Critical Metals Corp (CRML) shares surged 11.9% in pre-market trading, reaching a 20-day high, following President Trump's renewed comments on acquiring Greenland, which has sparked strong market interest in its rare earth projects amid escalating geopolitical tensions.

The surge is attributed to the attractiveness of CRML's Tanbreez Rare Earth Project in Greenland, one of the largest rare earth deposits globally. The increasing U.S. government support for the rare earth industry is expected to drive future growth for the company, despite warnings about potential security and climate risks associated with mineral development in Greenland.

This significant price movement reflects a broader optimism in the market regarding metal and rare earth resources, as Trump's remarks not only boosted CRML's stock but also positively impacted other metals stocks, indicating a potential shift in investor sentiment towards the sector.
