Mission Critical Metals Acquires Medvedi Potok Tin Project in Slovakia
Vancouver, British Columbia — February 27, 2026 — Leads & Copy — Mission Critical Metals Corp. has acquired the Medvedi Potok Tin Project, also known as the Bear Creek Tin Property, located in northern Slovakia.
The project was previously held by Military Metals Corp. (TSX: MILI), which in January 2026 transferred the asset to Hallgarten & Company Limited in exchange for a 1% royalty on future production, subject to a buyback right of CAD$210,000.
Hallgarten & Company Limited acquired the Medvedi Potok Tin Project on January 6, 2026. Subsequently, on January 13, 2026, Hallgarten transferred and assigned 100% of its interest in the Project to Mission Critical Metals Corp.
Previously, on January 8, 2026, Military Metals announced it had exercised its buyback right to retire a 1% net smelter royalty (“NSR”) covering its Slovakian portfolio, including the Medvedi Potok Tin Project. As a result, the Project was rendered royalty-free prior to its transfer to Hallgarten.
The Medvedi Potok Tin Project is considered prospective for tin mineralization within a historically active mining jurisdiction. Tin is classified as a critical mineral due to its essential role in electronics, semiconductors, renewable energy systems, and advanced manufacturing technologies.
Christopher Ecclestone, President of Mission Critical Metals Corp., stated that the acquisition represents a significant step forward in the company’s strategy to build a portfolio of high-quality critical metals assets in stable European jurisdictions. He added that with global demand for tin continuing to grow, particularly in the electronics and energy transition sectors, the company believes this project offers compelling long-term potential.
Mission Critical Metals Corp. intends to review all historical data related to the Project and develop a staged exploration and advancement plan in accordance with applicable Slovakian regulatory requirements.
The acquisition of the Project was negotiated at arm’s length. None of the vendors are non-arm’s length parties to the Company. The transaction does not constitute a fundamental change, reverse takeover, or change of business for the Company.
Mission Critical Metals Corp. is a British Columbia-based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of critical mineral projects in strategic jurisdictions. The Company’s objective is to build shareholder value through disciplined asset selection and responsible project development.
