Critical Metals Updates on Tanbreez Rare Earth Project Progress
Critical Metals provided shareholders and stakeholders with an update on the Company's project acceleration initiatives and ongoing development activities at the Tanbreez Rare Earth Project in Greenland. The Company continues to advance its strategic acceleration plan, with significant progress achieved across infrastructure development, field operations, geological programs, and logistics designed to support the next phase of project advancement. Construction activities continue to progress at the Tanbreez Project, with infrastructure works advancing according to plan. Footings for the project's pilot plant headquarters and infrastructure facilities are now underway, establishing a critical foundation for future processing and operational activities. In parallel, development of camp facilities, which are adjacent to the recently completed Qaqortoq International Airport, continues, including the construction and enhancement of the project mess hall and cantina offices, which will support expanding site personnel and operational requirements as activity levels increase. Critical Metals has further strengthened its project development capabilities with additional drill rigs now fully assembled and prepared in the workshop. The rigs are scheduled for mobilization to the field in the coming weeks supporting expanded drilling programs and resource development for final resource and mine planning activities across the project area. The Company recently hosted a collaborative technical meeting between NIRAS and Critical Metals Corp. focused on the planning of geotechnical drilling surveys. The collaborative session reviewed upcoming survey programs and geotechnical work designed to support engineering design, infrastructure placement, and future development planning. Field crews have commenced surveying and preparation activities within the Upper Fjord and Hill Deposit areas. These efforts are focused on identifying and delineating material for bulk sampling programs that will provide feedstock for pilot plant testing and metallurgical evaluation. The bulk sample program represents an important milestone in advancing the understanding of ore characteristics and supporting future project development decisions. As part of the broader project acceleration strategy, the Company has also facilitated additional personnel and operational logistics through new jet arrivals at Qaqortoq International Airport. These arrivals will support increased site activity, technical programs, and infrastructure development initiatives planned for the upcoming field season.
