There is a growing demand for lithium for use in batteries.  One current method of producing lithium is to extract it from subterranean brines that are pumped to the surface for that purpose.  Further, in some locations, produced water from oil and gas operations may contain recoverable lithium.  This presentation will address such issues as: Is lithium a "mineral" for purposes of a mineral deed or lease that applies to "oil, gas, and other minerals?" Does pooling authority extend to brine production? Are there special statutes that apply to brine production? Who owns produced water?
