As part of this effort, we commissioned an assessment of the UK’s geological potential for critical mineral extraction. In April this year, the Critical Minerals Intelligence Centre published its report on <em>“Potential for Critical Raw Material Prospectivity in the UK”, </em>which highlighted the UK’s potential to produce a variety of critical minerals, including lithium – a key ingredient of electric vehicles. It is a preliminary assessment, and the Government is working with the British Geological Survey to understand next steps.</p> answering member constituency Wealden answering member printed Ms Nusrat Ghani question first answered 26/06/2023 13:32:09 answering member 4460 label Biography information for Ms Nusrat Ghani
