Calcium batteries are one of many candidates to replace lithium-ion battery technology. It is a multivalent battery.Key advantages are lower cost, earth abundance (41,500 ppm), higher energy density, high capacity and high cell voltage, [12] and potentially higher power density.
Sodium-ion batteries are a possible alternative to lithium-ion batteries, as they are less flammable, [28] and use cheaper and less critical materials. They have a lower energy density, and possibly a shorter lifespan. If produced at the same scale as lithium-ion batteries, they may become 20% to 30% cheaper. [26]

In-situ leach for uranium has expanded rapidly since the 1990s, and is now the predominant method for mining uranium, accounting for 45 percent of the uranium mined worldwide in 2012. [2] Unlike open-pit and underground mining, in-situ leaching does not rely on burial depth as a criterion but is based on the properties of the uranium deposit.
Australia accounted for 52% of global lithium production in 2021 and was the #1 lithium mining country in the world. Chile ranked #2 with its 24.5% share followed by China's 13.2% share.
Zinc production and proven reserves exist at a higher scale than lithium metal due to zinc’s use in galvanization and its broad geographic availability. [12] Other benefits of zinc metal as an anode material include its compatibility with both aqueous and non-aqueous electrolytes and its higher safety and lower environmental toxicity compared ...

Lithium mining from geothermal boreholes is a groving project in Europe. Potential sites are Cornwall (UK), [16] Rhine Graben (France, Germany) [24] and Cesano (Italy). [25] All these sites have a lithium concentration of 200 mg/L or higher. Origin is due to interaction with mica minerals in the granite and/or in the rocks of the local basement.
