The UN Global Compact Commitments and Reporting

Launched in 2000, the UN Global Compact is a multi-stakeholder platform for the development, implementation, and disclosure of responsible business practices. Companies that join commit to integrating the UN's Ten Principles on human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption into their operations. Beyond this, the Global Compact aligns businesses with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, creating a shared roadmap for a sustainable future. Participation signifies a commitment to both sustainability and transparency, requiring annual reporting on progress towards these goals.

About Aclara

Aclara Resources Inc. (TSX:ARA) is a development-stage company that is focused on heavy rare earth mineral resources hosted in Ion-Adsorption Clay deposits. The Company's rare earth mineral resource development projects include the Penco Module in the Bio-Bio Region of Chile and the Carina Module in the State of Goiás, Brazil.

Aclara's rare earth extraction process offers several environmentally attractive features. Circular mineral harvesting does not involve blasting, crushing, or milling, and therefore does not generate tailings and eliminates the need for a tailings storage facility. The extraction process developed by Aclara minimizes water consumption through high levels of water recirculation, made possible by the inclusion of a water treatment facility within its patented process design. The ionic clay feedstock is amenable to leaching with a common fertilizer main reagent, ammonium sulfate. Furthermore, harmful levels of radionuclides, typical of hard rock rare earth deposits, are not concentrated within Aclara's processing flowsheet.
