Allied Critical Metals Joins the Critical Minerals Forum to Advance Secure Tungsten Supply

Allied Critical Metals Joins the Critical Minerals Forum to Advance Secure Tungsten Supply

Allied Critical Metals Inc. (CSE: ACM,OTC:ACMIF) (OTCQB: ACMIF) (FSE: 0VJ0) ("Allied" or the "Company"), which is focused on its 100% owned past producing Borralha and Vila Verde tungsten projects in northern Portugal, is pleased to announce its membership in the Critical Minerals Forum ("CMF" a leading U.S.-based non-profit initiative dedicated to strengthening secure and transparent global critical mineral supply chains.

The CMF convenes key stakeholders across the critical minerals value chain - including companies, investors, end-users, policymakers, and research organizations - with a shared mission of building reliable and resilient supply networks for minerals essential to technology, defense, energy, and advanced manufacturing.

Allied's flagship Borralha Tungsten Project, strategically located in northern Portugal, represents one of the largest undeveloped tungsten deposits in Europe and a potential near-term source of supply outside of China and Russia. With a current NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate of 4.98 Mt @ 0.22% WO₃ (Indicated) and 7.01 Mt @ 0.20% WO₃ (Inferred), Borralha has the potential to provide a stable and scalable source of tungsten concentrate to Western markets. Allied's mineral resource estimate for its Borralha Tungsten Project is further detailed in its technical report entitled, "Technical Report on the Borralha Property, Parish of Salto, District of Vila Real, Portugal', dated effective July 31, 2024" which is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Roy Bonnell, CEO & Director of Allied Critical Metals, commented: "Allied is proud to join the Critical Minerals Forum at such a pivotal time for global supply chain security. Tungsten is recognized as one of the most strategic and irreplaceable critical minerals, yet supply is overwhelmingly concentrated in China. By advancing Borralha & Vila Verde, we are working to establish Europe's next major tungsten mines - and our participation in CMF ensures we can contribute to shaping the policies, partnerships, and strategies that will underpin Western supply resilience."

The Critical Minerals Forum (CMF) is a leading non-profit initiative dedicated to strengthening secure, transparent, and resilient global supply chains for critical and strategic metals. Bringing together governments, industry leaders, investors, and technology innovators, the CMF provides a collaborative platform to advance responsible sourcing, promote sustainable development, and reduce reliance on unstable or concentrated supply regions. With a mission to support energy transition, defense readiness, and advanced manufacturing, the CMF works to ensure the materials essential to modern economies remain accessible, reliable, and responsibly produced.

Rob Strayer, President of the Critical Minerals Forum, stated: "Allied Critical Metals brings important expanded capacity to the supply of tungsten, which is a critical mineral that is a priority for the Forum for both national and economic security reasons. Allied's upstream perspective and regional positioning make them a valuable contributor to the Forum."

Through its membership, Allied is contributing to CMF working groups focused on supply chain diversification, midstream processing, and data-driven market forecasting. The Company's insights are particularly relevant to tungsten, known as the "military metal" for its essential role in defence applications, industrial tooling, aerospace, and clean energy technologies.

The Borralha Tungsten Project is planned to be advanced through resource expansion, updated technical studies, and project development aligned with European and North American critical minerals strategies. By reviving one of Europe's historically significant tungsten districts, Allied is positioning itself as a cornerstone supplier to allied nations seeking to diversify supply chains away from China and Russia.

Australia could benefit from redirected global capital flows in the wake of new US tariffs under President Donald Trump — but only if it maintains its commitment to open markets, according to the country’s Productivity Commission.

In its latest Trade and Assistance Review, the commission warns against retaliatory trade measures, noting such moves would come at a cost. Deputy Chair Alex Robson has cautioned that escalation could “spiral into a broader trade war” with serious consequences for Australia and the global economy.

“Increasing our direct barriers to trade and investment, even if in retaliation, would come at a cost,” the review reads.
