Atlantic Lithium, a leading Africa-focused lithium exploration company, has secured a crucial permit that brings Ghana closer to establishing its first lithium mine.

The company announced that it has been granted a Mine Operating Permit for its flagship Ewoyaa Lithium Project, marking the final regulatory approval required before construction can commence.

The permit, which covers both the mine and processing plant, represents a significant milestone for Atlantic Lithium as it moves towards a Final Investment Decision.

With the regulatory green light secured, the company now awaits parliamentary ratification of the Ewoyaa Mining Lease, which could potentially pave the way for the project's construction phase to begin.
