Corporate Update
Ricca Resources Pre-IPO Placement
Atlantic Lithium Limited (AIM: ALL, ASX: A11, OTCQX: ALLIF, "Atlantic Lithium" or the "Company"), the funded African-focussed lithium exploration and development company targeting to deliver Ghana's first lithium mine, announces that Ricca Resources Limited ("Ricca") is undertaking a private placement ahead of its intended listing on the Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX").
Ricca was formed as a public unlisted entity to hold and advance the Company's suite of demerged gold projects (refer to the Company's announcement on 24 December 2021 regarding the completion of the demerger). Ricca holds extensive gold portfolios in prospective birimian terrains in Côte d'Ivoire, a potential new gold province discovery in Chad, a drill-ready gold target in Liberia and a strategic partnership to advance a lithium-tantalum project also in Côte d'Ivoire. The company remains on track to list on the ASX in H1 2023.
Due to Ricca's attendance at the 121 Mining Investment conference, the closing date of the Ricca pre-IPO private placement has been extended to Friday, 24 February 2023.
Details of the placement and the intended ASX listing can be found in the latest Ricca Resources presentation at the following link: https://www.riccaresources.com.au/presentations .
