Lower price, locally sourced. Sounds too good to be true. Questions are why hasn’t anyone done this before? What hurdles were present then that aren’t present now? What other companies tried this? And why did they fail?

Great question. It hasn’t been done before at scale because prior tech couldn’t extract lithium metal directly from brine efficiently. It was slow, dirty, and unscalable. Most past efforts (like SB LiMotive, Britishvolt, even Northvolt) failed due to high costs, tech bottlenecks, or reliance on unstable foreign supply chains. What’s different now? New electrochemical processes like Pure Lithium’s Brine to Battery cut steps, cut costs, and localize production. It’s like going from whale oil to pipelines. This could be the Standard Oil of battery metals.
