Lithium-inferred resources discovered in Jammu and Kashmir

India has discovered lithium-inferred resources to the tune of 5.9 million tonnes in the Salal-Haimana area of Reasi district of Jammu and Kashmir.

Mines are at the preliminary exploration stage (also called G3). Lithium is one of the key elements used for making EV batteries and other energy storage products.

According to a statement, the Geological Survey of India (GSI) report on lithium resources, along with 15 other resource-bearing geological reports (that are in general exploration and preliminary exploration stages) and 35 geological memoranda, were handed over to respective State governments during the 62nd Central Geological Programming Board (CGPB) meeting.
