Residents of Serbia's lithium-rich region vow to block EU-backed mining

Published on: Thursday 08 August 2024

Residents of Serbia's lithium-rich region vow to block EU-backed mining Zlatko Kokanović does not want a lithium mine in his backyard and he will do anything he can to stop it from opening. At stake is a lush farming valley in western Serbia that holds one of Europe's richest deposits of lithium, a precious metal that is used to make batteries for electric cars and is crucial for the global transition to green energy. While the government insists the mine is an opportunity for economic development, critics say it would inflict irreparable pollution on the Jadar valley, along with underground water reserves, farm land and two small rivers that run through the valley.
