American Marconi Wireless News - ReElement Technologies Joins Minerals Integrity & Resilience Alliance Convened by CIPE

FISHERS, IN / ACCESS Newswire / May 12, 2026 / American Resources Corporation (NASDAQ:AREC) ("American Resources"), through its affiliated minority holding in ReElement Technologies Corporation ("ReElement"), a leading provider of high-performance refining capacity for rare earth elements and critical minerals, today announced that ReElement has joined the Minerals Integrity & Resilience Alliance ("MIRA"), a collaborative initiative convened by the Center for International Private Enterprise ("CIPE").

ReElement's participation in MIRA reflects the Company's commitment to supporting secure, transparent, and resilient critical mineral supply chains across the United States, allied markets, and strategic international regions. MIRA is designed to bring together stakeholders across the critical minerals supply chain to examine evolving risks and identify practical priorities that strengthen integrity, transparency, trust and resilience across the sector.

"ReElement is committed to helping build a more secure, transparent, and resilient critical minerals ecosystem across the United States and key growth markets in allied nations. Joining MIRA is important because it connects us with a serious, action-oriented group focused on the governance, trust, and practical collaboration needed to strengthen critical mineral and rare earths supply chains," said Ben Kincaid, Chief Executive Officer of ReElement Technologies Africa.

Through its involvement in MIRA, ReElement will engage with stakeholders focused on responsible ownership, supply chain integrity, transparency, and investment readiness in the critical minerals and rare earths sectors. ReElement believes these priorities are increasingly important as governments, manufacturers, and investors work to diversify supply chains and establish dependable new sources of refined critical materials outside of legacy chokepoints.

For ReElement, participation in MIRA complements the Company's broader refining-first strategy and its focus on developing scalable, commercially viable, and environmentally responsible refining solutions for global markets.

Kincaid added, "As global demand for rare earths and other critical minerals grows, resilient supply chains must be built on integrity, accountability, and trusted collaboration. We believe participation in MIRA supports that objective and aligns with ReElement's mission to help develop responsible, commercially viable refining solutions for global markets."
