Be careful about announcing the discovery of such a significant lithium deposit, as Trump might get another one of his weird ideas, like making Germany the 52nd state (after Greenland as the 51st, of course).

Might as well skip the T-TIP and just let the 30+ states of Europe join the USW (United States of the World)

Rare earths aren’t that rare, we all just let China take over processing them.

True statement, but this article isn't about rare Earth metals, its about Lithium. Lithium isn't considered a rare Earth commodity.
