....you are hound-dog after my heart.

Bolivia has yet to participate in the global lithium economy. Today most of the world’s lithium carbonate (the main component used in batteries) comes from smaller reserves in Chile and Argentina, where a few giant firms dominate the market.

Why would the Bush family always act like twins of different mothers? Look to Paraguay.

3. Sgtbenobo, I don't know too much, but what I have read previously

discussed the idea that Bolivia wants to make certain when it starts selling litium, it will be done correctly, so the country will retain control of the business. It appeared that they are being very careful in looking long and hard at any and all companies which have shown interest in becoming partners with them.

Evo is completely committed to making sure Bolivia will be getting a safe, decent agreement first, and not allow foreign interests to get the advantage, which has happened in so many countries with corrupt politicians making the deals for them.

Great seeing your comments in the Latin America forum! Welcome.
