Alfredo Zaconeta is an expert in the field of geology and natural resources, who has voiced concerns regarding the lithium content in Bolivia's Coipasa salt flat compared to the renowned Salar de Uyuni. In a recent discussion, he highlighted that studies indicate Coipasa contains higher levels of magnesium and potassium, which could hinder its viability for lithium extraction, a critical factor in the ongoing debate about Bolivia's lithium mining plans.
