The nice thing about batteries is that they can be recycled almost entirely in a closed loop cycle, so eventually we’ll reach a place where new batteries aren't mined at all, but recycled from old

Idk how far into that we are currently, however there are recycling facilities kinda all over especially for ev batteries. They can also be reused for a while for other things, like home energy storage (like in place of a whole-house generator for blackouts if you are grid-tied, or solar storage for off-grid)
