About Namibia Critical Metals Inc.

Namibia Critical is developing the Tier 1 heavy rare earth project Lofdal, a globally significant deposit of the heavy rare earth metals dysprosium and terbium. Demand for these critical metals used in permanent magnets for electric vehicles, wind turbines and other electronics is driven by innovations linked to energy and technology transformations. The geopolitical risks associated with sourcing many of these metals has become a repeated concern for manufacturers and end-users. Namibia is a proven and stable mining jurisdiction.
