as posted by the channel

A suite of new, but largely unproven, technologies known as direct lithium extraction could revolutionize lithium mining from brine, making it more efficient and sustainable and eliminating the need for large evaporation ponds. A number of companies including EnergyX, Lilac Solutions, and Standard Lithium are entering the DLE market and getting ready for commercial implementation across South America and the U.S., while automakers like BMW, GM and Ford are investing.

Chapters:

CORRECTION (June 5, 2023): At 12:16 in the video we state that Bolivia was previously considering using DLE technology from both EnergyX and Lilac Solutions. In fact, the Bolivian government is still considering a future partnership with Lilac Solutions.
