https://www.wfae.org/energy-environment/2023-05-22/gaston-county-lithium-mine-may-not-start-production-until-2027 The company that wants to build a lithium mine in northern Gaston County says the mine won't open until 2027 at the earliest because of permitting and other delays.
Piedmont Lithium has proposed the mine and processing operation to meet the growing demand for lithium by electric vehicle and battery makers. To get at the lithium-bearing ore, Piedmont would dig multiple open pits more than 500 feet deep on about 1,500 acres of residential and agricultural land east of Cherryville.
The company had hoped to be in production by now, despite significant opposition from residents who worry about environmental damage and a change in their quality of life. But plans have been slipping back. Last fall, CEO Keith Phillips told WFAE he hoped to open the mine in 2026. Now executives now say production won't start until at least 2027, for a variety of reasons:
Lowers private property selling prices over 75%, as electricity cut ON PURPOSE to over 200,000 for 7 full months.
MOST (over 70%) of minerals in NC ( AI Chip Quartz, Lithium ) are known to be UNDER PRIVATE PROPERTY
No connection at all .
It's a head scratcher for sure ..
