Roy Bonnell, CEO & Director of Allied Critical Metals, commented: "Allied is proud to join the Critical Minerals Forum at such a pivotal time for global supply chain security. Tungsten is recognized as one of the most strategic and irreplaceable critical minerals, yet supply is overwhelmingly concentrated in China. By advancing Borralha & Vila Verde, we are working to establish Europe's next major tungsten mines - and our participation in CMF ensures we can contribute to shaping the policies, partnerships, and strategies that will underpin Western supply resilience."
The Critical Minerals Forum (CMF) is a leading non-profit initiative dedicated to strengthening secure, transparent, and resilient global supply chains for critical and strategic metals. Bringing together governments, industry leaders, investors, and technology innovators, the CMF provides a collaborative platform to advance responsible sourcing, promote sustainable development, and reduce reliance on unstable or concentrated supply regions. With a mission to support energy transition, defense readiness, and advanced manufacturing, the CMF works to ensure the materials essential to modern economies remain accessible, reliable, and responsibly produced.
Rob Strayer, President of the Critical Minerals Forum, stated: "Allied Critical Metals brings important expanded capacity to the supply of tungsten, which is a critical mineral that is a priority for the Forum for both national and economic security reasons. Allied's upstream perspective and regional positioning make them a valuable contributor to the Forum."
Through its membership, Allied is contributing to CMF working groups focused on supply chain diversification, midstream processing, and data-driven market forecasting. The Company's insights are particularly relevant to tungsten, known as the "military metal" for its essential role in defence applications, industrial tooling, aerospace, and clean energy technologies.
The Borralha Tungsten Project is planned to be advanced through resource expansion, updated technical studies, and project development aligned with European and North American critical minerals strategies. By reviving one of Europe's historically significant tungsten districts, Allied is positioning itself as a cornerstone supplier to allied nations seeking to diversify supply chains away from China and Russia.
