Aim-listed exploration and development company Atlantic Lithium Limited has received an environmental permit from Ghana’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for its Ewoyaa Lithium Project.
The permit confirms the EPA’s approval of the project’s environmental impact assessment, which addressed feedback from both the EPA and local communities.
Neil Herbert, Atlantic Lithium’s Executive Chairman commented, “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,”
The final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) submission, which incorporated feedback from the EPA on the draft EIS submitted in May 2024, also addressed queries raised during public hearings held in Ewoyaa and Krofu in February and June 2024.
