Is Lithium a rare earth mineral?
Minerals are the natural substance that is found in the earth's crust. Minerals are a combination of more than one substance, so they are not pure substances. Lithium (Li) is an alkali metal placed in the first group of the periodic table. Lithium is a pure substance. It is not a rare earth mineral but it is a rare metal.

Rare earths and EVs — it's not about batteries
Rare earths play an important part in the sustainability of electric vehicles (EVs). While there are sustainability challenges related to EV batteries, rare earths are not used in lithium-ion batteries. They are necessary for the magnets that form the main propulsion motors. The batteries mostly rely on lithium and cobalt (not rare earths).
