Atlas Critical Minerals Consolidates 11-Kilometer Graphite Corridor in Brazil; Reports Record 19.4% Graphitic Carbon ResultsMarch 10, 2026 7:30 AM
NewsfileBelo Horizonte, Brazil--(Newsfile Corp. - March 10, 2026) - Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation (NASDAQ: ATCX) ("Atlas Critical Minerals" or "Company"), a company focused on critical minerals for energy, technology, and defense applications, announces the acquisition of an additional mineral right that links its two existing graphite areas tenements in northeastern Minas Gerais, Brazil. The combined three mineral rights now comprise the Company's Graphite Project, totaling approximately 2,822 hectares - an increase of approximately 124% - and establish a continuous mineralized corridor exceeding 11 kilometers (~7 miles). Key HighlightsRecord High-Grade Results: Systematic chip sampling returned a peak result of 19.4% graphitic carbon (Cgraph), surpassing the Company's prior best of 15.4% Cgraph and ranking among the highest reported for natural flake graphite projects globally.Consistent Mineralization: Multiple additional samples returned consistently high grades across all three tenements, including 15.49%, 15.41%, 13.82%, 13.22%, 12.23%, 11.68%, and 10.51% Cgraph, supporting strong deposit continuity and the potential for extensive mineralized bodies.Acquisition More Than Doubles Project Area: The newly acquired mineral right connects the Company's two existing tenements, increasing total project area by approximately 124% to 2,822 hectares and creating a continuous 11-kilometer mineralized corridor.Geophysics Confirm Scale at Depth: Preliminary resistivity surveys at Area 1 corroborate graphite mineralization at depth, with low-resistivity anomalies demonstrating lateral continuity of ~230 meters and extending to depths of up to ~215 meters.Demonstrated Premium Specifications: Graphite concentrate from the Project was previously purified at an independent U.S. laboratory to 99.9995% carbon purity, qualifying the material for nuclear-reactor applications-the industry's most stringent standard, exceeding battery-grade requirements.Rapidly Growing Market: According to MarketsandMarkets, the global graphite market is projected to reach USD 36.4 billion by 2030, growing at a 15.1% CAGR, driven by surging EV battery and energy storage demand. Benchmark Mineral Intelligence estimates that 97 new graphite mines will be needed by 2035 to meet projected demand.Figure 1 - Graphite Project map showing the three mineral rights (Areas 1-3), mineralized trends, and representative chip sample results up to 19.4% Cgraph.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:
https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/6728/287765_d97900c1049abaad_002full.jpgGraphite is a must-have anode material in the lithium-ion batteries that power electric vehicles. In most EV battery chemistries-including LFP, NMC, and NCA-the anode is predominantly graphite, with a typical EV containing tens of kilograms of this critical mineral. High-grade natural graphite with suitable flake size and purity can be upgraded to active anode material, offering a strategic pathway to meet the rapidly growing global demand for graphite supply. Atlas believes the Project's high in-situ grades and demonstrated purification performance position its graphite as a strong contender for this market."The expansion of our 100%-owned Graphite Project, together with the exceptional exploration results reported to date, supports our view of the asset's quality and scale, especially in light of the fact that graphite is a key critical mineral," stated Marc Fogassa, Chairman and CEO of Atlas Critical Minerals. "A peak sample of 19.4% Cg, alongside the fact that the vast majority of prior samples exceed 11% Cg, indicates the presence of high-grade mineralization across multiple areas of the project's 11-kilometer graphite corridor. When considered with geophysical data that suggest mineralization may extend beyond 200 meters depth, and our previously reported ability to purify concentrate to nuclear-grade specifications - the pinnacle of global quality standard - we see a clear rationale to accelerate the development of our Graphite Project."Next StepsConsistent with the SGS-authored Technical Report Summary on the Graphite Project, Atlas Critical Minerals plans to advance a comprehensive exploration program across the expanded project area, including:Ground magnetometry and aerophotogrammetryLiDAR topographic surveyingHigh-resolution geological mapping with additional samplingFollow-up diamond core drilling to advance toward initial resource definitionAbout Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation

This is all a lie. Fogassa and company never intended to develop this, or Apollo either for that mater. The bottom line is Fogassa made a lot of money
with this scheme and investors lost. There is no other way to say it. I wish it was, but none that I can see.

