Toronto, Ontario – (Newsfile Corp. - November 18, 2024) – CANSTAR RESOURCES INC. (TSXV: ROX | OTC Pink: CSRNF) (“Canstar” or “the Company”) has appointed Dr. David Kilcullen to its advisory board (see detailed bio here). Dr. Kilcullen is a leading global expert in national security, geopolitics, defence technology, and the defence industrial base ecosystem, as well as a best-selling author. The appointment of Dr. Kilcullen is an important milestone in the Company’s critical minerals strategy, and together with the Company’s previously announced appointment to the Nevada Tech Hub, continues to position Canstar to capitalize on the transformational opportunities associated with the West’s focus on securing the supply chain for critical materials.

Commenting on the appointment, Canstar’s President and CEO, Juan Carlos Giron Jr., said, “Amongst the countries of the Democratic West, there is robust and multipartisan support for securing the supply chain for critical minerals. It is reflected in the billions of dollars of government funding allocated to identifying new sources of critical minerals in the West, advancing these projects to production, and developing the technological and downstream processing infrastructure to ensure resilience in the supply chain.

“We believe the metals and mining industry is at an inflection point. Economic, energy transition and national security imperatives are expected to drive a commodity supercycle that will see massive investment in critical minerals projects in North America. We are excited to add an extraordinary public servant and leading expert, Dr. David Kilcullen, to Canstar’s advisory board to help us capitalize on these structural shifts.”
