It should be noted, though, that some of the imports are then exported in the form of other compounds. Russia’s internal demand for lithium is 400 to 700 metric tons. Lithium is used in the nuclear power industry, in energy storage systems, and in the production of slag-forming mixtures for ladles and lubricants for mining operations.
Russian state-owned Rosatom State Nuclear Energy (Rosatom) has announced it will build its 3 GWh lithium-ion battery manufacturing facility in Kaliningrad, in Russia's province of the same name, sandwiched between Poland and Lithuania along the Baltic coast.
“Accelerated development of lithium ore mining projects at the Zavitinskoye, Polmostundrovskoye, Kovyktinskoye, Yaraktinskoye and Kolmozerskoye deposits in 2023–2030 will help meet most of domestic demand for lithium,” says the Russian Metals Industry Development Strategy 2030 adopted last December. All of the mentioned sites are not easy to mine.
The Russian Government estimates the country’s needs at about 3,000 tons — this is how much of various metal compounds was imported in 2021. It should be noted, though, that some of the imports are then exported in the form of other compounds. Russia’s internal demand for lithium is 400 to 700 metric tons.
Their key component is a battery made from nickel, cobalt, manganese, copper, aluminum, and, of course, lithium — metals that are now called ‘battery metals.’ Russia is fully self-sufficient in nickel, cobalt, copper, and aluminum; manganese is imported from several sources, and only lithium is yet a major concern.
Mineral lithium provinces are found on the Kola Peninsula, in the Southern Urals, in the Altai Territory, in the Kemerovo Region, in the Republic of Tyva, in the Eastern Sayan mountains region, the Trans-Baikal Territory and Yakutia, as well as on the border with China in the Jewish Autonomous Region, Khabarovsk and Primorsky Territories.