No updates, no revenue, nothing but a few words at the end of a paragraph. That Friday AH 10Q did just what it was designed to do, shake out a ton of shares of ATLAS from fearful shareholders only to be bought back on the cheap by those in the know. Now as far as Jupiter goes, this is about as in your face as it gets. Three and a half months of production (supposedly) and not ONE QUARTZ BLOCK SOLD, plus not even a simple update. This was not a mistake, this was orchestrated. I highly doubt there is hardly anybody at the Quarry even. The arrogance of this stuns me, even for Fogassa..

:) :) :)

Thumbs Up! JUPGF

Will be interesting to see what our first quarter of revenue will be. The 10Q should be out in 4 or 5 weeks. )

We have some action going on today. :)

at least we are seeing a little volume again.

That's good news for JUPGF. This should show good on our next earnings statement.

in their new presentation under JG they say they are now selling Quartz to an Italian buyer for export. You would think they would show it a lot more prominently than that, but that is what it says.

Are you saying JUPGF is generating revenue?

Quartz is now being sold to an Italian buyer for export! :)

Would love to hear an update on how the start of Quartz operation is coming along.

This is interesting, seems like the15K buy comes up out of nowhere then all of a sudden it will sit more or less untraded for several days then pick back up.

Another day of someone buying up all the shares @ 1.00. Humm???
JUPGF

I do not know either. The thing that makes me wonder is why the company has been mostly quite about this whole operation opening up. I agree, the15,000 coming again is odd. I really don't know what will happen here but I do know this, someday something will.

What is up with the 15,000 @1.00? First time it showed up and was taken out all at once, the whole 15,000. After the 15,000 was up for a week @1.00, all 15,000 went off @ 0.99. Today that 15,000 is again. Why 15,000? I'm just wondering what is going on. JUPGF

I know!!! JUPGF

FINALLY! Been a long time coming. :) :) :)

No, not at all. I am sure he has not gone anywhere, probably Posting here and the under a different Handle on Stocktwits. He is not a Mod anymore last I looked, in fact there are no Mods anymore on the Atlas board I don't think.

Agree, it certainly appears so.

Have you heard from Boat lately? Maybe it's him? I don't think so, but maybe? JUPGF

Someone or group is buying a lot of share between .90 and 1.10. Humm? JUPGF

See that 15,000 on ask,NOT ANYMORE. LOL Someone just took it out in one swoop.

JUPGF

Yea, that came out yesterday in the AM. I was very surprised that there were no Trades the entire day. (at least that I saw). I wish they would have done a formal PR. not all that big on just Tweets.

JUPGF tweeted about the quartzite mining starting operations. Now we know why the stock spiked. Should start moving as more information hits.

New all time high for volume. Don't know what is going on, but I am holding and seeing this through. JUPGF

Either way, you analysis works for the share holders. JUPGF

Check out the ownership structure in the pdf on their web site. I think we are pretty much owned by four entities with Fogassa and BMIX alone having over 60%. The total for them all is about 85% (as I recall) I will check again but last I looked our OS was just over 8M. I think they say the float now is about 2,5M but I think realistically it is much lower than that. I think they start mining this has forward split written all over it or they apply for an up list.

We're these share not the preferred shares of BMIX? These are the shares of the preferred share holders. I don't think he is going to let his preferred share holders goto nothing. Does that make any sense? JUPGF

Agree, something is going on. I think this will continue until we find out one way or another what Fogassa is going to do regarding the Quartz mining operation. Lets face it, we are not a mining company. That said, with Gold over 2,000 an ounce and the Quartz mining being a relatively simple operation (mining wise) you would have to think this has more than just a passing interest to some deep pockets. The Quartz alone is worth a boat load.

Been some nice buys today. Last buy for 2000 @ 1.25. Something is going on. JUPGF

Holding and guessing... JUPGF

I don't have level 2 but I am assuming this is being accumulated. The volume is up every day now. Wonder why? :).

Not a peep today. Humm? JUPGF

I am with you teme. This is slowly but surely being accumulated it seems! :)

Again, the biggest volume day in JUPGF history. I'm going with volume before the storm.

Another high volume day. Humm? Someone selling or buying ? JUPGF

Yea, largest I ever remember seeing. I think we had a 15K day once several months back as I recall. I guess the good news is we are starting to get some volume about every day now. We can only hope they finally do something with it and not keep kicking the can down the road. Honestly I am not sure how this will play out because at the end of the day we are not a mining company.

I think that is the largest one day volume I have seen on JUPGF.

Yes it was ! :)

Another nice day in JUPGF land.

JG does not own any Atlas, Atlas owns ~28% of JG and Fogassa and company (just four people) own about 86% of that,last I looked. This has probably changed some by now so I could be wrong. I will have to check again.
