The project
Imerys, the leader in specialty minerals for industry, has launched a lithium mining project on its Beauvoir site in Echassières (Allier). The EMILI (Exploitation de Mica Lithinifère par Imerys) project meets the dual challenge of energy transition and economic sovereignty.
Locations
The EMILI project is an integrated project that includes all the stages in the production of the lithium hydroxide required for electric vehicle batteries. There are specific sites for each of these stages, from extraction to shipment, all grouped together in the Allier region.
Commitments
Imerys has made a number of strategic choices to make EMILI a responsible project with controlled environmental and social impacts: an underground mine, location of the sites, transport, environmental and water resource conservation, tailings management and discharge control, employment and dialogue.
Lithium
Lithium, widely used in the manufacture of batteries for the automotive industry, has in just a few years become an essential and strategic raw material for meeting the challenge of the energy transition and European sovereignty.

Pour mieux accompagner le territoire dans ses évolutions, une série d’études est menée autour de grands enjeux : environnement, qualité de vie, risques, ressources naturelles ou encore paysages. Ces travaux permettent de mieux connaître le territoire, d’évaluer les impacts possibles des projets, et de nourrir les échanges avec les acteurs locaux.
