津巴布韦禁止原锂出口,以增加当地利益,限制外国管制。 Zimbabwe bans raw lithium exports to boost local benefits, curb foreign control.

津巴布韦拥有对电池生产至关重要的丰富的锂,面临着挑战,因为大部分利润流向中国公司。 Zimbabwe, rich in lithium crucial for battery production, faces challenges as most profits flow to Chinese companies. 为此,政府于2022年禁止原锂矿石出口,并计划于2027年禁止锂精油出口,目的是建设当地的炼油厂和生产厂。 To address this, the government banned raw lithium ore exports in 2022 and plans to ban lithium concentrate exports from 2027, aiming to build local refineries and production plants. 尽管该行业是顶级锂出口国之一,但它导致了就业短缺和侵犯人权行为。 Despite being one of the top lithium exporters, the industry has led to job shortages and human rights abuses. 专家建议政府采取措施,例如垄断锂储备,让地方社区参与进来,以及尽早执行禁令,以确保当地人受益。 Experts recommend the government take steps like establishing a monopoly on lithium reserves, engaging local communities, and implementing the ban sooner to ensure benefits reach locals.
