if you have deserts maybe, but here in France it causes too much damage on properties by inducing earthquakes that they had one project stopped (Vendenheim, France).

There's already one European founded research project near this one, in Soultz-sous-Forêts (Alsace, France) which is active, but missing new founding I think.

And now they will have a permit to collect lithium which makes you think that a new project could be a way to have a permit to dig and then make it easier to have a licence to collect lithium, which is more profitable.
