Greenland Mines Brings Skaergaard to EIT RawMaterials Summit 2026 in Brussels
CHARLOTTE, N.C., May 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Greenland Mines Ltd ("Greenland Mines" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: GRML) today announced that Bo Møller Stensgaard, Ph.D., President of Greenland Mines, will participate in the EIT RawMaterials Summit 2026 in Brussels, one of Europe's leading public-private forums for the raw materials sector.
The Summit takes place from May 19 to 21, 2026 at The EGG in Brussels, and brings together policymakers, industrial companies, investors, researchers, and technology developers from across the raw and advanced materials value chain. In connection with the Summit, Dr. Stensgaard has also been invited to participate in the roundtable discussion on May 20 under the Summit session "Mined Once – Utilised in Full: Towards Resource Efficient Mining," hosted by GTK Mintec, the mineral processing and circular-economy pilot plant and division of the Geological Survey of Finland. The session is focused on maximizing value from every tonne mined through advanced mineral processing, improved recovery from side streams and tailings, and more resource-efficient mining systems.
Dr. Stensgaard commented, "EIT RawMaterials Summit 2026 is exactly the kind of forum where the future of European and transatlantic raw-materials value chains is being discussed in practical terms. These discussions not only focus around geology and mining, but also around processing, industrial partnerships, financing, innovation, and strategic supply security. For Greenland Mines, it is important to be present in that conversation as we advance Skaergaard and continue to position the project within a broader North Atlantic critical-minerals corridor.
"Participating in GTK Mintec's roundtable on resource-efficient mining is of particular importance as the discussion is closely aligned with how we think about Skaergaard, which is a large and geologically unusual multi-metal system where the objective is not simply to mine, but over time to evaluate how to recover as much responsible value as possible through modern geology, metallurgy, process design, and environmentally robust development concepts."
The 2026 Summit is organized around the theme "Accelerating Europe's Competitiveness" and is focused on turning European strategic ambition into implementation across extraction, processing, recycling, trusted international partnerships ,and industrial scale-up. Greenland Mines believes the event is highly relevant to the Company's strategy for its Skaergaard Gold, Palladium, Platinum and Critical Metals Project in East Greenland and to its broader vision of helping develop a North Atlantic critical-minerals corridor linking Greenland, Iceland, North America and Europe.
Greenland Mines recently engaged GTK Mintec to support a comprehensive mineralogical, metallurgical, and processing-flow program for Skaergaard. The Company believes the Summit and the GTK Mintec roundtable provide a relevant platform to discuss how complex, polymetallic deposits such as Skaergaard can potentially be developed in ways that seek to recover value not only from gold, palladium and platinum, but also from additional metals such as vanadium, gallium, iron and titanium where technically and economically justified.
The Company also believes that Skaergaard is relevant to a growing policy discussion in Europe and among Western allies around diversified and resilient supply chains for precious and critical metals. Palladium remains a strategically important metal for catalytic applications in the automotive and transport sectors, which account for the large majority of palladium demand, while Russia, under sanction, remains a major source of global mined palladium supply and South Africa is the other leading producing jurisdiction with structural difficulties. Palladium is also used in electronics and other high-reliability industrial applications, reinforcing the importance of secure and diversified sourcing.
Greenland Mines' participation in EIT RawMaterials Summit 2026 follows a series of recent initiatives aimed at positioning Skaergaard as a technically advanced and strategically relevant development project, including the engagement of GTK Mintec for metallurgical and processing work and the launch of the Company's North Atlantic processing site strategy in Iceland. Together, these initiatives are intended to support Greenland Mines' broader vision of building a differentiated project platform connecting Greenlandic mineral resources with low-carbon processing, allied industrial ecosystems ,and secure downstream markets in North America and Europe.
About the Skaergaard Project
The Skaergaard Project is located in Southeast Greenland and hosts a disclosed NI 43-101 Mineral Resource comprising gold, palladium, and platinum with a gross in-situ contained metal value of approximately $68 billion at February 2026 metal prices.¹
The Company is preparing a large multi-technical 2026 field campaign encompassing resource expansion drilling, geotechnical characterization, environmental baseline work, and collection of a 30–50 tonne bulk sample for processing flowsheet development. GTK Mintec has been engaged under a framework agreement to conduct an integrated mineralogical, metallurgical, hydrometallurgical, and pilot-scale processing program in Outokumpu, Finland.
Historical work indicates potential by-product optionality in vanadium, gallium, iron, and titanium within the same host sequence as the primary PGM-Au mineralization; this potential is not reflected in the current Mineral Resource and remains subject to further technical evaluation.²
The Company is also advancing its North Atlantic Critical Minerals Corridor concept, which contemplates Iceland as a potential downstream processing platform given available industrial infrastructure, renewable energy access, and proximity to European and North American markets.
