Where is he getting his numbers from! Idiot
A biochemist with an attitude, oozing Islamophobia at every pore, with a belligerent attitude towards history that he has not written during the previous half-hour, and you expect sensible comments on economics from him?

Good luck.

Apparently he has taken the figures from worldpopulation review website..


Which Country Has the Largest Lithium Reserves in the World?​

The country with the largest lithium reserves in the world is actually the South American nation of Chile. Chile has 9.2 million tons of lithium in total. As a result, it is first in the list of lithium reserves by country by some distance. However, there are some other countries that have significant reserves of lithium, as well. Australia has the second-largest lithium reserves in the world with 5.7 million tons. As you can see, there is a significant difference between the size of Chile's lithium reserves and the size of Australia's lithium reserves.

Argentina and China Also Have Significant Lithium Reserves​

Argentina is third in terms of the size of its lithium reserves with a total of 2.2 million tons. After Argentina, China ranks fourth in terms of the size of its lithium reserves with a total of 1.5 million tons. It is interesting to note that two of the top three countries with the largest lithium reserves are located in South America. One other country that has a decent amount of lithium reserves is the European nation of Portugal. In total, Portugal has 60,000 tons of lithium reserves.

How Much Lithium Does The USA Have?​

freestar
The United States of America has plenty of natural resources. However, when it comes to lithium specifically, the US is not one of the top producers of lithium in the world. According to data from the United States Geological Survey, the United States has a total of 750,000 tons of lithium reserves.

freestar
This puts it far behind the top producers of lithium in the world. Despite this fact, the United States still has greater lithium reserves than a number of other countries. This includes the countries of Zimbabwe, Brazil, and Portugal, just to name a few.

Here's another website with similar (not exactly) estimates..


However, fairly recently there has been claims of huge discoveries, specifically by Bolivia (21 Million Tons) followed by India (5.9 + Another one I don't remember) and Iran (8.5 M.T.) has been made. Its another matter, how much feasible, in terms of recoverability, are these discoveries.

According to the US Geological Survey, the top five identified lithium reserves are: Bolivia, 21 million tons; Argentina, 20 million tons; Chile, 11 million tons; Australia, 7.9 million tons, and China, 6.8 million tons.

Interestingly there's another use of Lithium. A naturally occurring isotope of the element – 6Li – is a key ingredient in the fusion fuel of practical thermonuclear weapons.

United States' Castle Bravo thermo-nuke test in the early 1950s that was a much larger bang than expected – a 15MT explosion versus the predicted 6MT – due to the Americans thinking the abundant 7Li isotope in the fuel fusion would be inert. It was not, it had a sufficient effect on the reaction, and fallout from the experiment was widespread and disastrous.
