Item 8.01 Other Events. As previously disclosed American Clean Resources Group, Inc. ("the Company" or "ACRG") has entered into an agreement to acquire the SMS Group (consisting of Sustainable Metal Solutions, LLC and its subsidiaries), owner of the prominent Cross and Caribou mines. As part of our due diligence and commitment to transparency with our shareholders, we have conducted an exhaustive assessment of the Consolidated Caribou Project and its associated assets. The SK-1300 Mineral Assessment for the year ended December 31, 2022 for the consolidated Caribou Project was completed on June 1, 2024. Although the Company is not yet subject to the reporting requirements under Regulation S-K Subpart 1300, the Company deems it essential to disclose any discussions or actions that might influence the Company's operational and financial trajectory. The potential merger with the SMS Group signifies a transformative phase for ACRG, leveraging the knowledge and experience of the management of SMS in sustainable mining practices and the valuable assets the SMS Group possesses, particularly the Cross and Caribou mine. The acquisition of the SMS Group aligns with ACRG's mission to lead in the realm of clean and sustainable resource solutions. Collaborating with SMS presents an opportunity to amalgamate the expertise of both companies, resulting in enhanced operational efficiencies and sustainable extraction methodologies. The Cross and Caribou mine have a rich history of silver and gold production. Recent explorations and studies, as encapsulated in the SK 1300 report, indicate significant unmined resources and substantial potential for future mining operations. The report also underlines extensive infrastructure already in place, which positions the project advantageously for rapid operational commencement. The Cross and Caribou mine, owned and operated by the SMS Group, has been identified as having significant potential for resource extraction while adhering to sustainable and responsible mining practices. The inclusion of this asset can fortify ACRG's position in the market and potentially lead to increased shareholder value. Based on the SK 1300 Mineral Assessment for 2022, we have identified considerable mineral resources, with substantial gold and silver deposits. These findings reinforce our belief in the potential profitability and long-term sustainability of the Consolidated Caribou Project. The current estimate of the mineral resources for the Consolidated Caribou Project is over 186 thousand ounces of gold and 2.45 million ounces of silver in the Measured and Indicated Resources classes. This key deposit for development is the Cross Mine. In the Inferred Resource class, there are 128 thousand ounces of gold and 3.69 million ounces of silver, mostly found in veins of the Caribou Mine and other peripheral veins of the district. Not included in this mineral resource estimate are potential mineral resources of copper, lead and zinc that are kno
