The world’s lithium is either mined in Australia or from salt flats in the Andean regions of Argentina, Bolivia and Chile, operations that use large amounts of groundwater to pump out the brines, drawing down the water available to Indigenous farmers and herders.

Deposits of rare earths, concentrated in China, often contain radioactive substances that can emit radioactive water and dust.
