The Metals Company (TMC) CEO Gerard Barron defended deep-sea mining, calling it 'picking up rocks' and dismissing moratorium calls as 'virtue signaling.' Greenpeace and Jane Fonda criticized TMC's environmental impact and lack of proof for its claims. TMC seeks U.S. approval to mine in the Pacific, but no permit has been issued. Forty-six countries support a ban or moratorium.

Critical Metals (CRML) shares rose over 30% to $9.60, while TMC and USA Rare Earth (USAR) also gained after a U.S.-Denmark-Greenland security agreement boosted interest in Greenland's critical minerals. The rally is driven by strategic expectations, not immediate project changes. Key technical levels are $9.60 for CRML, $4 for TMC, and $17 for USAR.

US rare-earth mining stocks rose on Monday, with Critical Metals up 37%, following a US-Denmark agreement on Greenland. The deal is seen as a step toward reducing US dependence on Chinese rare-earth supplies, aligning with Trump's focus on securing domestic supply chains. Key movers include USA Rare Earth, MP Materials, TMC The Metals Company, and Ramaco Resources.

Permits could be issued within months, aiming to secure critical minerals for U.S. supply chains. Environmentalists express concerns over potential biodiversity loss. The Metals Company and Impossible Metals have applied for permits. U.S. access to critical minerals, often processed by Chinese companies, has decreased, increasing pressure to boost domestic mining.

USA Rare Earth (USAR) completed a $2.8B acquisition of Serra Verde, expecting $1.8B EBITDA by 2030. TMC (TMC) faces regulatory delays in seabed mining. Both companies aim to benefit from U.S. critical minerals sourcing.

Oklo, NuScale Power, and TMC The Metals Company are speculative bets with varying progress. NuScale is closest to a deal, while Oklo faces delays and TMC awaits approvals. All are early-stage, money-losing ventures.
