Descriptiontext

REOStar Energy Corporation is a publicly traded mining and energy company (OTC Pink: REOS) headquartered in Pasadena, California. Originally structured around an oil and gas production aggregation model, the company sought to generate immediate cash flow from existing oil production while acquiring interests in proven reserve fields and pursuing a stated goal of becoming a Net Zero Carbon Neutral Energy Company by 2050 through acquisition of alternative energy assets. The company's revenue model was characterized by aggregating existing hydrocarbon production and acquiring production from proven reserve fields to maximize revenue streams for shareholders.

The company's strategic direction shifted materially beginning in March 2023, when it acquired an interest in Leuffer Mining Group, a Mexican iron ore mining operation that had exported over 1.5 million metric tons of iron ore to China, Hong Kong, and the United States between 2019 and 2022. This acquisition marked the company's diversification into mining and critical minerals.

In April 2026, Virunga Critical Inc., a Delaware-based mining and critical minerals company focused on the Democratic Republic of Congo, acquired a majority stake of 54,750,000 shares in REOStar Energy. Post-acquisition, the combined entity is positioned as the second largest U.S.-domiciled publicly traded mining company operating in the DRC, with stated tungsten production of 50 metric tons per month and 120MT of tungsten in inventory. The expanded portfolio spans iron ore, gold, silver, copper, rare earth metals, and tungsten, with operating geographies across the United States, Mexico, China, Hong Kong, and the DRC. No revenue figures, headcount, or audited financial metrics are disclosed in available sources.
