Q. Atacama Salt Flat, recently seen in the news, is the largest salt deposit in which country?
Answer:
Chile
Notes: Researchers from the University of Chile found that Chile's Atacama Salt Flat is sinking due to lithium brine extraction. The Atacama Salt Flat, or Salar de Atacama, is the largest salt deposit in Chile. It features a white surface with a large salt lake beneath it. The lake under the salt flat holds one of the world's largest lithium reserves. Located in the Atacama Desert, one of the driest places on Earth, the northern part of the basin includes the San Pedro River delta.
