Critical Metals Corporation's stock surged 5.04% during Thursday's trading session, extending its recent upward momentum in the rare earths sector.
The rally was driven by multiple positive developments for the company. Critical Metals entered into a memorandum of understanding with a Saudi Arabian firm to develop, own and operate a rare earth processing plant and refining facility for resources from its Tanbreez mine in Greenland. The company also disclosed it has signed four non-binding term sheets for offtake from the Tanbreez project, potentially securing future revenue streams.
Additional catalysts included political developments related to Greenland, where Critical Metals' key project is located. Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced a "framework" agreement concerning Greenland and stated he would not impose new European tariffs that were scheduled to begin in February. The company also held a business update conference call providing clarity on the Tanbreez project's development and its strategic importance in the U.S. defense supply chain.
