ARES Strategic Mining Inc.

@Reed_Mining We can agree to disagree!

I doubt the manufacturing claims. One Utah mine historically produced only met-spar. Acid-grade capacity is speculation. Engineers flee to Dubai as North American projects drown in litigation.

⛑️📋As we accelerate operations at America’s only permitted and operating fluorspar mine, more activity naturally brings more eyes on site, and that’s exactly how it should be. We’ve gone from early development to active mining and ore stockpiling, with the Lumps Plant now commissioning and the Flotation construction being accelerated. Along the way, our team on site has grown to roughly three-five times our earlier headcount. More people, more equipment, and more production mean more frequent MSHA inspections - and yes, more routine citations. This isn’t a red flag. 🚩 It’s a clear sign of progress. In every mine ramping up quickly, regulatory interactions increase as inspectors do their important job of overseeing expanding operations. We welcome that oversight. It helps us refine procedures, strengthen training, and keep safety standards high as we scale. The recent entries on the MSHA site reflect this normal phase of growth, and encouragingly for us mostly standard Section 104(a) citations that were addressed promptly. The two reported incidents were non-injury events during development work. Health and safety remains our top priority. We are committed to running a safe, responsible operation and continue working closely with MSHA as partners in this journey. We appreciate genuine interest in our progress. As we move toward first acidspar sales under our DoD contract, our focus stays on measurable milestones: more ore processed, plant performance, and delivering critical domestic supply. . Questions welcome, we’re happy to share the full picture. #ARSMF #LostSheepMine #MineSafety #CriticalMinerals #ProductionRamp

👷 A thoughtful Reddit post on #ARSMF has caught our eye, and our CEO James Walker agrees with the analysis on warrant overhang, IDIQ realities, OTC liquidity constraints, and the classic junior mining 'show me' phase. We’ve banged the drum hard about the DoD contract news and growing stockpile of fluorspar at the Lost Sheep Mine. Our Lumps plant construction is complete and is now going through rigorous electrical fitting and testing. But here's a clearer market picture that we’re not afraid to be transparent about: The 12.2 million warrants at ~US$0.40 create a well-documented supply wall: every time the price approaches that level, holders are incentivized to exercise and sell to lock in gains. This is a real mechanical ceiling, and it’s fair for investors to ask about dilution. Here’s why it’s not a major long-term concern: These warrants stem from a one-time past financing (not new or recurring issuance). Once exercised, that specific overhang disappears - it’s finite, not endless. Upon exercise, the company receives cash inflow at $0.40 per share (roughly $4.9 million in total), which directly funds plant commissioning and operations, strengthening the balance sheet without needing to raise more equity at lower prices. Relative to our current ~260 million shares outstanding, 12.2 million new shares represent only about 4.7% dilution if all are exercised. In the context of a junior miner moving into production and first revenue, this is modest and already largely priced into the current valuation. As broader selling pressure eases (with reduced war-premium volatility) and we deliver tangible production milestones + initial sales, natural buying interest should absorb this supply relatively quickly, turning the “wall” into a short-term speed bump rather than a permanent barrier. In short: this is a known, limited technical overhang from capital raises. The real value unlock comes from the plant coming online, first wet runs, and cash flow from acidspar sales, which will hopefully drive sustainable price appreciation well beyond the $0.40 level. We're heads-down, working hard on executing on plant ramp-up and first deliveries. What milestone are you watching most closely?

🚀 We've just launched our new "Technical Overview" page, diving into the rich geological history of the Spor Mountain range, home to the Lost Sheep Mine. In this comprehensive overview, we cover drill work discoveries and our expanding resource base from near-surface fluorspar, along with valuable by-products gallium and germanium. These prospects align with @aressmining approach: strategically and systematically mining hundreds of high-grade fluorspar pipes at the Lost Sheep Mine while advancing new targets and mine installations across the Spor Mountain range.

🚨 URGENT: As reported by @ZeroHedge, Washington reportedly has just TWO MONTHS of rare earth elements left in stockpiles - a dire warning for U.S. defense, tech, and clean energy security. This crisis underscores the vulnerability of our critical mineral supply chains, 100% import-dependent for key materials. At Ares Strategic Mining, we're stepping up as America's ONLY permitted and operating fluorspar mine (Lost Sheep, Utah). Fluorspar, a U.S. designated critical mineral, is vital for hydrofluoric acid production, aluminum/steel manufacturing, fluorochemicals, semiconductors, EVs, refrigerants, and defense applications. With no other domestic competition, Ares is the sole U.S. supplier building secure, onshored production, including a recent multi-year Pentagon contract for acid-grade fluorspar to bolster national stockpiles and resilience. #CriticalMinerals #Fluorspar #RareEarths #SupplyChainSecurity #Defense

Things are hotting up at the Lost Sheep Mine! Both the mine site and the processing facilities are a hive of activity. As our Lumps Plant nears completion, test runs are planned to commence as soon as electrical works are finalized. In the meantime our Fluorspar stockpile continues to grow, ready for processing. We’re often asked, ‘Why not bag it and sell it now?’ The simple answer is that processed lumps can be sold at a significantly higher price than raw material, and whilst we are keen to get to revenue quickly, it has always been our strategy to maximise the value of our product through manufacturing. The Lumps Plant will have an enormous capacity, and we will be able to quickly process the stockpile as soon as it is operational. Ares Strategic Mining is just that - a strategic company with strategic goals that we are achieving, one by one. And we're not stopping or slowing down any time soon! CEO @James Walker visited the site last week to check-in on progress, and plan important details related to the expedited construction of the Flotation Plant. Whilst there he took the attached photos which demonstrate how quickly progress is now being made! #Fluorspar #Mining #CriticalMinerals #ARES #Manufacturing #USMining #SupplyChains #IndustrialMaterials #MineralIndependence #MiningMomentum #2026Outlook
