History

The company was founded by Aristidis (Harry) Anagnostaras-Adams and Ron Cunneen in Cyprus in September 2004.[2] It was listed on the Alternative Investment Market as Eastern Mediterranean Resources in May 2005,[3] and then changed its name to EMED Mining in September 2006.[4]

In July 2010, the company applied for a mining permit to develop the Cerro Colorado mining deposit, also known as Minas del Rey Salomón (Mines of King Solmon), in the Riotinto-Nerva mining basin in the province of Huelva, Andalusia.[2] The permit was granted in January 2015.[5][6] The company started commercial production of copper at the mine in Andalusia in February 2016 and then changed its name from EMED Mining to Atalaya Mining in October 2016.[7][8]

The company expanded its interests in Andalusia, when it purchased the Masa Valverde polymetallic project in October 2020,[9] and went on to acquire three investigation permits in the Riotinto East area in May 2021.[10]

The company transferred from the Alternative Investment Market to the main market of the London Stock Exchange in April 2024.[11] It re-domiciled its place of business from Cyprus to Spain and also changed its name to Atalaya Mining Copper SA in January 2025.[12]
