BLUE MOON METALS NUSSIR COPPER PROJECT RECEIVES SPECIAL
STRATEGIC PROJECT STATUS FROM THE EUROPEAN UNION
TORONTO, Ontario – June 5th, 2025 – Blue Moon Metals Inc. (“Blue Moon” or the “Company”) (TSXV: MOON; OTCQX:
BMOOF), is pleased to announce on June 4, 2025, the European Union (“ EU”) Commission designated Blue Moon’s
Nussir Project, located in Northern Norway, as a Strategic Critical Raw Material Project. Acting under the provisions of
the 2023 EU Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA), the commission added a total of 13 projects outside of the block to its
Strategic projects list. The CRMA seeks to diversify the supply of critical minerals and reduce dependence on China.
Nussir is the first project located in Norway to receive this designation and will benefit from coordinated support by
the EU Commission, better access to public and private financing through various funding programs, and political
support for the advancement of the project, among other benefits. The selection process included technical,
environmental, and social reviews by independent experts to assess compliance with CRMA’s stipulations. Of the 13
global projects added, only the Nussir Project is a primary copper project.
Christian Kargl-Simard, CEO of Blue Moon states; “Being defined as a Critical Raw Material Act Strategic Project is yet
another milestone for Nussir and a strong endorsement of the work done to date. This inclusion will open up new
opportunities for the Company. We look forward to working together with the EU Commission and our stakeholders to
maximize the local and regional benefits of the project, to support Europe’s self-relance for critical mineral supply, and
to significantly contribute to the green energy transition in the current geopolitically complex backdrop. We look
forward to providing a clean copper supply to Europe for decades to come, especially with one of the cleanest copper
concentrates in the world, powered solely from renewable energy sources.”
