petroleum companies don't want lithium to be successful but it's the way of the future, what are all the Arabic countries going to make money from if all these companies take off faster then expected and we cease to need petroleum in such high demand ?? IMO it's the big corporations and the super rich Arabs pushing down the price so they can keep pumping there toxic oil throughout the world and bathe in the riches while they still can, it's in there interest to slow this right down and possibly move in and kee prices as low as possible.
