The Geography of War and the Price of Oil
No one is defending the Iran Regime when they ask the question, "How does this end?" Clearly thought should have been given to the geography of the area through which 20% of the world's oil transits.The attached article is from the New York Times - "Why it's so hard to reopen the Straight of Hormuz"See More
"For decades, the USA has had restraint regarding Iran. A key reason, the strait of Hormuz. To lose 20% of all oil shipments is huge. Not good. And I don't think it will go back to 'normal' anytime soon even if the war ends quickly.…"

SMACKOVER LITHIUM GROUP – TEXAS
Lithium from brine is an evolving energy play based on Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE). The DLE process for extracting lithium and other elements with value from Smackover (SMK) formation water is becoming the most economic and environmentally friendly means of sourcing domestic lithium for use in modern battery technologies. Leasing is ongoing and extraction plants are in the design/development stage. Different states will have somewhat different regulatory and legal frameworks.Note that…See More

Oil & Gas ProSkip Peel - Mineral Consultant said… Rock Man and I have been discussing this lithium play off the website for some time and sharing data. He sent me this zoom meeting. He and I will both watch it in full over the weekend. It's over an hour. To streamline communication, I suggest that you start contacting me on one of my email addresses. Please use skippeel@gmail.com. For future considerations, my phone is 318-218-8323. I'm interested in finding out if the Journal Sun is prioritizing this and potentially how many Cass residents it may reach.

Oil & Gas ProSkip Peel - Mineral Consultant said… Do you subscribe to the Cass County Citizens Journal Sun? I can see that the paper has published at least one article but can't read it in full as I am not a subscriber.

Oil & Gas ProSkip Peel - Mineral Consultant said… Joe, I'm concerned that the land rush is on in Cass County but other than GHS and your posts, there is little public information. I've been through this with the Haynesville Shale but in that case the media got wind of the activity and publicized it. It made a substantial difference for many people. The competition for leases benefited all mineral owners, large and small. What would you think about you and I coordinating with a Shreveport television station on a report?
