Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A.

("Atalaya" or "the Company")

Environmental Authorisation Granted to San Dionisio

Expected to contribute higher-grade material for processing at Riotinto

 

Atalaya Mining (LSE: ATYM) is pleased to announce that the Junta de Andalucía
("JdA") has granted the Unified Environmental Authorisation (or in Spanish,
Autorización Ambiental Unificada ("AAU")) to the San Dionisio deposit at
Proyecto Riotinto.

The AAU allows for the expansion of mining activities at San Dionisio, which
represents a key component of Atalaya's strategy to increase copper production
by sourcing higher-grade material from deposits throughout the Riotinto
District.

Alberto Lavandeira, CEO, commented:

"We are delighted to have received the AAU and look forward to fully
integrating the San Dionisio deposit into our operations. This is a key
milestone for the development of Proyecto Riotinto, and it once again
demonstrates the Junta de Andalucia's support of the mining industry in the
region."
