I want to begin letting certain users work with elements - but I don't want them to have global access. I'd like to be able to give users with a certain role in a certain group the ability to create, edit & delete elements within a certain element category. Can this be done? Which permissions would I need?
Make a new category, insert your chunks, snippets, TVs, templates and plugins you want them to have access to this new category.
Specify the context, the minimum role they should have to access this category and use the element policy.
You would have to do the same for the remainder elements so you would technically have to make a category for admins and one for the other roles and setup what they can and can't access.

If you want to hide elements in a certain category, see this:

If you want to give users limited access to them without hiding them, see this:
