Aftermath Silver Chairman Michael Williams joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s new strategic advisory engagement with Global Frontier Advisors (GFA) and the formation of an Advisory Board to help position its Berenguela silver-copper-manganese project in Peru as a potential critical minerals source for U.S.-aligned supply chains.
Williams said the company has entered into a formal Advisory Services Agreement through its newly formed U.S. subsidiary, U.S. Critical Minerals Corp. (USCMC). As part of that process, Aftermath has appointed three founding GFA partners as inaugural members of the Advisory Board: Lieutenant General David Bellon (USMC, Ret.), Lieutenant General Michael S. Groen (USMC, Ret.), and Ambassador James “Jimmy” Story (Ret.).
The board has been established to support the strategic positioning of the 100%-owned Berenguela project, which contains silver, copper, and manganese and could become an important source of critical materials for U.S. battery, industrial, and defense-related supply chains.
Aftermath said the company is evaluating partnerships, offtake agreements, and funding structures to help advance Berenguela in alignment with U.S. efforts to secure Western Hemisphere critical mineral feedstock for domestic refining and manufacturing capacity. Management believes this creates an opportunity to position Berenguela as a strategically important project within North American critical minerals policy.
With the new advisory board in place, USCMC gains access to senior-level expertise and relationships across the U.S. national security, defense, energy, and development finance communities. Aftermath said the advisors are expected to help the company engage with relevant government departments and agencies while also identifying potential eligibility for federal and state funding programs.
These could include opportunities under the Defense Production Act, as well as programs administered by the U.S. Department of Energy, the Export-Import Bank of the United States, and the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation.
Management believes the advisory engagement strengthens Aftermath’s ability to pursue strategic partnerships and financing options that could accelerate development of Berenguela as a potential long-term source of critical minerals for U.S.-based supply chains.
