Lithium is a reactive metal that we sometimes use in our lives. Besides a science classroom, the most common place we use lithium would be in lithium batteries. This can be advantageous because lithium is extremely light, and in some circumstances, light batteries are preferable over heavier batteries. So it is just as lawful to have lithium metal as it is to have a battery.

Note, It may be illegal for a normal person to have lithium metal, I don't actually know, but based on this, I wouldn't think that it is illegal.
