                          Most people seem to have accepted that lithium

                          there are disagreements over how to approach

                          should benefit from the wealth generated by
                          the mining of lithium. Still others, such as
                          Angelo and Loreto, believe that Chile’s
                          willingness to export the unprocessed lithium
                          denies the country the possibility of
