminds listeners that with all those projects, if they do ever get fully approved, they would still be many years from producing more of these critical minerals. Chris reiterates that his top commodity sector for investing is still uranium due to all the tailwinds for nuclear energy. He is also far more comfortable investing in traditional energy with oil and nat gas companies, than even some of the critical minerals for the longer-term, as we are far further from phasing out fossil fuels that people were led to believe in years past, and there are still opportunities in the energy stocks.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 11-06-2025:>/p> Dr. Dawn interviews Cindy Jackonette and Dr. Michael Alexander about a fundraiser for pancreatic cancer awareness on November 15th at Bargetto Winery from 2-5pm, supporting the Santa Cruz Cancer Benefit Group. Dr. Alexander explains pancreatic cancer has only 10-15% five-year survival rates and is difficult to screen for. Screening involves complex endoscopy procedures examining pancreatic ducts, CT scans and biomarker scans. The disease represents 3% of cancer cases but 8% of deaths. Immune checkpoint inhibitors show limited success except in Lynch syndrome patients with DNA repair defects. The Santa Cruz Cancer Benefit Group donates annually to local cancer organizations and is all volunteer-run with minimal overhead. An emailer asks when her 56-year-old half-African American son should get colon cancer screening given his father and uncle both had the disease. Dr. Dawn explains African Americans have increased risk and recommends immediate colonoscopy despite the ideal screening window being 10 years ago. She emphasizes identifying whether he produces polyps, which would require surveillance every 3-5 years. Unlike pancreatic cancer, colon cancer is highly curable when detected early, with death rates dropping 30-40% since colonoscopies became standard in the mid-1990s. She recommends preventive measures including daily 200mg ibuprofen (if no ulcer history) and a high-fiber diet rich in colorful vegetables containing antioxidants that reduce oxidative stress and DNA damage from free radicals. An emailer from Israel asks about supporting his 38-year-old son's rectal adenocarcinoma treatment. Dr. Dawn recommends nutritional strategies including juicing 10 different fruits and vegetables daily, 20mg melatonin for synergy with chemotherapy, vitamin D supplementation, and L-glutamine as primary food for bowel healing and lymphocyte function. She suggests DHA fish oil to enhance chemotherapy effectiveness, green tea for oncogene inhibition, astragalus herb to increase phagocytic activity and natural killer cells, and rotating water-extracted mushroom formulas with beta-glucans, particularly maitake and shitake. Glutamine also protects mucous membranes from radiation burns. Dr. Dawn discusses alarming cancer rate increases among young adults in Corn Belt states including Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois, Minnesota, Indiana, and Kansas. Since 2015, these states show 5% higher cancer rates for ages 15-49 compared to national averages, with particularly elevated kidney and skin cancer rates. Young women face 66% higher skin cancer risk than peers in other states. . Governor Kim Reynolds invested $1 million for research while Bayer's attempt to shield Roundup from lawsuits failed. Dr. Dawn notes Roundup now contains diquat after removing glyphosate. It has taken decades to accumulate evidence of glyphosates harms, She warns that absence of evidence of Diquats being harmful isn't evidence of safety and that Ames testing suggests high mutation potential. An emailer shares a JAMA article on lithium for Alzheimer's disease. Dr. Dawn explains that calcium dysregulation through NMDA receptors plays an upstream role in Alzheimer's pathology. Lithium, a bipolar disorder treatment, can reset deranged calcium gates, inhibiting mitochondrial damage and tau protein production. She emphasizes tau protein as the true culprit in Alzheimer's while amyloid beta is more symptomatic. Correcting calcium homeostasis allows neuronal autophagy systems to clear waste more efficiently rather than being overwhelmed. She reports dramatic peanut allergy declines following 2017 pediatric recommendations for introducing peanuts at 4-6 months based on the LEAP study showing 81% reduction. Between 2017-2020, peanut allergies dropped from 0.79% to 0.45% of all children under 3, with overall food allergies declining 36%. Studies also show pregnant mothers eating peanuts reduces offspring allergy risk by promoting immune tolerance. We conclude with breakthrough wireless retinal implants for macular degeneration, where cameras on glasses convert images to near-infrared signals to retinal implants which stimulate surviving retinal neurons. The prototype allowed patients to improve by two lines on eye charts and perceive facial expressions and read smaller print.

My guest is Dr. David Fajgenbaum, MD, professor of translational medicine and human genetics at the University of Pennsylvania. He explains how, unbeknownst to most doctors, many approved medications can successfully treat or even cure diseases other than the ones they are typically used to treat. He shares his story of escaping death from Castleman's disease by discovering a life-saving treatment using repurposed drugs that were approved for other purposes. Our conversation explores how researchers, physicians, and you—the general public—can explore novel treatments and cures to conditions the medical profession has deemed untreatable, including cancers. We also discuss the crucial role of mindset in battling diseases and the lesser-known use of compounds to promote health and longevity. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

NWABJ Report for 10.30.25 Steve Brawner on Blue Cross CEO, childcare study and lithium summit
Dr. Aaron Breidenbach recently completed his PhD dissertation in Physics at Stanford. His doctorial studies focused on the growth and magnetic measurement of the crystals Herbertsmithite and Zn-Barlowite. His work went a long way towards proving that these crystals are "quantum spin liquids," a novel state of magnetic matter that has potential applications in quantum computing. These same crystals also grow naturally in the Atacama desert, where the local Atacamenian people hold rich animistic traditions which weave in their mountains and mummified ancestors through spiritual traditions. Sadly, these living mountains are currently being over-mined for Copper and Lithium. This process has led to many ecological issues, including the poisoning of the Atacamenian groundwater with arsenic. The cruelest irony is that Herbertsmithite, a strong candidate to the the silicon of quantum computing, is regularly found in toxic waste tailings from these mines. Aaron now is embarking on a journey to the Atacama to try to help restore these animistic traditions, bring balance to the land, and help advance the future of quantum computing.

