Greenland approves Tanbreez mine and closure plans

The Government of Greenland approved Critical Metals' Mining Plan and Closure Plan for the Tanbreez project. The approvals allow Tanbreez Mining Greenland A/S to pursue extraction of 19 critical elements under its exploitation licence through 2050. Critical Metals still requires activity-specific operating permits before construction can start.

The approval establishes the project-level mining and closure framework, while the remaining operating permits remain a condition before construction. Clear Street reiterated its Buy rating after the decision and said it expects a positive share-price response.
