A system and method for the synthesis of light-nuclei elements (LNEs), including the battery element Lithium, in high-purity form. The method eliminates the need for high-energy proton collision in Cosmic Rays to produce Nitrogen- 15. LNEs are produced by placing a mixture with carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen (CNO) source material in a strong, fixed magnetic field (12), then introducing instability to the CNO's stable isotopes through high-frequency radio waves tuned to the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) frequency of a target material in the mixture to produce a LNE product material, and then separating the LNE product material from other materials within the mixture by enhancing gravity separation based on the opposite signs of respective dipole magnetic moments (DMM) to cause attraction of the product material, such as Lithium, to the South magnetic pole away from another product material, such as Beryllium, that is attracted to the North magnetic pole. |
