Mark LaVerghetta, Vice President of Corporate Finance and Communication of American Resources Corporation commented, "We are excited that Byron has agreed to join our team to help expand our footprint into the Africa continent. Byron has spent the last 6-plus months in South Africa during his sabbatical with the City University of New York and has some tremendous contacts and relationships throughout Africa. He has also seen firsthand the opportunity that is present to bring high-value technologies to the African continent to produce highly-refined critical minerals for the electrified economy while also improving the quality of life for the local population. Collectively we believe that our technology could enable various African communities to leap forward and benefit from the ability to refine materials within Africa rather than by only extracting the resource and exporting the value to other countries such as China and Russia. Our modular, low-cost and environmentally-safe refining methods enable African countries to retain that value while also reducing the cost of critical minerals for the growth of the electrification industry." Dr. Price will work with the ReElement team to analyze opportunities throughout Africa to produce high-purity critical minerals for the local economy as well as the United State market. As part of the due diligence process, Byron will help verify regions within the continent that have the appropriate quality standards of mining and extraction operations, alongside attractive and economically-viable resources and deposits in order to maximize the value of ReElement Technologies' electrolysis and chromatographic separation and purification technology for critical mineral refining. As opportunities to partner with companies in Africa become clear, ReElement Technologies anticipates selectively expanding its resources and team to ensure the Company is properly capitalizing on these opportunities. Dr. Price added, "It's a very exciting time to be joining the ReElement Technologies team. Their revolutionary critical minerals refining technology is exactly what certain resource-rich regions in Africa need to support the growth of mining and processing of these highly sought-after resources. The flexible, low cost and environmentally-sensitive nature will enable the technology to be efficiently implemented and utilized while also presenting a meaningful socio-economic benefit for certain African communities."

Before beginning his academic career, Byron served in the United States Army as Deputy Commander, Executive Officer and Training Officer at Fort Sill in a period that covered the Desert Storm operation and he honorably separated in 1991 and achieved the rank of Captain.
