TSX-V-listed Lithium Ionic has issued requests for quotation (RFQ) for the construction of two underground mine portals at the Bandeira lithium project, in Brazil.

The RFQs were issued to seven contractors participating in the tender process.

The portals will provide surface access to Bandeira’s underground mine for personnel, equipment and development activities.

Advancing the portal construction tender represents an important step in the company’s broader engineering, procurement and construction-readiness programme as Bandeira progresses toward a construction decision.

Lithium Ionic CEO Blake Hylands says the issuance of the portal RFQ is another practical step in advancing Bandeira from engineering toward execution planning.

"The underground portals represent an important early works component of the project, and this tender process supports our continued focus on construction readiness, disciplined procurement and maintaining momentum across key development workstreams," he concludes.
