Corporate Restructure with New United Kingdom ("UK")-Based Subsidiaries Established
Marula Mining PLC ( AQSE: MARU A2X: MAR ) an African focused mining and development company, announces the incorporation of two new and wholly-owned UK-based subsidiaries. The subsidiaries have been established as part of its broader strategic growth plans and continued commitment to value creation across its African battery metals and critical mineral projects.
The Company has incorporated Marula Africa Mining Holdings Limited ("Marula Africa"), a new UK-registered entity that will act as the holding company for all of the Company's direct and indirect and commercial interests that the Company holds in its East African and Southern African mines as well as its development and exploration projects. This new structure is designed to streamline the management of Marula's operational activities across Africa and enhance strategic alignment as the Company continues to expand its project portfolio and advance other corporate actions.
Marula Metals Processing Limited ("Marula Metals") has also been incorporated in the UK and will be the entity through which all value-addition and high-value processing and refining of its battery metals and critical mineral projects in East Africa and Southern Africa will be structured through. Marula Metals will also serve as the special purpose vehicle through which the Company will advance a number of joint ventures and partnerships targeting battery metals processing, recycling of critical metals and the recovery and processing of e-waste and related materials.
The formation of Marula Africa and Marula Metals are considered by the Board to be key elements of the Company's corporate growth strategy and focus to produce high-value materials of critical global importance as part of its commitment to sustainable and responsible resource development in Africa.
The Directors of Marula are responsible for the contents of this announcement. This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of UK Market Abuse Regulation.
