RE: FID timing - does ratification delay damage value?12 Dec 2025 14:25
For the FID to be changed to $1,300/MT, ALL would need to change the numbers in their DFS, they've not done that yet, so unless and until they do, the numbers given by ALL still stand as the price in the DFS that FID will be based on. Assuming something will change doesn't mean it will, ALL could stick to their own numbers and say that's what they believe, based on any study that backs those numbers or their own data model.
Commenting, Neil Herbert, Executive Chairman of Atlantic Lithium, said:
"Having been granted the Mine Operating Permit through the period, alongside other critical permits, Atlantic Lithium has now secured all of the approvals required for the construction of the Ewoyaa Lithium Project.
"We await the ratification of the Ewoyaa Mining Lease, which represents the final step in the permitting process and which will enable us to advance towards a Project Final Investment Decision. Following the recent election of the new government in Ghana, we are confident that ratification will be forthcoming in line with due parliamentary process.
"In the meantime, we are busy engaging various funding providers to secure the necessary financing. While the price of spodumene concentrate remains subdued, lithium demand continues to grow significantly and prices are expected to rise over the estimated period of plant construction.
"We look forward to providing further developments in due course."
