On the grade of lithium and by-products in lithium-bearing industrial grounwaters of potentially perspective territories of Russia
In this article are considered main aspects of the lithium-bearing industrial groundwaters. The genetic classification of lithium-bearing groundwaters, grade of lithium, rubidium, and caesium in brines, and localization factors are given. This article shows a brief review of the territories of the Russian Federation that are potentially perspective for this type of hydromineral raw materials. Conclusions on the necessary actions for the industrial development of lithium-bearing industrial groundwaters are made.
