I know that, you know, traditionally some of these metals are very geographically located and acquiring them is difficult, comes with a lot of struggles as well.

Does that play a role in...

pushing these things forward or the decision to stay with lithium, I should say.

Okay.

That's good.

I was just curious because I know I was thinking of like with cobalt, there were struggles as people were looking in those directions and others.

And I wasn't sure about specifically how the supply of lithium looked.

We have one not far from here.

We had a lithium battery recycling facility that was dealing in like old EV batteries, essentially, and stripping those and preparing the materials to go back.

Is there a limit to how many times that can be reused or does it stay?

Essentially, you're looking at

Yeah, me neither.

That is really impressive.

And I want to call out something that you mentioned.

So you're using

AI at the beginning to do your dry work, but you're also using high powered robots at the tail end of that to handle the wet experiments as well, right?

Do you have a rough idea of how many of those...

You're running in, you know, I don't know, a week, month, year.

I feel like there are so many applications for this, like you mentioned, that it goes so far beyond EVs.

This is important research for a decade.
