The impact of lithium mining on the environment-what's
This method has a shorter process and lower cost, but has stricter requirements on process conditions and mineral types. The common feature of the above methods is that the cost of lithium extraction is very high, generally 50-60k/ton, and lepidolite is more expensive to extract lithium, which is estimated to be above 60,000/ton.
