Workshop “The paths of energy transition: The circulation of lithium, copper and other strategic metals in the southern Andes”

Marina Weinberg

Worlds of Lithium's team member Marina Weinberg began the dissemination of the project's findings while speaking at the "The paths of energy transition: The circulation of lithium, copper and other strategic metals in the southern Andes" workshop in Tocopilla, Chile.

The workshop brought together scholars to study, not the localized modes of mining extraction, but how these minerals circulate and are transported through the Andean space and towards global points of consumption. The seminar, of an exploratory nature, took as a privileged observation point different ports on the desert coast of the South Pacific: Iquique, Patillos, Patache, Tocopilla, Michilla, Mejillones. These ports organize a varied and consistent typology, from which to observe the ongoing reconfiguration of the region as a whole.
