Battery metals can be mined and used for decades before being recycled and used again as efficiently as if the recycled materials were newly mined. https://climate.mit.edu/ask-mit/how-does-environmental-impact-mining-clean-energy-metals-compare-mining-coal-oil-and-gas https://www.wired.com/story/recycled-battery-materials-can-work-as-well-as-new-ones/ https://spectrum.ieee.org/recycled-batteries-good-as-newly-mined
