Sigma Lithium Corporation has announced the signing of a US$100 million collateralized bank guarantee with a major Brazilian bank. This guarantee, fully collateralized by clients through corporate guarantees, letters of credit, and export receivables, is a key milestone for the company's 2026 growth plans. It will support the construction and installation of Sigma Lithium's Greentech Industrial Plant 2, aiming to double its annual production capacity from 270,000 to 520,000 tonnes.

The bank guarantee is subject to the finalization of definitive agreements.
