Portugal is the largest producer of lithium in Europe, but its miners sell almost exclusively to the ceramic industry.<\/p>\n\n

Mining company Savannah Resources<\/a> said Portuguese authorities had approved its environmental impact assessment for what could become the largest lithium mine in Western Europe, calling the move an “important milestone” for the project.<\/p>\n\n
