Top Metals FUELING Our Electronic Future

The growing adoption of electric vehicles is driving the increasing demand for lithium, nickel and cobalt — critical metals used for lithium-ion batteries in the automotive, energy and electronics industries. We’ve talked about Lithium, now I will talk about Cobalt and Nickel – the other battery metals. Cobalt is a transition metal that is hard, brittle, lustrous and silver-gray. Cobalt is primarily used in lithium-ion batteries. Nickel is used in steel alloys and other applications, including the fast-growing rechargeable battery sector. Both are important metals for which we produce only a tiny fraction of what we use in the US, and much of what we import is obtained from countries who would be considered as enemies. We need to find more.
If you'd like to learn more about Lithium, take a look at my video on that metal:
