Our Role
ERM is the lead environmental and social consultant on a PFS study (including all EIAs and an international ESIA) for a proposed underground lithium mine in northwestern Serbia. Combining Serbian, EU and IFC criteria is complex and challenging. Key issues include biodiversity (many protected species); cultural heritage (potential for significant archaeological finds) and local resettlement.
