Atlantic Lithium, which is targeting to deliver Ghana's first lithium mine, has been granted an environmental permit by Ghana's Environmental Protection Agency for its flagship Ewoyaa Lithium Project.
It said the granting of the permit serves as the agency's approval for the company's proposed activities at Ewoyaa, which represents an important landmark in the permitting process for the advancement of the project.
"The grant of the EPA permit marks a major step towards the construction of Ghana's first lithium mine and follows a collaborative engagement process with the EPA and the residents of Project's catchment area to ensure their alignment with the company's proposed activities at Ewoyaa,” said Atlantic executive chairperson Neil Herbert.
"This approval is a testament to Atlantic Lithium's commitment to acting as a responsible custodian of the land on which we operate, which we consider to be imperative to the long-term success of the project.”
