To be honest one thing Cornwall needs is some decent paying jobs so this isn't a bad idea at all. There are also freight railheads available at Parkandillack, Trevisco and Goonbarrow - not to mention Carne Point/Fowey Docks & Par Habour all rail connected. Just hope it's not a "friends of friends only" type deal like the clay operations seem to be!
Natural resources like this in Cornwall should not be used to make profits for companies, like what Norway did with it's oil profits it must go into a fund to invest in the future of that area...I doubt that will happen though it's the UK after all
@@williamcarter3933 This isn't in any way the same. Oil is immediately profitable, this is an incredibly capital intensive, early stage project. If you don't want businesses to make profits then guess what, they won't invest and it'll never happen.
@Pixiesforever7 I missed the part where they offer something that couldn't come from say a sovereign wealth fund with long term goals and access to lower borrowing costs than private sector.
@@leonblittle226 and the cost of electricity for a highly mechanized refining process goes a long way to determining profitability. If you can bring that down you can compete with manufacturers and miners who rely on more rudimentary and labour intensive processes in other parts of the world because they can afford to with the lower wages.
Go and read. They tell you one thing and do another. It’s all a big scam all this man made global warming and Co2 emissions costing the planet. We are between ice ages. That is all it is. But they want to use their scaremongering tactics to put you in a digital prison and tie your biology together with your finances and your medical records etc. with cbdc and digital ids and under the skin surveillance when Yuval gets his way, they will control you and everything you spend, and all your bodily autonomy under this concept of saving the planet while they continue on with this bullshit. They’re scamming us all
Lithium is critical for expensive high end electric cars, however the cheap bottom of the range electric cars can use Sodium-ion batteries, which obviously doesn't need any lithium at all. And the raw materials for Sodium-ion batteries are plentiful and cheap. The only problem with Sodium-ion batteries is you don't have the same performance as Lithium-ion batteries, which is a massive problem if you use your car on a motor racing circuit, but most people don't use their car on a motor racing circuit, most people drive to the supermarket and drive to work which is fine with Sodium-ion batteries. We need more investment in Sodium-ion batteries.
Investment must be made for sodium ion batteries. Where lithium needs to be mined, sodium is extracted from seawater, ya know!? And where lithium hydroxide needs to be specially made, sodium hydroxide is so cheap that you use every day. It's called caustic lime, ya know!?
until battery chemistry changes due to costs running too high on any part of the recipe of a 18650 cell and the scientists remove the highest cost item and add a low cost item instead...
#FactCheck electric vehicle take up is not faltering. *New ev sales have "slowed", but offset by the rapid increase in second hand ev's and we see that ev take up is in no way slowing down.
From $37K to $65K that's the minimum range of profit return every month I think it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.

Venturing into crypto as a newbie was very difficult due to lack of experience which resulted in loosing funds......... But Lucille Friedman, restored hope shes a good woman
It's not whether you have it, it's whether it can be mined and processed at a competitive price. If it can be shipped in from China at a fraction of the cost it won't be viable. Unless you can persuade Cornish miners to work for Chinese wages.
Go for it Cornish Lithium, I wish you great success. Another British mining company, Savannah resources, if I'm not mistaken , has purchased the concession to mine for lithium in my home country at a mine not more than 2 kilometers from my village house. As a strip mine it will flatten and destroy the landscape, kill the wildlife, pollute the air and water, and ruin the lives of the remaining community involved in agriculture. From my house veranda, in fact, the scars on the land from the last British mining company that operated here, dating back to the 1940's, extracting wolfram for the war effort, are still quite visible.
The kaolin (China clay) industry in Cornwall, didn't do that at all! I live down the road from St Austell and St Dennis. All that has "left behind" are big quarries and "spoil heaps" which are being reclaimed by nature, reclaimed for building land, and known as the Cornish Alps. There's hiking videos on TH-cam all round there. And if they go for the lithium, it's there they'll start - so it's mining a brownfield, not a greenfield site!
I hope the Cornish people get to benefit from this, and it's not like the gas fields all over again? I'm not from Cornwall, but I want Cornwall to become wealthy from it's resources like Qatar did
The up take of EVs in Europe is not faltering, it continues to increase, last month Norway new EV sales reached 95% of total new car sales. Even in the UK EV sales as a percentage continue to grow. China is the biggest producer of processed Lithium, but it is not the biggest producer of Lithium ore. There are vast reserves of Lithium throughout the world, including the States and Australia, Australia being one of the biggest producers. Get your facts right and stop the click bait!!!
I wouldn’t be surprised if this was just a threat to China or a way to try renegotiate lithium prices. The cost of UK produced lithium will likely be tenfold what Chinas.
This isn't about expense, its about national security. The less we rely on an authoritarian government with a mindset focused on global domination (they're already attacking small businesses in the UK with Temu and Shein) the better.
The landscape they are working in is literally a wasteland from Cornish clay mining. The other place Lithium extraction is happening in Cornwall (from pumping lithium rich water up) is in an old tin and copper mining wasteland.

