Critical Metals Spikes 19% on European Lithium Deal Positioning

Critical Metals stock jumped 19% to $7.91 on Tuesday as traders positioned around its pending $835 million purchase of European Lithium, while the VanEck Rare Earth and Strategic Metals ETF fell 2% to $78.29. MP Materials rose just 1% to $58.09 and United States Antimony gained 2% to $5.21, ruling out any broad sector or policy catalyst behind the move. No confirmed company announcement was identified, leaving the European Lithium deal as the most plausible driver for the pre-revenue mining developer, whose Wolfsberg lithium project is not expected to produce until 2028 or 2029. Critical Metals carries a beta of 1.9, going-concern language in its filings, and 42.9% insider ownership that keeps the float thin and amplifies swings.

Critical Metals Corp. launches strategic review to focus on Tanbreez rare earth project

Critical Metals Corp. has retained Clear Street as financial advisor to evaluate value-maximizing pathways for its non-core assets, aiming to sharpen focus on its flagship Tanbreez rare earth project in Greenland. The review will consider spin-offs, asset sales, joint ventures, or other transactions to monetize legacy and non-core holdings while accelerating Tanbreez, one of the world's largest rare earth deposits. Chairman Tony Sage stated that concentrating on Tanbreez is the clearest path to long-term shareholder value, positioning the company as a premier Western source of heavy rare earths. White & Case LLP is serving as legal advisor. There is no assurance the process will result in a specific transaction, and the company does not plan to disclose further developments until board approval.

Critical Metals and European Lithium amend merger implementation mechanics

Critical Metals and European Lithium have amended their Scheme Implementation Deed for Critical Metals' proposed acquisition of European Lithium, modifying specific implementation mechanics while keeping existing commercial and economic terms intact. European Lithium shareholders and listed optionholders holding 50,000 or fewer European Lithium shares or listed options on the applicable record date will be eligible to participate in a sale facility, through which an appointed agent will sell the Critical Metals common shares on the open market and distribute the net cash proceeds to eligible holders in lieu of the shares. The companies continue to work toward satisfying remaining conditions to complete the transaction, with European Lithium expecting to distribute its Scheme Booklet, including an Independent Expert's Report, in late July or early August 2026. Upon completion, existing European Lithium shareholders are expected to own approximately 41% of the outstanding common shares of the combined company.

Critical Metals begins 10,000m diamond drilling at Tanbreez rare earth project

Critical Metals has commenced a 10,000-metre diamond drilling programme at its wholly owned Tanbreez Rare Earth Project in southern Greenland. The drilling targets key mineralised zones identified in earlier exploration and is intended to support resource growth, geological modelling, mine planning, and future development. Essential accommodation and operational support infrastructure has been completed, with contractors and drill rigs now positioned across target areas. Field teams will spend the next two to three weeks verifying ground conditions and marking blast sites, while ongoing tasks include geological mapping, surface verification, and environmental monitoring. Data from the 2026 campaign is expected to underpin resource updates and feasibility studies for what the company describes as one of the largest undeveloped rare earth projects globally, with significant concentrations of heavy rare earth elements used in permanent magnets, electric vehicles, and defence systems.
