… Fortunately, our challenge is one of policy, not geology. We have the resources to supply significant domestic production for many of the metals most essential to advanced energy technologies. From nickel and cobalt to graphite, copper, lithium and rare earths, we have them, and with further exploration and mapping, likely even more than we realize. Promising lithium reserves and projects in Nevada, California, Arkansas, North Carolina and even Maine speak to the variety and breadth of the resources within reach. But producing these resources remains an enormous challenge made only more difficult by self-imposed barriers.
The future does not happen without nuclear.
