MEGA Project - SK-1300 Report

A Strategic Asset for a New Industrial Era

"The MEGA Project represents a turning point for America's critical-mineral independence," said Anthony Paterson, President of Patriot Critical Minerals . "This is one of the most advanced and significant tungsten projects in the Western Hemisphere - and as we move toward Pre-Feasibility and production, we're proving that large-scale, U.S.-based projects can once again compete globally. But to secure that future, the government needs to move with the same urgency the market demands. If we want American metals for American industry, the time to act is now."

CEO Brodie Sutherland added, "With more than 85 % of U.S. tungsten currently imported, Patriot's Nevada asset offers a direct pathway to reshoring a metal vital for defense, aerospace, semiconductors, and clean-energy technologies."
