Allied Critical Metals Secures Major European Union Strategic Designation for its Flagship Borralha Tungsten Project

Allied Critical Metals' 100%-owned Borralha Tungsten Project in northern Portugal was named to the European Commission's selection of 46 Strategic Projects under the EU Critical Raw Materials Act. It is the only tungsten extraction project and the only Portuguese project in the group, qualifying it for streamlined permitting with a maximum 27-month timeline for extraction projects plus support in identifying public and private financing. The project holds an MRE of 1.0Mt Measured at 0.22% WO3, 12.0Mt Indicated at 0.21%, and 7.7Mt Inferred at 0.18% at a 0.09% cut-off; designation does not guarantee funding and standard environmental assessments remain in force.

AECOM supports low-carbon, climate-resilient redevelopment in Montréal using One Click LCA

AECOM provided whole-life carbon insights for the City of Montréal's redevelopment of a major transportation corridor into a low-carbon, climate-resilient neighborhood, using One Click LCA's Carbon Designer 3D to estimate material quantities and test design scenarios from early models. Integrated into AECOM's ScopeX decarbonization workflow during the pre-design phase, scenario modeling showed that subtle design decisions such as roadway width and overpass structural configuration yielded meaningful embodied-carbon reductions before detailed designs existed. The release is authored and sourced by software vendor One Click LCA as a video case study; it discloses no contract value, financial terms, or new guidance for AECOM, whose boilerplate cites $16.1 billion in fiscal 2025 revenue.

RESUBMISSION: Allied Critical Metals Strengthens Borralha Project with Broad Tungsten Intercepts at Santa Helena Breccia, Including 15.8 Metres at 0.36% WO3 and 25.6 Metres at 0.25% WO3

Allied Critical Metals reported assays from four infill drill holes at the Santa Helena Breccia, headlined by 15.8 metres at 0.36% WO3 and 25.6 metres at 0.25% WO3 within broader lower-grade tungsten intervals. The results are generally consistent with the mineral resource model underpinning the April 2026 Borralha PEA and feed resource conversion, mine planning, geotechnical and metallurgical work as the project advances toward feasibility. Exploration continues at the newly discovered Venise Breccia about 400 metres northwest, where the discovery hole returned 13.0 metres at 1.00% WO3 including 3.0 metres at 4.15% WO3; assays are pending on holes completed to roughly 775.9 and 665.2 metres. The company also reiterated progress toward closing the U.S.$15 million second tranche of its U.S.$25 million non-brokered private placement at $2.05 per share, part of a financing package that includes a U.S.$15 million project financing facility.
