Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

 

On November 3, 2025, American Resources Corporation (or the “Company”) issued a press releasing announcing its holding company, ReElement Technologies Corporation, a leading U.S. innovator in rare earth element (REE) and critical mineral refining, of which the Company holds approximately 19% of the current outstanding common shares, announced a joint partnership of $1.4 billion with the U.S Department of War’s Office of Strategic Capital (OSC). The funding supports the expansion of ReElement’s partnership with Vulcan Elements (“Vulcan”) to scale a 100% vertically integrated, domestic rare earth magnet supply chain. The OSC’s commitment includes two separate loans, matched by private capital: $80 million to ReElement Technologies and $620 to Vulcan Elements. These loans will directly support the production of advanced rare earth element separation, metallization, and magnet manufacturing capabilities in the United States. With the increased manufacturing and processing capabilities enabled by OSC’s loans, Vulcan Elements and ReElement will collectively scale to 10,000 metric tonnes of NdFeB magnet production capability, thereby significantly reducing the U.S. NdFeB magnet supply chain gap. In conjunction with the loan commitment, the U.S. Department of War will receive warrants in ReElement Technologies Corporation.
