announcement from the U.S. Geological Survey. They identified a major lithium deposit in the Appalachian region.

They're estimating about 2.3 million metric tons of recoverable lithium could exist

underground. And that's a large enough supply for roughly 328 years of current lithium imports.

This might be the biggest story we talk about today, Casey.

And nobody's talking about it.

No, no, you're talking about it.

We're talking about it.

But yeah, a deposit of this size, I mean, one of the big barriers to electric cars and battery technology is just the amount of lithium it takes to build the batteries.

And we have to import it all from China, right?

But now this announcement coming that it's right here in the United States.

If this pans out, this might be bigger than finding a huge oil deposit, probably is bigger

than finding a huge oil deposit.

And yes, the amount of wealth that we can extract from that, as well as the ability to

make those batteries cheaper so that, you know, if you truly want electric, if that is going to be our future eventually,

this is going to suddenly make it economically viable where you don't need to subsidize it.

Yeah, so lithium, essential for EV batteries, phones, laptops, grid storage.

Ooh.

Yeah.
