Four High-Profile Nominees Brought in to Strengthen Allied's Board

The four incoming nominees collectively bring backgrounds spanning military intelligence, mining operations, corporate finance, and public-company governance. Major General (Ret.) James A. "Spider" Marks is a former Commanding General of the U.S. Army Intelligence Center and currently serves on the board of Allied Critical Metals USA Inc. Rick LaBelle is a mining executive with more than four decades of sector experience, including prior CEO roles at Atlas Salt Inc. and Dumas Mining. David Danziger is a Senior Advisor to MNP LLP with extensive public markets experience, and António Salvador served as Managing Director of Somincor, S.A., operator of the Neves-Corvo mine in Portugal under Lundin Mining.

Board Renewal Timed to Borralha and Vila Verde Project Advancement

Allied's CEO Roy Bonnell stated in the release that the proposed additions "reflect Allied's continued growth and the increasing strategic importance of our tungsten assets." The board renewal coincides with the company's stated objective of becoming a supplier of tungsten to Western markets through its 100%-owned Borralha and Vila Verde projects in northern Portugal. Tungsten is classified as a critical mineral by the United States, the European Union, and NATO, a designation the company highlights as central to its strategic positioning in defence and advanced technology supply chains.

Two Incumbent Directors to Step Down Following the October Meeting

Current directors Sean O'Neill and Andrew Lee will not stand for re-election at the October 22 meeting. Both will remain in their board roles until the meeting concludes. The release acknowledges their contributions, with CEO Bonnell crediting them with helping "position the Company to reach this important stage." The proposed seven-member slate, if elected in full, would represent a meaningfully reconstituted board for Allied. The company made the full circular publicly available on its corporate website.
