American Marconi Wireless News - M2i Global, Inc. Comments on Critical Minerals Aspects in Executive Order "Unleashing American Energy"

RENO, NV / ACCESS Newswire / January 27, 2025 / M2i Global, Inc. ("M2i," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us") (OTCQB:MTWO), a company specializing in the development and execution of a complete global value supply chain for critical minerals, is pleased to provide the following comments on the Executive Order "Unleashing American Energy" signed by U.S. President Donald Trump on January 20, 2025.

M2i Global applauds the swift implementation of President Trump's Executive Order, which accelerates M2i's efforts to maximize Joint Venture arrangements and ramp up its pipeline of critical mineral partnerships across the U.S. defense sector. The Company is already collaborating closely with federal facilities and lands to develop a Strategic Mineral Reserve (SMR), aligning with the mandate to enhance domestic production and bolster national resilience.

M2i's ecosystem of partners provides access to turnkey solutions, facilitating expanded business opportunities, securing offtake agreements, influencing strategic government policy, engaging with aligned NGOs, and trusted laboratories.

Major General (Ret) Alberto Rosende, Chief Executive Officer of M2i, highlighted M2i's ongoing efforts: "This wide-ranging policy move, aimed at solidifying the U.S. energy landscape, aligns with M2i's mission. Our vision to secure reliable access to critical minerals for the U.S. and its allies is strongly validated by this Executive Order. Through our partnerships with federal and state governments, universities, and specialized mining companies, we are enabling the U.S. to lead in critical minerals processing. The focus on strengthening the U.S. mineral supply chain aligns with our strategy of promoting economic self-sufficiency and national security through domestic processing."

Rosende, continued, "M2i's robust international business model ensures minerals are ethically sourced, adheres to global environmental and labor standards, and works exclusively with authorized trading countries, aligning with President Trump's vision. This framework is further strengthened by our collaboration with America's allies, including Australia, which leverages world-first technologies to create a strategic reserve for the U.S. defense sector."

M2i's dedication to ethical practices is further bolstered by its partnership with Not For Sale, a global leader in combating forced labor. Together, they ensure the Company's ecosystem prioritizes ethical sourcing practices, advancing the Executive Order's goal to protect human rights and national security. This collaboration also aligns with the Executive Order's directive for the Department of Homeland Security to assess and address the inflow of minerals linked to forced labor, reinforcing M2i's commitment to ethical and sustainable supply chains.

Doug Cole, Executive Chairman of M2i Global, added: "The Strategic Mineral Reserve we are developing represents a transformative step toward securing our nation's energy independence and resilience. By building a model that prioritizes environmental stewardship and ethical labor practices, we are creating a benchmark for global minerals processing."

Background

America is blessed with an abundance of energy and natural resources that have historically powered our Nation's economic prosperity. In recent years, increasing restrictive and burdensome regulations have impeded the development of these resources, limited the generation of reliable and affordable electricity, reduced job creation, and inflicted high energy costs upon our citizens. These high energy costs devastate American consumers by driving up the cost of transportation, heating, utilities, farming, and manufacturing, while weakening our national security.

It is thus in the national interest to unleash America's affordable and reliable energy and natural resources. This will restore American prosperity -- including for those men and women who have been forgotten by our economy in recent years. It will also rebuild our Nation's economic and military security, which will deliver peace through strength.

Key actions in the Order related to critical minerals include:

Restoring America's Mineral Dominance. (a) The Secretary of the Interior, Secretary of Agriculture, Administrator of the EPA, Chairman of CEQ, and the heads of any other relevant agencies, as appropriate, shall identify all agency actions that impose undue burdens on the domestic mining and processing of non-fuel minerals and undertake steps to revise or rescind such actions.

The Secretary of the Interior shall instruct the Director of the U.S. Geological Survey to consider updating the Survey's list of critical minerals, including for the potential of including uranium.

The Secretary of the Interior shall prioritize efforts to accelerate the ongoing, detailed geologic mapping of the United States, with a focus on locating previously unknown deposits of critical minerals.

The Secretary of Energy shall ensure that critical mineral projects, including the processing of critical minerals, receive consideration for Federal support, contingent on the availability of appropriated funds.

The United States Trade Representative shall assess whether exploitative practices and state-assisted mineral projects abroad are unlawful or unduly burden or restrict United States commerce.

The Secretary of Commerce shall assess the national security implications of the Nation's mineral reliance and the potential for trade action.

The Secretary of Homeland Security shall assess the quantity and inflow of minerals that are likely the product of forced labor into the United States and whether such inflows pose a threat to national security and, within 90 days of the date of this order, shall provide this assessment to the Director of the NEC.

The Secretary of Defense shall consider the needs of the United States in supplying and maintaining the National Defense Stockpile, review the legal authorities and obligations in managing the National Defense Stockpile, and take all appropriate steps to ensure that the National Defense Stockpile will provide a robust supply of critical minerals in event of future shortfall.

Within 60 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of State, Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of Labor, the United States Trade Representative, and the heads of any other relevant agencies, shall submit a report to the Assistant to the President for Economic Policy that includes policy recommendations to enhance the competitiveness of American mining and refining companies in other mineral-wealthy nations.

The Secretary of State shall consider opportunities to advance the mining and processing of minerals within the United States through the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue.

While the Order encompasses a broad spectrum of energy initiatives, it specifically prioritizes the domestic production and processing of critical minerals, including rare earth elements. If successfully executed, this strategy could drive job creation, enhance supply chain resilience, and reduce reliance on adversarial states.
