How continents, lithium and gold were formed
About 300-200 million years ago the continent we now know as North America was contiguous with Africa, South America, and Europe. They all existed as a single continent called Pangaea. Magma from the interior of the Earth carrying precious and base metals protruded into the Earth's crust forming pegmatites. Since lithium is chemically very active, it rarely occur as pure metal like gold, it formed various lithium compounds such as spodumene in pegmatites. As the Pangaea splitted into continents, those metals were distributed all around the world, but the characteristics and signatures of their existence remain the same anywhere they are found. Canada's James Bay, Greenland and Great Britain were once joined in the Pangaea (3 minutes into the video), so what is found in James Bay may as well found in Great Britain / Ireland.
Orogenic Gold and orogenic lithium
Heated seawater deep in the Earth's crust circulated in the crust and dissolved gold and other minerals to form hydrothermal fluid with super-saturated gold and super saturated lithium chloride. The Rocky Mountains were formed 80 million to 55 million years ago during the Laramide orogeny. As the Pacific tectonic plates submerged beneath the North American tectonic plate (a phenomenon called Subduction), tremendous heat and pressure caused the mineral-rich hydrothermal fluid to surge upward into the Earth's crust, when gold precipitated on rocks, they formed hydrothermal gold deposits, gold formed this way is called orogenic gold, 75% of the world's gold deposits are orogenic gold. The word orogeny is derived from Greek meaning mountain creation. The action of Subduction caused the west coast of North America to buckle and forced it to rise skyward, along with the ancient sea, forming the Rocky Mountains. That is why brine lithium is found in Nevada and Utah.
