Blue Moon Metals – Front-Running the DoD

BMM’s CEO has been front-running an allegedly “approved” $30m Department of Defense investment in Springer to select analysts. Not only is this MNPI -- it would also be in breach of DoD contract terms.

PLEASE READ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER – PAGE 4

September 4, 2026 – Subsequent to the publication of our report on BMM, Viceroy learned from multiple sources that BMM CEO, Christian Kargl-Simard, advised select analysts and investors that Springer was scheduled to receive a roughly $30m “approved” US federal grant to refurbish the Springer plant, citing a DoD "list of approved projects".

This is exactly the type of reckless criminal behaviour we have come to expect from the cowboys running the BMM pump and dump. Outside of the obvious criminal element of disseminating MNPI to selected analysts:

  • If Springer was “approved” for a $30m DoD contract, front-running this contract disclosure is a strict Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) breach, and grounds for withdrawal of any funding.

  • If this story is false: then the dissemination of information regarding a false grant is grounds for debarment from future grants.

Viceroy has received communications supporting this account and has now informed Canadian and US authorities.

Letters to the OSC and the DoD are both attached. Letters to the SEC, DOJ and other federal oversight agencies have also been posted.
