Range Impact Announces Expansion of Investment in its Fola Mine Complex with Acquisition of Two Mining Permits and Two Coal Leases

CLEVELAND, OHIO, July 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Range Impact, Inc. (OTCQB: RNGE) (“Range Impact” or the “Company”), a public company dedicated to acquiring, reclaiming and repurposing distressed coal mines throughout Appalachia, today announced the acquisition of two permits and one coal lease from WV Reclaim Co, LLC and one additional coal lease from AppleAtcha Land LLC at the Fola Mine Complex located in central West Virginia.

Building on its acquisition of 15 mining permits located at the Fola Mine Complex in March 2025, the Company has purchased two additional mining permits (“Purchased Permits”) at the site with an estimated reclamation obligation of $10.4 million. As part of this transaction, which closed on June 30, 2025, the Company assumed a new surface coal lease with a well-capitalized and experienced mine operator that is expected to pay the Company a royalty based on coal mined and sold from these Purchased Permits.

In addition, on July 1, 2025, the Company assumed a new underground coal mining lease with a large public mining company that is expected to pay the Company a royalty based on coal mined and sold from a select block of metallurgical Eagle seam coal located at the Fola Mine Complex.

“Since our acquisition of the Fola Mine approximately 90 days ago, we have successfully reduced the number of permits that we’re responsible for by nearly 10% and acquired two new permits and two coal leases that are expected to provide several years of royalty income to help fund the reclamation and repurposing of the site,” stated Michael Cavanaugh, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. “I am pleased with our initial progress and encouraged by our team’s effort and dedication to resolve the reclamation obligations at the Fola Mine and thereby unlock the underlying value of the land for the long-term benefit of the local communities and the Company’s shareholders,” Mr. Cavanaugh added.
