Atlantic Lithium Limited has confirmed that Ghana’s Parliament has begun considering the ratification of the Mining Lease for its flagship Ewoyaa Lithium Project.

In a corporate update issued on 23 February 2026, the AIM, ASX and GSE-listed company said it understands that the Parliamentary Select Committee on Lands and Natural Resources met on 12 February 2026 to consider the Mining Lease.

The company, however, stated that it is not aware of the outcome of the meeting and has not received formal confirmation regarding the timing of the ratification.

Atlantic Lithium noted that Parliament reconvened on 3 February 2026 after adjourning before Christmas and the New Year. A revised version of the Mining Lease had earlier been submitted to Parliament in December 2025.

The Board described ratification of the Mining Lease as a major de-risking milestone for the Ewoyaa Project, which is being positioned as Ghana’s first lithium-producing mine.

The company said it continues to support due parliamentary processes and remains confident that ratification will be forthcoming.

Atlantic Lithium published a Definitive Feasibility Study for Ewoyaa in July 2023. The project was awarded a Mining Lease in October 2023, received an Environmental Protection Authority permit in September 2024, and a Mine Operating Permit in October 2024.
