Hello Everyone,
Hello Everyone,
We have another past winner back in the cross hairs for tomorrow's session.
The last time we looked at it this one was sitting around 5.30 and ran to 6.50 over the next 2 weeks.
Since then it has pulled back a bit with the market but it is still seeing strong interest every day in anticipation of production on the horizon.
Focused on moving from exploration to profitability; Atlas Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLX) is a U.S.-based mineral exploration company with the largest size and breadth of exploration projects for strategic minerals in Brazil, a premier mineral jurisdiction.
ATLX intends to be a leader in the provisioning of minerals essential to the transformation of the global economy from fossil fuels to electrification, a process which is expected to take decades.
The company’s properties encompass approximately 539 km2 for lithium, as well as mineral rights for nickel, rare earths, titanium and graphite. Atlas Lithium also owns 32% of Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation.
Company Highlights
Over the last several years, Atlas Lithium has assembled Brazil's largest portfolio of lithium mineral rights among publicly listed companies.
ATLX holds three key projects that span the major lithium-mineralized zones in LV:
- The Neves Project in southern LV, Atlas Lithium's flagship development, which has recently been permitted and is advancing towards production;
- The Salinas Project in northern LV, spanning 2,070 acres with natural spodumene outcrops, and is located 4.7 miles from Latin Resources Ltd., and with potential for spodumene deposits;
- The Clear Project in central LV, which encompasses 470 acres, is situated 3.8 miles from Sigma Lithium's (NASDAQ: SGML) Grota do Cirilo mine. There is also potential for spodumene deposits. Sigma Lithium has a market cap of roughly $1.2B! (Note: ATLX’s lithium processing manager James Schloffer had a key role at Sigma!)
Atlas Lithium's Modular Processing Plant Arrives in Brazil, Achieving Critical Milestone Toward Production
Boca Raton, Florida--(Newsfile Corp. - March 10, 2025) - Atlas Lithium Corporation(NASDAQ: ATLX), a leading lithium development company, announces the successful arrival of its modular Dense Media Separation (DMS) lithium processing plant at the Port of Santos, Brazil. This pivotal achievement underscores the Company's progress toward becoming a key lithium producer in Brazil's emerging Lithium Valley.
The components of Atlas Lithium's lithium processing plant were carried by the cargo vessel Irene's Wisdom (IMO: 9953391) which arrived at the Port of Santos on March 7, 2025, delivering 141 containers and 10 bulk components. Fully owned and paid for by Atlas Lithium, this newly manufactured facility departed from the Port of Durban, South Africa, on February 2, 2025, following months of careful planning and preparation. Two additional containers, containing spare parts, are scheduled to arrive in the near future.
"This marks a transformative milestone for Atlas Lithium as we advance toward becoming a global supplier in the lithium market," said Marc Fogassa, Chairman and CEO of Atlas Lithium. "With operational permits secured and our modern lithium processing facility now in Brazil, we have overcome two of the most significant hurdles on our journey to production."
Cutting-Edge Modular Plant Design
Atlas Lithium's lithium processing plant incorporates advanced design elements and sustainable technology that set a new benchmark for lithium processing:
- Compact, Modular Design: Allows streamlined transportation, installation, and commissioning, reducing time to production.
- Reduced Environmental Footprint: Optimized physical layout minimizes environmental impact while maintaining high operational efficiency.
- Advanced Water Conservation: Internal recycling systems with lower water consumption compared to traditional plants.
- Sustainable Tailings Management: Dry-stacking technology eliminates the need for tailings dams, promoting greater environmental sustainability.
Strategic Progress Toward Production
The Neves Project, Atlas Lithium's flagship operation, received its operational permit from the state of Minas Gerais in October 2024. The project is positioned to initially produce up to 150,000 tonnes per year of battery-grade spodumene concentrate, a critical raw material for lithium-ion batteries.
Atlas Lithium's operations will benefit from Brazil's Lithium Valley's strategic advantages, including expected lower production costs as compared to suppliers from Australia and other regions.
Atlas Lithium Strengthens Position in Critical Minerals with Rare Earths, Titanium, Graphite, and Uranium Exposure
Boca Raton, Florida--(Newsfile Corp. - March 5, 2025) - Atlas Lithium Corporation(NASDAQ: ATLX), a leading lithium exploration and development company, is pleased to highlight its current 32.2% stake in Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation. This ownership positions Atlas Lithium at the forefront of Brazil's critical minerals sector, providing exposure to rare earth elements, titanium, graphite, uranium, and other sought-after minerals.
"Global demand for critical minerals has never been more urgent," said Marc Fogassa, CEO and Chairman of Atlas Lithium. "Recent geopolitical developments have underscored the vital importance of critical minerals for economic and national security. Atlas Lithium is strategically positioned to play a key role in this increasingly important sector."
Rare Earths: Essential for Defense, Energy, and High-Tech Applications
Rare earth elements are indispensable components in manufacturing permanent magnets used in electric vehicle (EV) motors, wind turbines, and defense systems. With Chinacurrently controlling over 60% of global rare earth mining and 85% of refining capacity, recent export restrictions have underscored the need for alternative supply sources.
Atlas Critical Minerals' extensive rare earth portfolio spans approximately 54,000 hectares (~133,000 acres) across 33 mineral rights in the states of Goiás and Minas Gerais in Brazil. These areas have demonstrated promising mineralization, with soil samples revealing rare earth oxide (TREO) concentrations as high as 15,000 ppm and titanium dioxide concentrations up to 20%.
Graphite: A Cornerstone of Battery Technology
Graphite is a critical component for lithium-ion batteries, which power electric vehicles and renewable energy storage systems. As global EV adoption accelerates, demand for natural graphite has surged, making the development of new sources outside of traditional suppliers like China a strategic imperative. Atlas Critical Minerals is actively evaluating areas in Brazil with known graphite formations, with the goal of contributing to the global supply of this essential material.
Uranium: Fueling the Energy Transition
Uranium is experiencing renewed global demand as nations prioritize energy security, geopolitical stability, and decarbonization. With nuclear power offering a reliable, low-carbon energy source, uranium has become integral to the energy transition. Atlas Critical Minerals is focused in certain areas in Brazil with promising geological characteristics for uranium. In Brazil, uranium is strictly regulated and exploration requires special permitting, which is not guaranteed. Nevertheless, this sector is expected to continue to grow substantially as Brazil activates its third nuclear reactor for electricity generation and as global demand continues to rise.
A Diversified Strategy for a Changing World
Atlas Lithium's ownership stake in Atlas Critical Minerals strategically complements its flagship Neves Project in Brazil's Lithium Valley. This diversified approach provides shareholders with exposure to multiple critical minerals essential for the global energy transition and advanced manufacturing sectors.
"In today's environment of persistent geopolitical tensions, the need for reliable, diversified critical mineral supply chains has never been clearer," added Fogassa. "While our immediate focus is to bring our lithium production online and generate profits, Atlas Lithium's long-term strategy is to establish itself as a leader in the global critical minerals space."
