Summary

Milena Kataranovski, Tamara Rakić, Elizabet Paunović, Predrag SimonovićJadar Project: Possible Harmful Impacts on Wildlife and Human Health

The Jadar region in Serbia is known for its traditional economic activities, especially agriculture. It is also recognized for its ecological and biological diversity, with 101 habitat types, of which 31 are classified as priority habitats. The Government of Serbia has approved the development of a jadarite mine (which contains lithium and boron) in the populated, agriculturally productive area of ​​Lower Jadar. In addition to standard mining operations, the extraction of lithium from jadeite requires new and emerging technologies due to its unique chemical composition. Potential consequences of lithium and boron extraction include extensive ecological degradation of the Jadar region. Initial impacts would likely occur through soil, water and air pollution, threatening existing economic and agricultural activities as well as biodiversity. Mining operations will pose a significant threat to the region's substantial groundwater reserves, with far-reaching consequences beyond the immediate area. The potential impacts discussed in this book are intended to highlight the possible adverse effects of jadeite mining on natural habitats; plant species, domestic animal species and wild animals as essential components of the environment; and ultimately, on human health in the Jadar region.
