Atomic Eagle Limited has secured key regulatory approvals for its Muntanga Uranium Project in Zambia, marking a major step forward for the Australian mineral resource company. The approvals cover both the project’s Environmental and Social Impact Assessment and its Resettlement Action Plan.
Zambia’s environmental authority approved the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment, while the Office of the Vice President’s Resettlement Division issued a “No Objection” for the resettlement plan. Together, the permits remove major regulatory barriers that had delayed progress on the project.
The company said the approvals show that regulators have reviewed and accepted its environmental and social impact management measures. They also confirm that a resettlement and livelihood restoration framework has been developed in line with international standards, including the International Finance Corporation’s Performance Standards.
Atomic Eagle can now move into the development phase, subject to standard implementation requirements. The assessment was submitted in September 2025 and went through technical reviews, stakeholder meetings and site inspections before receiving final clearance in June 2026.
The approved development plan covers construction, operations and eventual rehabilitation at the project. Open-pit mining and heap-leach processing are planned for the Muntanga and Dibbwi East deposits, with a central processing plant to be built nearby.
The Muntanga project, near Lake Kariba, holds four mining licenses and two exploration licenses across 1,136 square kilometers, with a strike length of about 146 kilometers. The project remains one of Zambia’s most watched uranium developments as the country looks to expand its mining portfolio.
Atomic Eagle has also been reporting continued mineralisation growth at the project, particularly at the Chisebuka deposit. The company said recent drilling results extended uranium resources there, adding momentum to its Zambian exploration push.
