AfriTin Mining Begins Trading as Andrada Mining
AfriTin Mining has announced, further to its announcement of 5 January 2023, the Registrar of Companies in Guernsey has confirmed the name change from Afritin Mining to Andrada Mining.
Accordingly, the change of name will take effect, and dealings under the new company name of Andrada Mining began at 08h 00 11.01.2023
As previously announced, the name Andrada reflects the company’s expanding lithium and tantalum resources alongside its existing tin production.
The new name originates from José Bonifácio de Andrada e Silva, the Brazilian mineralogist and professor who first discovered petalite and spodumene, which are major lithium bearing minerals and a precursor to the identification of lithium.
Management believes that the Uis licence could host a globally significant lithium resource.
The company’s ISIN will remain GG00BD95V148 and its trading mnemonic will remain ATM. The information required to be disclosed pursuant to AIM Rule 26 of the AIM Rules for Companies can still be accessed on https://afritinmining.com/investor-centre/aim-rule-26/. A new website address will be provided in due course.
Anthony Viljoen, CEO of the company said, “I am pleased to confirm the company’s name change to Andrada Mining. We are excited about the potential size of our lithium resources in Namibia and the name change reflects its significance within our expanding production profile beyond our current tin operation. We are looking forward to the future with great enthusiasm as Andrada Mining makes a contribution to the energy transition.”
