Further to the April 27, 2026 press release announcing an update on an equity investment from the European Innovation Council, detailed due diligence has commenced. The Company expects the due diligence to be completed by the end of June and if favorable, an investment decision shortly thereafter. Upon a favorable decision, the investment terms of the €50 million investment, will be negotiated and announced. The Company is also evaluating additional financing alternatives. Further updates will be provided.

Scope of Work

The 2026 Malmbjerg summer field program is scheduled to commence around mid-August and will be completed before the end of September. Up to 25 professionals from Greenland, Canada and Austria will undertake the work utilizing a vessel from Iceland equipped with a helicopter pad to provide accommodation and an operations / communications center. The primary focus of the field program is to conduct detailed engineering in several areas above feasibility level to prepare for preconstruction and longer-term equipment deliveries and to undertake an aggressive metallurgical program for magnesium and rare earth elements recoveries.

Infrastructure

  • Detailed design work on the mine support buildings (administration, powerhouse, fuel tank farms and maintenance shop, warehouse facilities) as well as ore and waste rock storage.
  • Detailed design work on the glacier access road located on the Mellem, Sirrus and Schuchert glaciers which will support the main truck transportation route for all equipment and consumables.
  • Installation of survey control stations to facilitate the detailed engineering location of mining and infrastructure installations.
  • Detailed engineering / geotechnical / geophysics work by Doppelmayr and other consultants on the proposed Doppelmayr RopeCon installation comprised of 5 transfer stations, 11 towers and 23 km of special continuous conveyor belting from the crushing station to the processing plant.

Metallurgy

  • Further to the January 21, 2026 press release regarding reassays for magnesium and rare earth elements, the chemical and mineralogical characterization of the composite samples and flotation testing is underway, including the beneficiation of molybdenum and the assessment of magnesium and rare earth elements content in the flotation tailings. In addition, the Company collected around 2,000 kg of seawater from Greenland and is conducting magnesium recovery amenability tests using innovative technologies to further advance saline water magnesium recovery studies.
  • As part of the upcoming field program, the Company will collect up to eight tonnes of diamond drill core and 14,000 kg of sea and fresh water from Greenland and will be undertaking an aggressive metallurgical program including pilot plant testwork. The program will include feasibility level magnesium recoveries from saline and fresh water using novel technologies as well magnesium and rare earth elements recoveries from the diamond drill core.

About Greenland Resources Inc.

Greenland Resources is a Canadian and Greenlandic public company listed in the Toronto Stock Exchange with the Ontario Securities Commission as its principal regulator and is focused on the development of its 100% owned Climax type primary molybdenum deposit located in central east Greenland. The Project has also magnesium as a byproduct, a market dominated 89% by China. The Malmbjerg project is an open pit operation with an environmentally friendly mine design focused on reduced water usage, low aquatic disturbance and low footprint due to modularized infrastructure. The Malmbjerg project benefits from an NI 43-101 Definitive Feasibility Study completed by Tetra Tech in 2022, with an US$820 million capex and a levered after-tax IRR of 33.8% and payback of 2.4 years, using US$18 per pound molybdenum price. The Proven and Probable Reserves are 245 million tonnes at 0.176% MoS2, for 571 million pounds of contained molybdenum metal. As the high-grade molybdenum is mined for the first half of the mine life, the average annual production for years one to ten is 32.8 million pounds per year of contained molybdenum metal at an average grade of 0.23% MoS2, approximately 25% of EU total yearly consumption and 100% of EU defence needs. On byproduct magnesium, the project uses approximately 35,000 m3 per day of saline water with around 900 ppm of magnesium and the Company is working on extracting magnesium from the saline water using innovative technologies. In addition, the molybdenum concentrate has a magnesium and rare earth elements component. The Company is aiming to incorporate magnesium and rare earth elements in the economics of the feasibility study. On June 19, 2025, The Company was awarded an exploitation license for molybdenum and magnesium. With offices in Toronto, the Company is led by a management team with an extensive track record in the mining industry and capital markets.

On December 3, 2025 the European Commission presented RESourceEU, and mentioned the Company’s Malmbjerg project in Greenland as a priority EU project. The Project is supported by the European Raw Materials Alliance (ERMA). ERMA is managed by EIT RawMaterials GmbH, an organization within the EIT, a body of the European Union.
