Anchored by the largest lithium exploration footprint in Brazil, the company sits directly in the path of one of the strongest lithium booms in the world. Its Definitive Feasibility Study shows breakout economics — a 145% IRR and an astonishing 11-month payback — backed by a fully paid-for modular processing plant and major support from Mitsui & Co., the Berkshire Hathaway–linked global giant.
Add in a $19 price target from HC Wainwright, and ATLX is quickly proving itself to be one of the most advanced, capital-efficient operators in the sector.
But the story doesn’t stop at lithium. Through ATLX’s 28% stake in Atlas Critical Minerals (OTCQB: JUPGF), the company also gains exposure to rare earths, titanium, graphite, and uranium — forming a high-leverage platform tied directly to the clean-energy transition.
With permits secured, infrastructure moving into place, and Brazil establishing itself as a premier lithium jurisdiction, Atlas Lithium is poised to shift from explorer to producer just as global demand tightens.
DISCOVER WHY ATLX COULD BE THE NEXT BREAKOUT NAME IN BRAZIL’S LITHIUM VALLEY.
