Greenland Mines Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRML) has entered into a strategic share exchange agreement with AnorTech Inc. (TSX.V: ANOR) (OTCQB: ANORF), acquiring an initial 9.9% equity interest in the Greenland-focused technology and resource development company. The agreement includes an option to increase ownership to as much as 19.9% within six months. The transaction positions Greenland Mines to expand beyond upstream resource development into the midstream processing segment of the critical materials value chain.
AnorTech is advancing a proprietary process designed to produce sustainable smelter-grade alumina and high-purity alumina from anorthosite while eliminating conventional bauxite-residue tailings. The company also holds technologies for CO2-free cement and industrial materials derived from its Gronne Bjerg anorthosite project in Greenland. This investment supports Greenland Mines’ North Atlantic Critical Metals Corridor strategy, which aims to link Greenland resources with allied downstream jurisdictions and industrial infrastructure.
“This transaction expands our reach into the midstream processing segment of the critical materials value chain,” the company stated. The deal is expected to close by June 30, subject to customary closing conditions, including acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.

Greenland Mines operates two divisions: Mining, focused on exploration and development of the Skaergaard Project in southeast Greenland and the Sarfartoq neodymium-praseodymium rare earths project in southwest Greenland; and Biotech, including Klotho’s KLTO-202 primary indication for ALS. The company’s strategy centers on building a multi-asset platform with exposure to rare earth magnet materials, precious metals, and selected midstream processing opportunities.

The investment in AnorTech reflects a broader trend of mining companies seeking to integrate downstream processing capabilities, particularly for critical minerals essential to clean energy technologies. By leveraging AnorTech’s sustainable alumina and cement technologies, Greenland Mines aims to reduce environmental impact while enhancing its position in the critical materials supply chain. The North Atlantic Critical Metals Corridor vision underscores the strategic importance of Greenland’s mineral resources in meeting global demand for rare earths and industrial materials.
