Article content Mr. Fox Brings Over 25 Years of U.S.-Based Operational Leadership to Almonty's Global Team Article content TORONTO — Almonty Industries Inc. (' Almonty ' or the ' Company ') (NASDAQ: ALM) (TSX: AII) (ASX: AII) (Frankfurt: ALI1), a leading global producer of tungsten critical to the U.S. defense and technology sectors, today announced the appointment of Brian Fox, CPA as Chief Financial Officer, succeeding Mark Gelmon, CPA,CA, effective August 25, 2025. Article content Mr. Fox most recently served as Chief Financial & Operating Officer at CBIZ Marks Paneth, a top-tier U.S. accounting and advisory firm, where he played a key role in strategic growth initiatives and post-merger integration. His prior experience includes leadership roles at Loureiro Engineering and United Subcontractors, as well as senior audit work at Arthur Andersen. He holds a Master's degree in Management from Harvard University and a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from the University of Connecticut. Article content Mr. Gelmon, who joined Almonty in 2015 through its acquisition of Woulfe Mining Corp. (former owner of the Sangdong Mine Project) and became CFO in 2017, will remain involved with the Company as a financial consultant. The Company thanks Mr. Gelmon for his unwavering dedication and years of service. Article content Lewis Black, Chief Executive Officer of Almonty, commented: 'As Almonty advances its U.S. redomiciling strategy following our successful US$90 million public offering and Nasdaq listing, the appointment of a U.S.-based executive with deep financial and operational acumen was a deliberate and strategic move. Brian brings exactly the type of disciplined execution and institutional-grade financial leadership we need as we scale operations and align with U.S. capital markets. His track record in guiding complex organizations through growth and transformation will prove invaluable. We thank Mark for his years of dedication and are thrilled to welcome Brian to the team.' Article content About Almonty Article content Almonty (NASDAQ: ALM) (TSX: AII) (ASX: AII) (Frankfurt: ALI1) is a leading supplier of conflict-free tungsten – a strategic metal critical to the defense and advanced technology sectors. As geopolitical tensions heighten, tungsten has become essential for armor, munitions, and electronics manufacturing. Almonty's flagship Sangdong Mine in South Korea, historically one of the world's largest and highest-grade tungsten deposits, is expected to supply over 80% of global non-China tungsten production upon reaching full capacity, directly addressing critical supply vulnerabilities highlighted by recent U.S. defense procurement bans and export restrictions by China. With established operations in Portugal and additional projects in Spain, Almonty is strategically aligned to meet rapidly rising demand from Western allies committed to supply-chain security and defense readiness.
