Rare earths remain in many sought after and controversial

Date:

There is a golden digging mood in the race for raw material for high performance batteries. Controversial lithium extraction also on the Koralpe in Carinthia. US President Trump “blackmail” rare earth from Ukraine.

It was a shock wave for conservationists when the Carinthian state authority now announced that no environmental impact assessment was needed for the planned lithium mine on the Koralpe. The decision was a blow to the stomach pit for the residents involved. Global-20000 activist Anna Leitner increases the alarm: “The rapid expansion of global mining through greed according to raw materials for energy transition and digitization completely ignores nature conservation”.
