James Walker, CEO and President of the Company, said,“We are happy to share our progress as we advance towardscommissioning our lumps plant, the first plant of its kind in America.There has been tremendous interest in our metallurgical fluorsparlumps, giving great confidence of a robust and deep market that we aregrowing closer to supplying.”
In 2018 the U.S. government classified fluorspar as aCritical Mineral, “deemed critical to U.S. national security and theeconomy.” Fluorspar remains the only non-metallic Critical Mineral,which is 100% imported in the entire country. Fluorspar’sclassification as a Critical Mineral in the United States translatesto a faster permitting period, enabling mining operations to initiatemore quickly than operations for conventional minerals.

DISCLOSURE AND FORWARD-LOOKINGSTATEMENTS:
Companies typically rely oncomprehensive feasibility reports on mineral reserve estimates toreduce the risks and uncertainties associated with a productiondecision. Historically, situations where the issuer decides to put amineral project into production without first establishing mineralreserves supported by a technical report and completing a feasibilitystudy have a higher risk of economic or technical failure, though someindustrial mineral ventures are relatively simple operations with lowlevels of investment and risk, where the operating entity hasdetermined that a formal prefeasibility or feasibility study inconformance with NI 43-101 and 43-101 CP is not required for aproduction decision. Based on historical engineering work, geologicalreports, historical production data and current engineering workcompleted or in the process by Ares, the Company intends to moveforward with the development of its Utah asset.
