IberAmerican Lithium Corp. (CBOE CA: IBER) (OTCQB: IBRLF) has announced the termination of its previously planned business combination with Strategic Minerals Europe Corp.

Factors contributing to this outcome include prolonged obstacles, unfavorable capital market conditions, and uncertainties surrounding the future legal status of Strategic's mining licenses.

The amended and restated business combination agreement (BCA) dated June 15, 2024, has been allowed to lapse. Despite this setback, IberAmerican affirms its commitment to its strategic objectives and continues to explore opportunities aligned with its long-term growth plans.