Norway was able to do that because it had godly amounts of oil. You can't do that with a low margin regional product.

@Pixiesforever7 your tripping oil does definitely not pay immediately, that's why they wait for ages to start exploration projects
Even if its more expensive
Independence is invaluable
It's only more expensive because they actually have to pay wages in this country

lithium supply is national energy security
Lithium is everywhere it’s the processing that is dominated by China.
Great, as long as the environment isn't sacrificed.

We need more investment in Sodium-ion batteries.
No.
We need.to stop stealing minerals from our planet. And giving profit to billionairs
Having lithium doesn't mean having battery technology...
Don't they do that stuff in Sheffield?
I like how you quickly skipped over the chemical process - is it bad ?? I bet its disastrous.

If you know what you’re talking about, lithium can be extracted from seawater too.
This is BIG!! Jobs!!

What do they do with the chemicals when they can’t use them anymore? Hope they don’t dump it in rivers or the sea
Yeah, but how much is there? I can't imagine its a massive amount
Rain. Rain rain rain. No wind though, which is nice.

Well this is a good thing as now other countries might want to have our lithium then.
Net zero will end up closing this mine.
Devon (next door to cornwall) might have cobalt as well, Another key metal for batteries, and cobalt currently is only found in the congo
extraction costs will be far to high, we will always just get the cheapest, no matter what happens.
Higher extraction cost could be countered by lower shipping costs, especially when you got a lithium battery factory just down the road from you.
@@DavidKnowles0💯👍
Get the clay going again at the same time.
I thought it was only young kids in Congo that did the mining for EV batteries……….
Yes, yes, yes! More!!

Technology n raw material is totally different
Work from home and stop depending on vehicles 😂

Hopefully the profits will stay in the UK instead of abroad but I doubt it.
I love how we all pretend we are saving the environment whilst using diesel powered JCBs and tipper trucks to do the work 😂😂
They probably put it in the water
nice news to wake up to :)
Better Import Lithium!
Platinum.

Another good reason not to buy an electric car. Now there digging up beautiful Cornwall. Please don't buy these electric cars people........😊
“beautiful Cornwall” was already quite significantly dug up for tin, silver, feldspar, granite and clay wasn’t it?
And copper. @@alexwilsonpottery3733
Cornwall is a honeycomb of mine shafts and tunnels already. Mining is part of Cornwall's national identity.
watch and weep you emmet
They aren't digging up St Ives, they are rummaging around in and under old slag heaps. And I don't mean under a Camborne girl's bed.
Extracting lithium in the UK is far too costly to the environment and Labour needs to stop it.
The landscape they are working in is literally a wasteland from Cornish clay mining. The other place Lithium extraction is happening in Cornwall (from pumping lithium rich water up) is in an old tin and copper mining wasteland.
How much will it cost? If you don't know what you're talking about, why are you chiming in?
No.
