Lithium and graphite. Cheese and bikkies?, page-2

In the Lithium world fish,I favour extracting it from seawater,using of course ours/ Mainak's Technology.

Several methods for recovery of lithium from seawater have been investigated, such as ion exchange resins, solvent extraction, co-precipitation, membrane processes and adsorption. Among the various methods for element separation, the adsorption method is the most promising for the lithium/ seawater system from economic and environmental viewpoints.

A number of different adsorbents has been investigated for the selective lithium recovery from the fundamental standpoint, and also for recovery from seawater. However, the adsorbent based on manganese dioxides and its composites seems to be the most proper one, because of its high adsorption capacity in alkaline medium (pH of seawater is around 8.1). It shows also specific selectivity for Li+ among alkali and alkali earth ions.

Fish, straight out production from the getgo, no drilling,no assay results.

Maybe an old floating drill rig,or jack up rig,as a platform to work from and away ya go.
