Suppose by some miracle a large molecular cloud of pure lithium assembled itself in space, then gravitationally collapsed.
What would the result look like? Would it be a star of some sort (fusing the lithium into carbon perhaps)? Or would the result just collapse directly into either a neutron star or planet depending on the mass?
Note I am assuming the gas cloud is literally pure lithium, thus there will be no protons available for lithium burning (unless some process produces them from this pure lithium).
I understand that the scenario here would never occur in reality; I'm just curious about what our current laws of physics would predict about this scenario. (Specifically, I have read about the almost pure hydrogen stars from the early universe, extreme helium stars, and was then naturally wondering about whether lithium stars are possible.)
