"The fact of the matter is, is that to live in a sustainable climate, we need the critical minerals that we're doing the research on here," says Graduate Research Assistant Kris Strickland. "Without those, we can't have the solar energy, we can't have the wind energy, we can't have the electric vehicles that we're all pining for."
