M2i Global, along with Volato Group, and Titanium X Sign Strategic Collaboration Agreement to Advance Critical Mineral Development in the United States
Includes Exclusive Supply Agreement of Titanium Concentrate
Atlanta, GA and Reno, NV, Jan. 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- M2i Global, Inc. (“M2i,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) (OTCQB: MTWO), a company specializing in the development and execution of a complete global value supply chain for critical minerals, along with Volato Group, Inc. (“Volato”) (NYSE American: SOAR), a technology-driven company, is pleased to announce a strategic collaboration agreement with Titanium X, marking a major step forward in advancing domestic refining capabilities and securing the critical materials supply chain essential to U.S. industry and national security.
Under the agreement, Titanium X and M2i Global will cooperate on the financing, development, and commercialization of Titanium X’s critical mineral assets, leveraging M2i’s global expertise in mineral project execution.
The two firms are actively engaged in discussions to finalize an exclusive supply agreement for titanium concentrate.
Major General (Ret) Alberto Rosende, Chief Executive Officer of M2i, stated, “We are proud to join forces with Titanium X to strengthen the U.S. supply chain for critical minerals. This collaboration combines Titanium X’s world-class asset base with M2i’s execution capabilities and government financing strategies. Together, we aim to accelerate development timelines and deliver tangible value to American industry and stakeholders.”
Justin Warburton, Executive Director of Titanium X, added, “Partnering with M2i Global is a game-changer for Titanium X. Their track record and network—especially in accessing funding and offtake partnerships—will fast-track our mission to become a premier domestic supplier of titanium and other critical minerals. We’re excited to move forward together at this pivotal moment in U.S. industrial policy.”
TIX is in the process of acquiring titanium minerals either by off-take agreements or project acquisition. In addition, the Company has a number of new efficient extraction technologies with the potential to upgrade ore-minerals to a beneficiated concentrate. The objective is to beneficiate in Australia and then ship a concentrate to a M2i facility for further refining using technologies to be developed in combination with UC Berkeley.
TIX’s initial product of interest is centered on upgrading Ilmenite from mineral sand deposits because Western Australia has a number of producers that market a mixed mineral concentrate along with a number of large-scale JORC-compliant resources that are yet to be developed.
This strategic collaboration aligns with both companies’ commitment to responsible resource development, national sustainability goals, and building secure, transparent mineral supply chains in North America.
