The definitive offtake agreement between RE Alloys and Critical Metals is expected to positively impact both companies' stock prices by securing a long-term, U.S.-aligned supply chain for heavy rare earth elements. This reduces reliance on China and positions RE Alloys to meet U.S. federal procurement restrictions, benefiting the defense and electric mobility industries.

RE Alloys Inc. and Critical Metals have signed a definitive long-term offtake agreement for 15% of the monthly Phase 1 production from Critical Metals's Tanbreez Project in southern Denmark — Greenland. This agreement, executed on May 20, 2026, replaces a previous non-binding letter of intent and establishes a 15-year term. The deal is a cornerstone of RE Alloys' mine-to-magnet strategy, aiming to secure a U.S.-aligned source of heavy rare earth elements like Dysprosium and Terbium for its downstream operations. This move is critical for serving the United States — United States Department of Defense, United States — United States Department of Energy, United States — NASA, and the broader U.S. industrial base, especially ahead of expanded U.S. federal procurement restrictions on Chinese rare earth content effective January 1, 2027. The Tanbreez Project, now 92.5% owned by Critical Metals after approval from the Government of Denmark — Greenland, is recognized as one of the largest known heavy rare earth element deposits globally.
