  • Corporate Update
  • Expanding the Executive Team
  • Further Aligning the Board with Growing Shareholder Value

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA / ACCESSWIRE / April 22, 2022 / Atlantic Lithium Limited (AIM:ALL) (OTCQX:ALLIF), "Atlantic Lithium" or the "Company"), the fully funded, African-focused lithium exploration and development company on track to become West Africa's first lithium mine, is pleased to announce the commitment of its Board of Directors for the next phase of the Company's project and corporate developments.

To strengthen the executive team as the Company prepares for the development of its mine in Ghana, Mr Neil Herbert, formerly Non-Executive Chairman, has been appointed Executive Chairman and Mr Stuart Crow, a Non-Executive Director, has been appointed Senior Non-Executive Director. These appointments are in addition to the recent appointments of an Interim Chief Executive and a Finance Director.

Mr Crow has extensive global experience in the mining sector and is Chairman of ASX listed Argentine lithium company Lake Resources NL.

In order to further align key members of the Board with the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, the Company will issue options to Mr Neil Herbert (Executive Chairman), Ms Amanda Harsas (Finance Director and Company Secretary) and Mr Stuart Crow (Senior Non-Executive Director).

"I am delighted to reiterate the commitment of the Board to Atlantic Lithium's strategic goals at this pivotal moment in the Company's history.
