Aterian said its lithium-focused earn-in investment and
joint-venture agreement in Rwanda with mining giant Rio Tinto is
now effective, after Aterian met the required conditions.
The Africa-focused mineral exploration and development company
said Tuesday that Rio Tinto has since August established its
operational infrastructure and recently began field operations on
the partner's HCK project.
Aterian said it will begin exploring the 2,750-hectare site and
collect valuable data on the lithium, tantalum, tin, and niobium to
generate preliminary resource estimates.
