About Savannah
Savannah Resources is a mineral
resource development company and the sole owner of the Barroso
Lithium Project (the 'Project') in northern Portugal, the largest
battery grade spodumene lithium resource outlined to date in
Europe.
Through the Project, Savannah will
help Portugal to play an important role in providing a long-term,
locally sourced, lithium raw material supply for Europe's lithium
battery value chain. Once in operation the Project will produce
enough lithium (contained in c.190,000tpa of spodumene concentrate)
for approximately half a million vehicle battery packs per year,
and hence make a significant contribution towards the European
Commission's Critical Raw Material Act goal of a minimum 10% of
European endogenous lithium production from 2030. Savannah is being
supported in its development goals by its strategic partner and
largest shareholder AMG Critical Materials N.V., the global
critical materials business.
Savannah is focused on the
responsible development and operation of the Barroso Lithium
Project so that its impact on the environment is minimised and the
socio-economic benefits that it can bring to all its stakeholders
are maximised.
The Company is listed and regulated
on the London Stock Exchange's Alternative Investment Market (AIM)
and trades under the ticker "SAV".
