ABOUT ARES
ARES Strategic Mining Inc. owns the only permitted fluorspar mine in the US and is focused on returning fluorspar manufacturing to North America.
OUR VISION:
To be the leading fluorspar mining company in North America.
OUR MISSION:
Return fluorspar manufacturing to North America.
In 2023, Fluorspar remains the only non-metallic Critical Mineral 100% imported into the US, with the majority of fluorspar imported from Mexico. The US fluorspar supply chain is so strained, that the US Government deems the mineral as "critical to U.S. national security and the economy".
