Maybe in the Subnautica world, the most common naturally occurring lithium mineral is an inert compound like lepidolite. Of the metals in Subnautica, only lithium is common to both the formula of lepidolite and the available metals. It's also purple, and looks vaguely like the purple crystals in-game: http://www.mineralogy4kids.org/mineral/lepiodolite

I'm probably completely overthinking this...
