Currently, deposits are being particularly exploited in the
so-called "lithium triangle", which includes part of Bolivia,
Chile and Argentina and where it is estimated that 55% of the
world's reserves of this metal are located. Lithium is found
there in salt lakes at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, in
unique ecosystems. The three countries hope to overcome the
economic crisis aggravated by the coronavirus pandemic with
increased income from the extraction of this mineral. However,
Extraction in the lithium triangle means, according to
studiescurrent, very negative environmental impacts.
In addition to the decrease in groundwater Phone Number List

due to high water demand, a particular
problem is the swirling of wind over dried residues of used
chemicals. Both phenomena endanger both the environment and the
livelihood of the often indigenous populations that inhabit the
triangle and live mainly from agriculture. Although there is
environmental legislation in all countries, its enforcement
often fails due to the weakness of state institutions and the
great interest of governments in the exploitation of raw
materials. They make large concessions to mining companies,
mostly foreign.

Furthermore, participation mechanisms for consultations with
indigenous groups are often poorly implemented, although most
countries have ratified relevant international agreements such
as Convention 169 of the International Labor Organization. In
many Latin American countries, the lack of participation of
affected local residents is the starting point of energetic
protests and even violent riots. In general, the local
population does not benefit from the material gains generated by
the exploitation of raw materials and is largely unprotected
from its negative social, economic and ecological consequences.
