A Brazilian judge ordered the suspension of environmental permits and mining activities at the Grota do Cirilo mine after Quilombola communities filed a lawsuit and a prior free and informed consultation was deemed necessary. The order triggered a decline of about 12.6% in Sigma Lithium's share price. Sigma Lithium said it had not yet received official notice, plans to take legal action and reiterated its expansion plans with target volumes of 240,000 t and 330,000 t of lithium oxide concentrate for a 12‑month period and for the 2027 fiscal year, respectively. » More on de.investing.com
