Sigma Lithium Selected by Nasdaq to Ring Closing Bell During United Nations NY Climate Week in Recognition of Sustainability Pioneerism in Critical Minerals

$SGMLPress releaseSep 16, 2026, 6:47 PM ETRead the release

Sigma Lithium disclosed it is strongly contesting a preliminary judicial ruling concerning its environmental licenses in Brazil, while confirming that mining and industrial operations at Grota do Cirilo continue normally and that its mining rights and concessions are unaffected. The ruling stems from a Quilombola territorial claim that expanded from roughly 500 hectares to 15,000 hectares in 2025; the company says its operations sit farther than the referenced 8-kilometre threshold, calls the ruling a due-process violation, and notes a R$100,000 penalty provision for non-compliance.
