The hot brine that comes up from the subsurface as part of geothermal power production at the Salton Sea in California is a rich stew of minerals, including iron, magnesium, calcium, sodium, and lithium. Those chemical reaction rates will depend on where in the rock lithium is stored pretty strongly, so it can help create a predictive tool.

Its physical structure allows it to store lithium ions. Some advanced designs use a small amount of silicon, which can store more energy. The anode side of the battery is where electrons or ions are stored during charge and moved to the cathode side during discharge. John DeMaio: Correct. Charged : Do all anodes use graphite?
