In Zahlen
Savannah Resources, a company planning to extract lithium in the municipality of Boticas in Portugal's Trás-os-Montes region, has intensified clearing and maintenance work to reduce the risk of fire in the forest lands it owns. The company emphasized that the safety of the local population and the teams working in the field is an absolute priority.
John Pereira, who is responsible for the field, stated that some of these lands have been unused and uncleared for years, creating an additional risk for local communities in the region. With the cleaning activities carried out within this scope, it is aimed to prevent possible forest fires.
Furthermore, the company acts in compliance with legal regulations on days when the Portuguese Institute of the Sea and Atmosphere (IPMA) designates the rural fire danger as "very high" or "maximum" and outside of warning periods. Accordingly, all operations involving the use of machinery during these risky hours are completed before 11:00 AM.
