- Elevra completed the sale of its Ewoyaa project interest to Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt for cash.
- North American Lithium increased sales volumes and reduced unit operating costs in the September quarter.
- The company is advancing a fully funded expansion while concentrating its portfolio on North American assets.
Elevra Lithium completed the sale of its interest in Ghana's Ewoyaa Lithium Project on October 26, 2026, transferring the asset and related spodumene offtake rights to Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt. The company received cash consideration of US$71 million before fees and taxes, according to the company filing published by StockTitan.
Portfolio shifts toward North America
The transaction removes Elevra's remaining funding commitment for Ewoyaa and simplifies its project portfolio. Management said the proceeds would improve financial flexibility as the company advances the North American Lithium brownfield expansion and development work at Moblan and Carolina Lithium.
The sale followed Ghanaian government approvals and was separate from Huayou's proposed acquisition of Atlantic Lithium, which holds the remaining private-sector interest in Ewoyaa.
Quarterly operations improve
Elevra's September 2026 quarterly report, released on October 27, showed record ore mined at North American Lithium and the second-highest quarterly concentrate production. Spodumene concentrate sales reached 58,134 dry metric tonnes, while quarterly revenue rose to US$74 million from US$31 million in the preceding quarter. Unit operating costs fell to US$780 per tonne from US$907 per tonne, according to the quarterly report carried by News Hub.
The NAL expansion has moved into execution, with engineering, procurement and installation work under way. The project remains scheduled, funded and on budget, while the company expects annual spodumene concentrate production to rise from about 199,000 tonnes to 373,000 tonnes after completion.
