Background

The EIC STEP scheme offers equity investments between €10 and €30 million, aiming to leverage private co-investment and achieve financing rounds of €50 to €150 million or more. The program is designed to scale-up innovation in Europe's strategic technology sectors such as clean and resource efficient technologies including strategic raw materials. The investment will support project construction which will incorporate innovative EU-made clean breakthrough technologies. These efforts aim to ensure a cleaner critical long-term supply of raw materials for EU offtakers while also creating jobs and fostering prosperity for the people of Greenland.

On July 14, 2025, and February 9, 2026, Greenland Resources A/S (the “Company”) applied for an investment to the EIC STEP. The application passed an eligibility assessment and an interview with an evaluation panel of six jurors that gave a GO Sovereignty STEP Seal status and recommended to the EIC Fund a €10 million equity investment in Greenland Resources A/S. As part of the EIC STEP requirements, the Company has received firm commitments for an additional €40 million from two qualified investors to co-invest alongside the EIC Fund. The Company will provide updates on this and other current capex equity funding efforts in due course.

About Greenland Resources A/S

Greenland Resources A/S is a Greenlandic company registered in Denmark, 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 and innovative strategic European built technology that significantly reduces emissions and opex cost. The Malmbjerg project benefits from an NI 43-101 Definitive Feasibility Study completed by Tetra Tech in 2022, with a 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 Greenland Nuuk and 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.
