Greenland 2.0: Towards The Liberation of A Danish Socialist Colony

An excerpt from, “Factbox: Greenland’s rich but largely untapped mineral resources” Mining.com, January 13, 2025:

A 2023 survey showed that 25 of 34 minerals deemed “critical raw materials” by the European Commission were found in Greenland.

. . .

Three of Greenland’s biggest deposits are located in the southern Gardar province.

Companies seeking to develop rare earth mines are Critical Metals Corp, which bought the Tanbreez deposit, Energy Transition Minerals, whose Kuannersuit project is stalled amid legal disputes, and Neo Performance Materials.

An excerpt from, “Greenland Resources Update on Strategic EU Equity Investment” By Greenland Resources, December 3, 2025:

The EU is the second largest molybdenum user worldwide, (around 122 million pounds of molybdenum per year, 19% of the global demand according to IMOA), has large processing capacity, produces the best specialty steel products worldwide but has no molybdenum extraction. Green energy technologies, steel and defence are the key drivers for market growth. When molybdenum is added to steel and cast iron, it enhances strength, hardenability, weldability, toughness, temperature strength, and corrosion resistance. To a greater degree, the EU steel dependent industries like automotive, construction, and engineering, represent around 18% of EU GDP. Greenland Resources strategically located Malmbjerg project has the potential to supply in and for the EU approximately 25% of the EU demand of environmentally friendly high-quality primary molybdenum from a responsible EU Associate country for decades to come, as well as 100% of EU defence molybdenum consumption. More than 80% of the metallic materials (including carbon and stainless steels) to be used for defence applications require molybdenum alloying. The primary molybdenum in the Malmbjerg project is ideal for EU defence and high-performance steel applications because of low deleterious elements and long-term security supply. The EU expects to increase defense expenditures from current 1.5% to around 5% of GDP. Primary molybdenum is only produced in China (87%) and the USA (13%), China imposed export controls on molybdenum and is now a net importer. Molybdenum is categorized as a critical and/or strategic mineral across the top five defence nations in the world: U.S., China, Russia, India, and South Korea.

The EU uses around 145,000 tonnes of magnesium per year (15% of the global demand) but has no treatment facilities nor extraction. Electric vehicle production and sustainable manufacturing practices are key drivers for market growth. Magnesium is a light metal with a high strength-to-weight ratio, primarily utilized in the form of magnesium metal or magnesium compounds such as caustic-calcined magnesia, magnesium chloride, hydroxide and sulfates. Magnesium metal is primarily used as casting alloy in automotive and aerospace industries (64%), aluminum-base alloys for packaging and transportation (18%), and in the desulfurization of iron and steel (4%). Smelter production of magnesium metal in 2024 was 1 million metric tonnes, 85% coming from seawater, while smelter capacity worldwide is double. Also, approximately 75% of magnesium compounds serve industrial purposes including fertilizers, cattle feed, Epsom salts, heat-resistant bricks, de-icing etc. (USGS 2024). China produces 89% of the world’s magnesium and Europe sources 97% of its magnesium from China (EC, 2023).
