However, the potential for Uyuni has been greatly overstated given the state of knowledge we have of the resource. Lithium mining is difficult and the processing in the case of Uyuni will be tricky. Further deep drilling exploration is required before we actually can determine its true potential to actually produce lithium carbonate for batteries. At this time our estimate of the lithium resource has a very wide range – true it could be large (it even may be the world’s largest resource) but it also could turn out to be only a minor source of lithium!

Let's see if he lets Bolivia use this income from Lithium productoin to rebuild that country just like Chavez has helped rebuild Venezuela through oil revenues to provide education and healthcare to the masses.