Am 1. November jährt sich zum ersten Mal das Unglück von Novi Sad. Zu Mittag war damals das Vordach des Hauptbahnhofes eingestürzt. 14 Menschen kamen vor Ort ums Leben, zwei weitere erlagen später ihren Verletzungen. Das Unglück löste die größte Protestwelle in Serbien aus. Der Vorfall wurde zum Symbol für die korrupte Regierung von Präsident Aleksandar Vučić. Der Politikwissenschaftler Vedran Džihić vom Österreichischen Institut für Internationale Politik (oiip) lässt im Gespräch mit Solmaz Khorsand das vergangene Jahr Revue passieren, analysiert die Protestbewegung, die mit brachialer Gewalt vom Staatsapparat niedergeschlagen wird und die viel zu spät in die Gänge gekommene Solidarität Europas für die Demonstrierenden.

In this podcast, I sit down with Dr. Jon Berner to explore two of the most promising yet misunderstood therapeutic agents: Lithium and Rapamycin.We begin with a groundbreaking discussion on Lithium, moving far beyond its traditional use in psychiatry. We break down the recent landmark study in Nature that positions lithium as a potential powerhouse for combating Alzheimer's disease, delve into the different salts (orotate vs. carbonate), and discuss who might benefit, who should be cautious, and the practical realities of dosing and side effects.In the second half, we shifted to Rapamycin, focusing on an exciting new preprint study on its use for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS). We explore the compelling "hyperinflammatory" hypothesis for ME/CFS and long COVID, question whether current off-label dosing is too low, and debate the classic mTORC1 vs. mTORC2 model. The conversation also covers radical new ideas like high-dose pulse therapy, its potential use in IVF, and the powerful synergy of combining rapamycin with ketamine for treatment-resistant conditions.Throughout, we tackle the larger themes of personalized medicine, the limitations of the FDA, and how new AI-driven tools are beginning to map the complex, N-dimensional biochemical space of human health.

Lithium levels in the brain drop in people with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's, fueling memory loss, brain inflammation, and the buildup of toxic proteins Low-dose lithium has been shown to preserve memory, improve attention, and stabilize mood without the kidney and thyroid risks tied to prescription-strength doses A clinical trial found that lithium slowed progression from early memory problems to Alzheimer's, lowering key disease markers and improving daily functioning Whole foods, mineral-rich water, magnesium, and zinc all support healthy lithium balance and give your brain the nutrients it needs to resist decline Removing vegetable oils, lowering excess iron, and boosting antioxidants like glutathione work alongside lithium to protect brain cells and preserve long-term memory
Indigenous communities in South America say mining threatens their water supply. But the world needs lithium for EVs to fight climate change.In the Salinas Grandes salt flats, which hold significant lithium deposits, some residents are saying no to mining. But towns are divided. Some want the jobs that come with mining while others fear what this lithium extraction will do to the water table.Storylines is part of the CBC Audio Doc Unit

Interview with Blake Hylands, CEO of Lithium Ionic Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/opportunity-in-volatility-lithium-projects-poised-for-rebound-5610Recording date: 15th October 2025Lithium Ionic has significantly strengthened the economics of its Bandeira lithium project in Brazil, delivering a rare improvement in feasibility study updates. The company's latest Definitive Feasibility Study reveals exceptional metrics: a post-tax internal rate of return exceeding 60%, net present value of $1.5 billion, and a two-year payback period over a 19-year mine life. Most notably, capital costs decreased by $70 million to $190 million, positioning Bandeira among the lowest-cost lithium developments globally.The capital reduction resulted from strategic partnerships and engineering optimization rather than project compromise. Lithium Ionic partnered with R-TEK Resources, the engineering team that successfully constructed the adjacent Sigma Lithium operation, bringing proven DMS plant design expertise. This collaboration enabled equipment standardization, simplified mine sequencing, and refined facility design while maintaining project robustness.Located in Minas Gerais' Araçuaí pegmatite belt, the Bandeira project benefits from exceptional geological validation. The deposit sits just 500 meters from the CBL operation, which has produced lithium for 30 years, with near-identical structural and geochemical characteristics. Through targeted drilling completed in late 2024, Lithium Ionic expanded measured and indicated resources from 21 million to 27.5 million tons, converting 21 million tons to proven and probable reserves at a 77% rate.The project's lowest-quartile cost profile provides resilience against lithium's recent price volatility, which has seen spodumene swing from $8,000 to $650 per ton. Management targets early 2026 for permit approval and end-of-2027 production, timing that could coincide with tightening supply-demand dynamics as sustained low prices curtail new supply development.With sub-$200 million capital requirements generating $1.5 billion in value, conservative operating assumptions, and a proven development team, Lithium Ionic presents a compelling proposition for project financing as battery demand continues expanding across electric vehicles, grid storage, and AI infrastructure applications.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/lithium-ionic-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
