Lithium Mine-Rare Snail

FILE - An "Access Restricted" sign is displayed at the Lithium Nevada Corp. mine site at Thacker Pass on April 24, 2023, near Orovada, Nev. Federal wildlife officials have agreed to conduct a full, year-long review to determine whether a tiny snail found only in high-desert springs near a huge lithium mine being built along the Nevada-Oregon line should be listed as a threatened or endangered species. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said in a finding published in the Federal Register on Thursday, Feb. 8, 2024 enough scientific exits to warrant the review sought by environmentalists who say that groundwater pumping required for the operation of the Thacker Pass mine could push the Kings River pyrg to the brink of extinction.
