From Investing.com:

Protesters in Chile have agreed to end demonstrations blocking access to the Atacama salt flat, the world’s largest lithium deposit, after a promise of a visit by President Gabriel Boric. Indigenous groups had been blocking public roads leading to mining operations, citing an agreement that sidelined local communities. The protest highlights the challenge Chile faces in imposing more state control over lithium production. The president must visit the area before finalizing policy, according to the Atacama Indigenous Council. Albemarle said its operations continued as normal during the protest, while SQM did not respond to comments.
