CHARLOTTE, N.C., May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Greenland Mines Ltd (“Greenland Mines” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: GRML) is pleased to announce that the Company and its 80%-owned Greenland subsidiary Major Precious Greenland A/S have become members of the European Raw Materials Alliance (“ERMA”), an industry‑driven alliance established by the European Commission to help secure reliable, secure and sustainable access to critical and strategic raw materials for Europe’s industrial ecosystems.
ERMA, managed by EIT RawMaterials, brings together stakeholders from across the raw‑materials value chain – including mining and exploration companies, processing and recycling firms, OEMs, technology providers, research organisations, investors, regions and NGOs – to identify investment cases, remove barriers, and support the development of resilient, low‑carbon supply chains for critical raw materials, advanced materials and processing know‑how. The alliance plays a central role in implementing the EU’s Action Plan on Critical Raw Materials and supports emerging initiatives under the new EU Critical Raw Materials Act.
Bo Møller Stensgaard, Ph.D., Greenland Mines Ltd President, commented: “Joining the European Raw Materials Alliance with both Greenland Mines and Major Precious Greenland A/S is an important step in positioning Skaergaard where it belongs: at the heart of the European, North American and transatlantic discussion on secure, low‑carbon critical‑raw‑materials supply. ERMA is the central industrial ecosystem for critical raw materials in Europe, and we are pleased to now be part of that community as we advance Skaergaard.
“Our strategy is to build a North Atlantic critical‑minerals corridor that links world‑class geology in Greenland, developed by Greenland Mines, with potential low‑carbon processing in Iceland and direct access to both European and North American markets. ERMA provides an ideal platform to discuss this concept with industrial end‑users, technology partners and policymakers, and to explore how Skaergaard can fit into future transatlantic supply and value chains.”
While EU Strategic Mineral Project designations under the EU Critical Raw Materials Act are decided by the European Commission through a formal application process, ERMA serves as an investment pipeline and support platform for high‑potential raw‑materials projects aligned with those objectives, helping to identify and mature investment cases across the value chain.
Aligning Skaergaard with Europe’s critical raw‑materials agenda
Membership in ERMA positions the Skaergaard Gold, Palladium, Platinum and Critical Metals Project squarely within the European conversation on critical‑raw‑materials security, value‑chain resilience and industrial competitiveness. ERMA’s stated objectives include:
- Diversifying Europe’s supply of critical and strategic raw materials from both primary and secondary sources
- Identifying and supporting investment projects along the full value chain, from mining and processing to recycling and circular‑economy solutions
- Creating industrial clusters and partnerships that can accelerate project development and deployment
For Greenland Mines, ERMA membership provides a structured platform to:
- Engage directly with European industrial users in sectors such as automotive, energy, defence, aerospace and high‑tech manufacturing, where PGMs and other Skaergaard metals play key roles
- Explore options for strategic partnerships, offtake frameworks and co‑investment concepts that can support the advancement and de‑risking of the Skaergaard Project
- Contribute to broader discussions on how Greenland and the wider North Atlantic region can support Europe’s critical‑raw‑materials and climate objectives
ERMA has already shown its willingness to support high‑potential raw‑materials projects in Greenland. Greenland Mines’ membership builds on this emerging track record of Greenland‑EU collaboration in raw materials.
Connecting to the North Atlantic critical‑minerals corridor
The Company’s entry into ERMA complements its recently announced North Atlantic Processing Site Strategy, under which Skaergaard ore would be mined and pre‑processed in East Greenland and then potentially shipped a short distance to Iceland for low‑carbon, geothermal‑powered downstream processing, forming the backbone of a prospective North Atlantic Critical Metals corridor.
By combining a large, multi‑metal resource base in Greenland with a potential low‑carbon processing hub in Iceland and participation in ERMA’s EU‑centred industrial ecosystem, Greenland Mines is positioning Skaergaard as a strategic project for both Europe and North America with the ability to contribute to secure, resilient and transparent raw‑materials supply chains across the Atlantic.
Although Greenland Mines is a US‑registered, Nasdaq‑listed company, the addition of ERMA membership – alongside the Company’s membership of the Greenland Business Association through Major Precious Greenland A/S – highlights its commitment to working within and across both European and North American frameworks to unlock the full potential of Skaergaard in a way that aligns with allied climate, security and industrial‑policy objectives.
