Greenland Mines has entered into a framework agreement with GTK Mintec, the mineral processing and circular-economy pilot plant of the Geological Survey of Finland, or GTK. The agreement is to carry out an extensive mineralogical, metallurgical, processing and environmental / hydro-geochemical investigation program for the company's Skaergaard Gold, Palladium, Platinum and Critical Metals Project in East Greenland. GTK Mintec, located in Outokumpu, Finland, combines mineral research laboratories with an industrial-scale pilot plant, a dedicated tailings and extractive-waste test area, and process-water research facilities. The facility has been operating since the mid-1980s, now handling around 100 projects per year, including 8-12 industrial-scale pilot runs. Under the new framework agreement, GTK Mintec will work in close collaboration with Greenland Mines and technical advisors to design and execute an integrated testwork program that spans the full value chain from ore characterization to pilot-scale processing and tailings behavior. Skaergaard is a large, layered mafic intrusion hosting one of the world's largest undeveloped palladium-gold-platinum resources, with additional potential for iron, titanium, vanadium, gallium and other critical metals in vanadium-bearing titanomagnetite and related phases.

Greenland Mines entered into a consultancy agreement with WSP Danmark, part of the global WSP group, to design and implement a full Environmental Impact Assessment baseline program at the Company's Skaergaard Gold-Palladium-Platinum and Critical Metal Project in eastern Greenland. Under the terms of the agreement, WSP Denmark will provide technical advice and assistance related to baseline surveys for the EIA, support the development of the Terms of Reference, and prepare the EIA report required for an exploitation license application to the Government of Greenland. This is structured to align with Government of Greenland's updated exploitation permitting framework from 2025. The work program with WSP Denmark is designed to meet the environmental requirements associated with the Company's planned exploitation license application, including Terms of Reference preparation, environmental baseline data collection, and the drafting of a compliant EIA for public consultation and regulatory approval. By initiating the environmental work, Greenland Mines is both accelerating the Skaergaard development and permitting process and demonstrating a strong, long-term commitment to responsible development in Greenland.
