[SMM Flash: Critical Metals' Greenland Rare Earth Project Receives Green Light] The Tanbreez project in Greenland, a world-class rare earth project owned by US critical minerals developer Critical Metals (CRML), has successfully obtained its core environmental permit, marking the removal of the biggest regulatory hurdle before production. Specifically, Greenland's Environmental Agency for Mineral Resource Activities (EAMRA) has officially approved the geochemical test report and mine closure plan for the "Hill Block" of the Tanbreez mine. These reports were prepared by Danish environmental consulting engineering company NIRAS and submitted for review in late September. The Tanbreez project covers two major mining areas, "Hill" and "Fjord," with proven resources of at least 45 million mt, approximately one-third of which is high-value heavy rare earth. This type of rare earth is widely used in areas such as clean energy and national defense industries, and the Tanbreez project is therefore recognized as the most resource-rich project of its kind globally.
