Coincidentally, this started right after they found a gigantic source of lithium and said the state would control the mining of it, blocking American companies from exploiting it.

Sounds like a conspiracy theory. Any more info on that ?

As far as I know, lithium is pretty much everywhere in abundance, it's rather its refinement that's the problem.

Sounds like there is some liberating to do.
Nah, Elon Musk was here in Mexico like 2 months ago meeting with the President. I don't think there's any problem exporting lithium.
