Galaxy Resources flags impairment charge on review of flagship lithium project

Australia’s Galaxy Resources on Wednesday flagged a non-cash impairment charge of $150 million to $185 million for the first half of 2019, as it carries out a review of its flagship project in Western Australia.

The lithium miner attributed the charge to the Mt Cattlin mine project’s development costs related to its acquisition of General Mining Ltd.
