Abstract
Europska unija značajno je ovisna je o uvozu brojnih mineralnih sirovina koji su od presudne važnosti za industriju, a time i ekonomiju Europske unije. Iz tog razloga, Europsko inovacijsko partnerstvo o mineralnim sirovinama sukladno Strategiji Europa 2020 ima za cilj do 2020. povećati udio industrije mineralnih sirovina na 20% BDP-a. To će se, prije svega, postići smanjivanjem ovisnosti o uvozu mineralnih sirovina. Shodno tome, Europska komisija financira brojne projekte u području mineralnih sirovina unutar programa Horizon 2020 i 7th Framework programa. Ključni cilj projekata je ostvarivanje pretpostavki za pokretanje rudarskih aktivnosti na području Europske unije. Rad donosi pregled završenih i aktualnih projekata unutar navedenih programa.The European Union is dependent on the import of numerous metals and ores, which are of crucial importance to the industry, and thus to the European Union's economy. For this reason, the European Innovation Partnership on Raw Materials aims to increase the share of raw materials to 20% of GDP by 2020. This will, above all, be achieved by reducing dependence on imports of raw materials from sources outside the European Union. Consequently, numerous projects under the Horizon 2020 and the 7th Framework Programs are being funded with the aim of advancing mining activities in the European Union. This paper presents an overview of the completed and current projects within the mentioned programs
