In Ukraine's Kirovohrad region lies a promising lithium deposit, crucial for battery production. Mykola Hrechukha noted its vast extraction potential, capable of 4,300 tonnes per day. However, activity is stagnant despite the 2017 government license, amidst geopolitical tensions. Recently, US treasury secretary Scott Bessent claimed partial rights to Ukraine's mineral resources, which Ukraine’s president, Zelenskyy, rejected, insisting on security guarantees first. The mine's future remains uncertain as both environmental lines and international relations play a role in its development.
Mykola Hrechukha sketched out how Ukraine's new lithium mine might look, highlighting the potential to extract 4,300 tonnes a day due to a significant deposit.
