The Jadar river is a tributary of the Drina river.
The mineral jadarite was discovered in samples recovered from a borehole. The deposit was formed in an intramontane lacustrine sedimentary basin.
A lithium deposit, one of the largest in the world, was discovered in 2004 and in 2017 the Rio Tinto Group planned to start mining operations in 2023 ("Jadar mining project"; Wikipedia).
The Serbian government cancelled all decisions and licences in January 2022, following months of protests by civilians.
