Solution

The correct option is B lithium
Spodumene is a pyroxene mineral that is typically found in lithium-rich pegmatites. It is usually associated with other lithium minerals such as lepidolite, eucryptite, and petalite.

Spodumene has a chemical composition of LiAlSi $_{2}$ O $_{6}$ but small amounts of sodium sometimes substitute for lithium.

Hence, the correct option is $B$
