Importantly, the share sale does not impact Piedmont\u2019s existing joint venture, earn-in agreements, or offtake\u00a0positions\u00a0with Atlantic or the Ewoyaa project.<\/p>\n<p>Keith Phillips reiterated Piedmont\u2019s confidence in the Ewoyaa project as a logistically advantageous, low-cost spodumene concentrate producer.<\/p>\n<p>However, the company is adopting a prudent approach to capital deployment in the current lithium price environment, aiming to position itself for the anticipated recovery in the lithium market.<\/p>\n<p>Piedmont Lithium\u2019s overarching objective is to emerge as one of the leading lithium hydroxide producers in North America, leveraging assets with economic interest, including the Carolina Lithium and Tennessee Lithium projects in the US, as well as collaborations in Quebec with Sayona Mining and in Ghana with Atlantic Lithium.<\/p>\n<p>source:tigpost.co<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A US-based company, Piedmont Lithium, has revealed plans to sell a portion of its shares in Atlantic Lithium, a company listed on the Aim and ASX exchanges, to Assore International, the largest shareholder in Atlantic.
