This is such a dumb take, all rocks are not the same. They are not equally effective for silicon extraction. The extraction process itself takes a lot of energy and solar panels are absolutely not 99% silicon, I don't know which crack case you got that idea from. Not to mention that there is an environmental cost of strip mining and scraping the earth for rare minerals.
