About Andrada Mining Limited
Andrada Mining Limited, formerly Afritin Mining Limited, is a London-listed
technology metals mining company with a vision to create a portfolio of
globally significant, conflict-free, production and exploration assets. The
Company's flagship asset is the Uis Mine in Namibia, formerly the world's
largest hard-rock open cast tin mine and currently being re-developed as a
major tin-tantalum-lithium producer.
An exploration drilling programme is currently underway with the aim of
expanding the tin resource over the fourteen additional, historically mined
pegmatites that occur within a 5km radius of the current processing plant. The
Company has set a mineral resource target of 200 Mt to be delineated within
the next 5 years. The existing mine, together with its substantial mineral
resource potential, allows the Company to consider economies of scale.
Andrada is managed by a board of directors with broad industry knowledge and a
management team with extensive commercial and technical skills. Furthermore,
the Company is committed to the sustainable development of its operations and
the growth of its business. This is demonstrated by the way the leadership
team places significant emphasis on creating value for the wider community,
investors, and other key stakeholders. Andrada has established an
environmental, social and governance system that has been implemented at all
levels of the Company and aligns with international standards.
