Greenland Resources Inc. (Cboe CA: MOLY | FSE: M0LY) (“Greenland
Resources” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it
submitted to the Greenland Minerals Licenses and Safety Authority
an updated version of the Social Impact (the “SIA”) for the
Malmbjerg Molybdenum Project in east Greenland (the “Project”).
This press release features multimedia. View

https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20240508752989/en/
The updated SIA incorporates the new legal provisions set under
the Mining Act that came into effect in January 1, 2024; provides
new positive community engagement updates that occurred since the
last SIA submission press released January 3, 2023; and added the
green power generation alternatives from the renewable energy
report press released by the Company on December 18, 2023. Although
the SIA is not part of the requirements to obtain an exploitation
license under the new Mining Act, it remains an important
regulatory requirement and is relevant for potential capex
investors and offtakers.
The findings of the SIA are very positive for the local
communities and stakeholders. When in production, the Project has
the potential to become the largest public revenue generating
source in Greenland for decades to come and largest molybdenum
supplier to the EU Green Deal.
The Company also wishes to announce that it will be
participating in the molybdenum symposium “from sustainable mining
to high performance steels” in Vienna Austria organize by ASMET
(see:
https://asmet.org/event/mo4steel-from-sustainable-mining-to-high-performance-steels/).
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 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 water usage, low aquatic
disturbance and low footprint due to modularized infrastructure.
The Malmbjerg project benefits from a NI 43-101 Definitive
Feasibility Study completed by Tetra Tech in 2022, with Proven and
Probable Reserves of 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.
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. For further details, please refer to our web site
(www.greenlandresources.ca) and our Canadian regulatory filings on
Greenland Resources’ profile at www.sedarplus.com.
The Project is supported by the European Raw Materials Alliance
(ERMA). ERMA is managed by EIT RawMaterials, an organization within
the EIT, a body of the European Union.
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 24% 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% of the EU consumption, of environmentally friendly high quality
molybdenum from a responsible EU Associate country, for decades to
come. The high quality of the Malmbjerg ore, having low impurity
content in phosphorus, tin, antimony, and arsenic, makes it an
ideal source of molybdenum for the high-performance steel industry
lead worldwide by Europe, specifically the Scandinavian countries
and Germany.
Forward Looking Statements
This news release contains "forward-looking information" (also
referred to as "forward looking statements"), which relate to
future events or future performance and reflect management’s
current expectations and assumptions. Often, but not always,
forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words
such as "plans", "hopes", "expects", "is expected", "budget",
"scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates", or
"believes" or variations (including negative variations) of such
words and phrases, or state that certain actions, events or results

statements or information. Forward-looking statements or
information in this news release relate to, among other things: the
Company’s objectives, goals or future plans; planned capex
financing and outcomes of due diligence reviews; construction and
engineering initiatives for the Malmbjerg molybdenum project;
statements, exploration results, potential mineralization, the

exploration and mine development plans, timing of the commencement
of operations and estimates of market conditions.
These forward-looking statements and information reflect the
Company’s current views with respect to future events and are
necessarily based upon a number of assumptions that, while
considered reasonable by the Company, are inherently subject to
significant operational, business, economic and regulatory

planned development and other activities on the Project; favourable
outcomes of due diligence reviews; planned energy requirements of
the Project; obtaining the permitting on the Project in a timely
manner; no adverse changes to the planned operations of the
Project; continued favourable relationships with local communities;
current EU and other initiatives remaining in place into the
future; expected demand for molybdenum in the EU and abroad,
including by companies that expressed an interest in purchasing
molybdenum; our mineral reserve estimates and the assumptions upon
which they are based, including geotechnical and metallurgical
