Guardian Metal Resources plc
('Guardian Metal' or the 'Company')
Acquisition of Lincoln Estates & Water Rights
Guardian Metal Resources plc (NYSE.A: GMTL, LON: GMET, OTCQB:
GMTLF), a strategic mineral exploration company focused on tungsten
in Nevada, USA, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Lincoln
Estates Group LLC ("Lincoln Estates") which includes 841 acres of
real property as well as 2,540 acre-feet of annual water rights.
Lincoln Estates is located less than 10 miles from the Company's
Tempiute Tungsten Project ("Tempiute" or the "Project"), located in
south-central Nevada less than 250 miles (402 km) southeast of the
Company's Pilot Mountain Tungsten Project. Tempiute, formerly known
as the Emerson Tungsten Mine, is a significant past producing
tungsten mine, which was originally discovered in 1916 and most
recently operated during the 1980s.
Securing water and land rights marks an important milestone for the
Project as its various workstreams advance. Combined with
Tempiute's existing infrastructure, this acquisition enhances the
Project's development potential and advance Guardian Metal's goal
of building a resilient U.S. domestic tungsten supply chain,
reducing reliance on foreign sources while reinforcing economic and
defense security.
Acquisition Highlights:
|
•
|
2,540 acre-feet per annum of water rights across three permits
currently banked with the Lincoln County Water
District.
|
|
•
|
Approximately 841 acres of real property rights that are zoned for
mixed use, commercial, industrial, and single family.
|
|
•
|
Direct access off Highway 375, the same access highway for
Tempiute.
|
|
•
|
Guardian Metal retains the right to assign and/or transfer the
beneficial interest in the water rights for use within the service
area, which includes Tempiute.
|
|
•
|
The acquisition of Lincoln Estates represents a key derisking
milestone as the Company continues to advance Tempiute across
multiple active workstreams.
|
Oliver Friesen, CEO of Guardian Metal,
commented:
"We believe securing these water and property rights materially
de-risks and supports the accelerated advancement of the Tempiute
Tungsten Project. These rights, together with the substantial
infrastructure remaining from Tempiute's last period of operation
in the 1980s, further strengthen the Project's foundation for
redevelopment.
Our on-site team continues to make meaningful progress across
multiple workstreams, and this acquisition secures a range of
strategic opportunities that will facilitate the next stages of
project exploration and development. We look forward to providing
further updates as these workstreams advance, including ongoing
resource-focused drilling."
Commercial Terms:
The total purchase price for 100% ownership of Lincoln Estates is
US$1.3 million, payable in cash, completed through Golden Metal
Resources, LLC, one of the Company's wholly-owned U.S.
subsidiaries.

About Guardian Metal
Resources
Guardian Metal Resources PLC (NYSE.A: GMTL, LON:GMET, OTCQB:GMTLF)
is a strategic mineral exploration company driving the revival of
U.S. mined tungsten production and strengthening America's defense
metal independence. The Company is advancing two
co-flagship tungsten projects, Pilot Mountain, one of the largest
undeveloped tungsten deposits in the U.S. and Tempiute,
formerly America's largest producing tungsten operation,
both located in Nevada, one of the top-rated
mining jurisdictions in the United
States.
In July 2025, the U.S. Department of War (DoW) under Title III of
the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended, invested
US$6.2M in Golden Metal Resources (USA) LLC,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guardian Metal Resources
PLC, to support the Pilot Mountain PFS. The Company completed a
U.S. listing on the NYSE American on March 20,
2026.
Tungsten is a strategic metal critical to the defense, energy
transition, technology, and industrial sectors. In the context of
shifting geopolitical dynamics and tightening Chinese export
restrictions, Guardian Metal is well positioned to play a leading
role in re-establishing a secure, domestically mined U.S. supply
chain for this vital defense metal.
