  • Open-pit lithium mining currently accounts for more than half the world's production.

    “Open-pit lithium mining currently accounts for more than half the world's production (Tabelin et al., 2021).”

    From Lithium and water: Hydrosocial impacts across the life cycle of energy storage (2024) · cites this paper as Tabelin et al., 2021

  • About 25% of EV production emissions come from mining to cathode production, 40% from cell production, and 35% from pack production.

    “Multiple sources report a range of values for the carbon intensity of EV production [99,105-109]. However, they mostly have the same magnitude and coalesce around 140 kg CO2/kWh, with about 25% of emissions coming from mining to cathode production, 40% from cell production, and the remaining 35% from pack production.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
