Critical Metals Corp. (CRML) stock is rising in Tuesday's premarket as the company strengthened control of its flagship Tanbreez project in Greenland and installed new leadership to guide its next phase of development.  

On Monday, Critical Metals said that Thomas “TYT” Mogensen has been appointed chief executive officer of Tanbreez Mining A/S to oversee the project’s advancement.

Leadership Change In CRML Greenland Operations

Mogensen will oversee the subsidiary at a time when the project transitions from permitting and ownership consolidation to operational buildout.

Mogensen brings more than 20 years of experience across finance, infrastructure, and resource development in Greenland and the broader Nordic region. His career includes senior leadership roles, including as managing director of Nalik Ventures, where he led a major restructuring that turned the organization from a loss to a profit.

Critical Metals’ stock traded over 3% higher in Tuesday’s premarket. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the stock remained in ‘extremely bullish’ territory with the message volume seeing a 411% surge over a period of 24 hours. 

Critical Metals’ Ownership Consolidation

On Friday, Greenland’s government approved the transfer of the remaining ownership interest in the Tanbreez Mining project, increasing Critical Metals’ holding to 92.5% and solidifying its control over one of the world’s largest undeveloped heavy rare earth deposits. 

The Tanbreez project is viewed as an important asset in the global race for heavy rare earth elements used in electric vehicles, defense systems, and advanced electronics. 

Unlike many Arctic projects constrained by seasonal access, Tanbreez benefits from year-round deep-water fjord logistics, giving it a structural advantage in global supply chain planning. 

On Monday, the company’s Chairman, Tony Sage, said the company is facing logistical challenges tied to global geopolitical conditions as it progresses toward launching its Greenland pilot plant. However, he reaffirmed CRML’s commitment to begin operations in the second quarter of 2026. 

The U.S. government under President Trump has been placing greater emphasis on building alternative supply chains, with Tanbreez expected to become a key source of heavy rare earths. 

CRML stock has gained 72% year-to-date.
