M2i Global, Volato ‘applauds’ U.S. efforts in forming Pax Silica

M2i Global (MTWO), along with Volato Group (SOAR) applauds the recent December 11, 2025 announcement from the U.S. Department of State whereby Pax Silica, a U.S.-led strategic initiative to build a secure, prosperous, and innovation driven silicon supply chain-from critical minerals and energy inputs to advanced manufacturing, semiconductors, AI infrastructure, and logistics, was formed. Major General Alberto Rosende, Chief Executive Officer of M2i, stated, “The State Department’s flagship effort on AI and supply chain security, The Pax Silica, signals a commitment to securing and modernizing the full value chain for the minerals and materials that will power the future of technology and energy. M2i Global applauds this effort as our mission and goals of strengthening and fortifying our critical mineral supply chains against disruptions through innovation and international partnership align with these principles. It further supports our initiatives in sourcing minerals from Australia, a Pax Silica member, through our Australia-based partners such as NT Minerals and Nimy Resources. Our partnerships and agreements, encompassing sourcing, processing and technology, enable secure reliable access to critical minerals for the U.S. and its allies. The Pax Silica is a tremendous step towards critical mineral independence and M2i has already begun charting the way forward.”
