On April 2, Sigma Lithium Corporation (SGML) signed a $100 million collateralized bank guarantee with a Brazilian bank. This financing aims to support the construction of the Greentech Industrial Plant 2, which is expected to double the company's annual production capacity from 270,000 tonnes to 520,000 tonnes of high-grade lithium oxide concentrate. The expansion is also projected to provide socio-economic benefits by supporting approximately 13,000 jobs and impacting 21,000 people in Brazil's Jequitinhonha Valley. This strategic move reinforces SGML's position as a leading lithium producer in the Americas.
