TORONTO -- 

Greenland Resources Inc. (NEO:MOLY, FSE:M0LY) (“Greenland Resources” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Hon. Brian Tobin has joined our Advisory Board with the objective of providing strategic guidance in the development of our Malmbjerg molybdenum deposit in east Greenland as well as strengthening our relations with the relevant financial stakeholders.

Brian served as the Federal Minister of Industry from October 2000-January 2002, prior to which he served as the Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador from 1996-2000. He served as a Member of Parliament from 1980-1996, and as Minister of Fisheries and Oceans in the federal cabinet from 1993-1996. Mr. Tobin was named as an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2013 for his contribution to Canadian public policy as a federal and provincial politician, and for supporting economic development in Newfoundland and Labrador. Brian is currently Vice Chair, Bank of Montreal Financial Group. Among others, he previously served as Executive Chairman, President & CEO of Consolidated Thompson Iron Mines Ltd. (CLM), an iron ore mining project located in the province of Labrador that went from greenfield exploration to production and was sold to Cliffs Natural Resources for $4.9 billion (C$17.25 per share). CLM was one of the biggest global mining deals in 2011. Brian is a member of the Institute of Corporate Directors and a graduate of the Directors Education Program. He has been awarded honorary degrees by both St. Francis Xavier University and Brock University.

Dr. Ruben Shiffman, Chairman, commented: “We all know Brian as a very successful politician, mining executive and banker, what not many people know is that while on my board of our previous successful TSX listed mining company, Brian was not only instrumental in raising money but was also my strongest supporter in creating a unique Corporate Social Responsibility structure where we incorporated a poor community of artisanal miners into our mining project with actions that went way beyond legal obligations, contracts, and license agreements. Some of the empirical results were that people in the community increased their wealth significantly thus improving the quality of life of their future generations; infrastructure like roads, the school and church improved; the community was a significant shareholder and represented most of the work force in the Company and kids learned English as a second language.”

Hon. Brian Tobin commented: “I have enjoyed a strong working relationship with Ruben in the past. He is hard working, has integrity in all his relationships and understands that this project needs not only capital and talent but a close working relationship and the endorsement of the people and government of Greenland. I believe Ruben has assembled a world class team to deliver this project and I look forward to working with him to bring economic opportunity to Greenland society and critical mineral security to Europe.”

About Greenland Resources Inc.

Greenland Resources is a Canadian public company with the Ontario Securities Commission as its principal regulator and is focused on the development of its 100% owned world-class Climax type pure molybdenum deposit located in central east Greenland. The Malmbjerg molybdenum project is an open pit operation with an environmentally friendly mine design focused on reduced CO2 emissions and water usage, low aquatic disturbance and low footprint due to modularized infrastructure with Proven and Probable Reserves of 245 million tonnes at 0.176% MoS2, for 571 million pounds of contained molybdenum metal. The Malmbjerg project benefits from a NI 43-101 Definitive Feasibility Study completed by Tetra Tech in 2022, which concluded an expected Base case after-tax IRR of 22.4%, NPV6% of US$1.17 billion (€1.02 billion) and a Levered pre-tax IRR of 40.4%, after tax IRR of 33.8% and payback of 2.4 years.

The project had a previous exploitation license granted in 2009. With offices in Toronto, the Company is led by a management team with an extensive track record in the mining industry and capital markets.

About Molybdenum and the European Union

Molybdenum is a critical metal used mainly in steel and chemicals that is needed in all technologies in the upcoming green energy transition (World Bank, 2020; IEA, 2021). When added to steel and cast iron, it enhances strength, hardenability, weldability, toughness, temperature strength, and corrosion resistance. Based on data from the International Molybdenum Association and the European Commission Steel Report, the world produced around 576 million pounds of molybdenum in 2021 where the European Union (“EU”) as the second largest steel producer in the world used approximately 25% of global molybdenum supply and has no domestic molybdenum production. To a greater degree, the EU steel dependent industries like the automotive, construction, and engineering, represent around 18% of the EU’s US$16 trillion GDP. Greenland Resources strategically located Malmbjerg molybdenum project has the potential to supply in and for the EU approximately 25 million pounds per year, of environmentally friendly molybdenum from a responsible EU Associate member country, for decades to come. The high quality of the Malmbjerg ore, having low impurity content, makes it an ideal source of molybdenum for the world leading high performance steel industry in Europe.
