HIGHLIGHTS

• Atlas Lithium's team visited South Africa last week to supervise the preparation of the components of the Company's modular lithium DMS plant for shipment to Brazil.

• 48 containers have been prepared to date, with a final total of over 100 containers expected before a charter vessel departs from Durban, South Africa to Santos, Brazil.

Boca Raton, Florida--(Newsfile Corp. - August 22, 2024) - Atlas Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLX) ("Atlas Lithium" or the "Company"), a leading lithium exploration and development company, is pleased to provide an update on the progress of preparation of its modular dense media separation (DMS) lithium processing plant for shipment to Brazil.

DMS is a processing technique that employs heavy liquid medium, several times denser than water, to efficiently separate materials based on their density. This method effectively isolates spodumene (the primary lithium-bearing mineral in Atlas Lithium's deposits) in the heavier fraction, while waste materials are separated into the lighter fraction. While DMS technology has been employed in the hard-rock lithium industry for considerable time, the Company's approach involves a modularized and optimized version of this proven technology, which will enable Atlas Lithium to achieve production at reduced costs and with lower water consumption.

Brian Talbot, an RTEK principal and member of the Operations Committee of Atlas Lithium, commented during last week's inspection visit to South Africa: "Atlas Lithium's modular plant represents a significant step for Brazil's lithium industry, and our direct involvement ensures that every detail is accounted for as we ship it to Brazil."

For the past two weeks, technical personnel from RTEK have been on-site in South Africa, coordinating the weighing and packaging efforts for the plant's numerous components, and ensuring that each piece is properly prepared for the transcontinental shipment. A facility specializing in freight forwarding and project logistics has packaged 48 containers, with the total container count expected to reach over 100 before a chartered vessel departs from the port of Durban, South Africa, for the port of Santos in Brazil.

The DMS modules of the plant have successfully undergone trial assembly in South Africa, as previously announced. Some of the remaining parts in near-final stages of fabrication are effluent components, recently modified to improve water efficiency, as well as conveyors. Facilities where some of these final outstanding pieces are being completed were also visited in South Africa.

The modular design of the plant, a first for Brazil's lithium industry, is expected to streamline transportation, installation, and commissioning processes. Its significantly reduced height, weight, and overall physical footprint make it a premier environmentally friendly design. Moreover, the plant will feature the lowest processing circuit water usage in the industry, setting a new standard for water preservation in lithium production. This combination of modular efficiency and water conservation further solidifies Atlas Lithium's commitment to sustainable practices in the lithium industry.
