Highlights

Project Development:

-       Critical approvals granted in respect of the permitting requirements for the Company's flagship Ewoyaa Lithium Project ("Ewoyaa" or the "Project") in Ghana:

o  The Mine Operating Permit, representing the final regulatory approval required prior to construction of the Project;

o  The environmental permit by Ghana's Environmental Protection Authority ("EPA"), marking the EPA's formal endorsement for the proposed activities at the Project, as detailed in the Company's Mine and Process Environment Impact Statement;

o  The Land Use Certificate, which authorises the rezoning of the land within the Project's Mining Area for mining purposes; and

o  The Water Use Permit, enabling the use of water from the Ochi-Amissah River at the Project for the purposes detailed in the Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") for the Project.¹

-       Notification received that the Company's application in respect of the Mining Lease for the Project had been submitted to the Parliament of Ghana for ratification.

o  The Company has subsequently engaged relevant stakeholders in Ghana to seek revised fiscal terms for the Mining Lease that reflect prevailing lithium market conditions and that ensure the Project delivers value to shareholders and to stakeholders.

o  The Company welcomed comments made by the Minister of Lands and Natural Resources in parliament post-period end, in which it was confirmed that Cabinet had authorised that revised terms of the Mining Lease be negotiated and presented for review, per the necessary process for parliamentary ratification.

-       With all of the necessary regulatory approvals secured, the Company awaits the ratification of the Mining Lease for the Project by Ghana's parliament, which serves as the final step in the Project's permitting process to enable the advancement of the Project.

Exploration:

-       Increased JORC (2012) compliant Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") of 36.8Mt at 1.24% Li₂O¹ ("Lithium MRE") reported for the Project.

-       Based on the same geological model that resulted in the Lithium MRE¹, the Company delivered an updated MRE of 36.8Mt at 41.9% feldspar¹ ("Feldspar MRE") for the Project.

-       Discovery of spodumene pegmatite in outcrop and float at both of the Company's 100%-owned Agboville and Rubino exploration licences in Côte d'Ivoire, undertaken concurrently with the advancement of Ewoyaa.¹

-       Impressive results returned from Phase 2 soil sampling completed at the Rubino licence, which have identified pronounced lithium anomalies over a 2.5km by 2.0km area.¹

Corporate:

-       Post-period end, the Company announced the signing of binding financing agreements with global investment company Long State Investments Ltd ("Long State") to secure funding up to £28m over a period of 24 months.

o  Under the Share Placement Agreement, the Company undertook an Initial Placement, raising £2m (AUD 4.1m) through the issue of 24,786,526 shares at a price of £0.081 (AUD 0.17) per share.

-       Successful completion of an institutional placement ("Equity Placing"), led by the Company's largest shareholder, Assore International Holdings Limited ("Assore"), raising A$10m. 

-       Implementation of cost-saving measures to reduce the Company's cash outflows, intended to enable the Company to focus its resources on advancing Ewoyaa towards Project FID.

o  Measures included Neil Herbert transitioning to a Non-Executive Chairman role, salary reductions for key leadership personnel, a rationalisation of the Company's workforce and a reduction of expenditure for non-Project-critical activities.

-       Cash on hand at end of the year was A$5.4m.

Commenting, Keith Muller, Chief Executive Officer of Atlantic Lithium, said:

"The Company has continued to make meaningful progress in the advancement of the Project, despite the challenges presented by the delays to the ratification of the Mining Lease and the backdrop of a significantly weakened lithium market.

"Through the period, Ewoyaa was granted several critical approvals, each marking significant milestones on the path to completing the permitting process for the Project. I would like to thank our staff and partners in-country, who have enabled the timely delivery of these achievements, as well as the residents of the Project's catchment area in the Central Region for their unwavering support.

"We currently await the ratification of the Mining Lease by Ghana's Parliament, which will unlock the financing and development of the Project. We remain confident that ratification will be forthcoming and continue to support the process where possible.

"Post-period, we are delighted to have secured binding agreements with Long State, providing the Company with access to up to £28m of funding over a two-year period. Long State's investment serves as both its firm belief in the Company as an investment opportunity and its recognition of Ewoyaa's potential to generate value for stakeholders and shareholders. We warmly welcome Long State as a strategic investor at such a critical moment in the Project's progression.

"With this funding solution in place, and with the ratification of the Mining Lease pending, the outlook for the year ahead for Atlantic Lithium is very positive. Ewoyaa remains one of the most advanced, pre-construction hard rock lithium assets globally and, underpinned by strong demand, we believe that the Project's timeline to production aligns well with an anticipated recovery in the market.

"We look forward to providing further updates in due course."
