Blackboxstocks (NASDAQ: BLBX) announced that its merger target REalloys has acquired PMT Critical Metals Inc. through a share exchange representing 14% of REalloys outstanding stock. The acquisition, completed March 31, 2025, includes PMT's Ohio-based facility that produces rare earth metals and magnet materials for the US Defense Logistics Agency and Department of Energy.
The deal encompasses production equipment, intellectual property, R&D, existing contracts, and clients. The facility specializes in metallization of rare earth oxides and production of high-performance neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) magnet materials. This acquisition follows REalloys' May 2024 purchase of Strategic Metals Development, which owns the Hoidas Lake Rare Earth Element Project in Saskatchewan, containing 2,153,000 metric tonnes of Total Rare Earth Oxides at 1.906%.
The strategic move strengthens North America's integrated rare earth mine-to-magnet supply chain, particularly significant given China's recent tariffs and export restrictions on rare earth elements and NdFeB magnets.
Blackboxstocks Inc. (NASDAQ: BLBX) has announced a definitive merger agreement to acquire REalloys Inc., a rare earth elements producer, in a transformative deal valued at $400 million.
