Just recently, Magnolia Mayor Parnell Vann inspected three of these wells. He noted the squat blue spire of valves, bolts and pressure gauges attached to one of the wells – a telltale sign that someone is trying to revive it.

The standoff was inevitable, with the Biden administration’s open borders policies flooding neighborhoods throughout the state with unscreened illegal immigrants, some of whom are potential terrorists, drug traffickers and human traffickers. Even those who don’t fall into one of those categories and are simply looking for a better life are a significant burden on the state.

Copper crisis threatens future of “clean” energy – there’s not nearly enough of this metal available for the world to go “green”

May 08, 2023 -

So-called "renewable" energy relies heavily on earth-based metals like copper that have to be found, mined, and converted into usable material in things like solar panels and batteries. The problem, besides the fact that all this mining is highly destructive to the planet, is that there simply is not enough copper to facilitate the "green" transition.

"There's a huge crisis," says Doug Kirwin, a geologist who was among the first to work at a copper deposit now known as Oyu ...

Experts warn that a worldwide lithium shortage could come as early as 2025

September 05, 2023 -

In a report recently published by BMI, a research unit of Fitch Solutions, the insatiable demand of China for lithium primarily driven by the EV market is expected to grow by an average of 20.4 percent per annum between 2023 and 2032. However, the lithium supply is projected to increase by only six percent over the same period.

Meaning to say, the large gap cannot even meet a third of the anticipated demand despite China being the third largest producer of lithium ...

America IGNORING human rights, child labor abuses in the DRC to secure supplies of METALS for EV batteries

September 15, 2023 -

Known as the world's "king of cobalt," the DRC has long been regarded as the world's largest producer of the metal, accounting for nearly three-quarters of global output in 2022. A third of that output comes from the country's informal mining sector, made up of artisanal miners and children who often work with no safety equipment in dangerous, hand-dug mines.
