„Experts partly sceptical - Toolittle research on lithium extraction?“

„But whilethere is already experience in building and operating geothermalplants, extracting lithium from geothermal energy is something new.Michael Schmidt of the German Raw Materials Agency, part of theFederal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources, clarifies:"There is no company doing this on an industrial scaleyet."“

„According to raw materials expertSchmidt, there are still fundamental questions that need to beclarified around potential lithium extraction: "Where exactlydoes the lithium in the Upper Rhine Graben come from? How is itdistributed and what are the recovery rates?" Inaddition, he said, it is still unclear what extraction and pumpingrates are realistic. In the meantime, there are collaborativeresearch projects on some questions.“

„Ulrich Blum of theGerman Lithium Institute, which has close ties to the economy, alsosees "many unanswered questions about lithium extraction in ageothermal power plant. I think there is still a lack of researchin this area.“

...extraction rate? ... pumping rate? ... does anyone remember Jcapitalresearch? ... the video "The green energy god of empty promises" ... isn't that exactly what Tim Murray said too?
