Bolivia, among the poorest countries in South America, sits on one of the world’s largest lithium reserves, beneath the vast Salar de Uyuni salt flat.
About:
Beneath Salar de Uyuni, the world’s largest salt flat, lies one of the world’s greatest lithium deposits – around 17 percent of the global total.
Bolivia, one of South America’s poorest countries, envisions a road to prosperity by harvesting this resource on an industrial scale from underground salt water brines.
Enticed by lithium prices more than doubling in recent years, as demand for electric vehicles and smart devices (powered by lithium-ion batteries) escalates, Bolivia sees an opportunity.
