## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Welsbach Technology Metals Acquisition Corp. ("WTMA") Announces Successful Approval for its Business Combination with Evolution Metals LLC ("EM") from the Extraordinary General Meeting of Stockholders on June 26, 2025**

*Important milestone to bring to the US capital markets a fully integrated, fully operational critical minerals and materials (CMM) supply chain that is independent of China*

**Chicago, IL and St. Louis, MO, June 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --** *Welsbach Technology Metals Acquisition Corp.* (OTC: WTMA), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced the successful approval from its extraordinary general meeting (" Business Combination EGM") of stockholders for its Business Combination with Evolution Metals LLC ("EM"), dedicated to bringing to the US capital markets a secure, reliable global supply chain for critical minerals and materials ("CMM") that is independent of China.

Through the Business Combination, WTMA and EM expect to acquire, scale and integrate five operating companies: (1) bonded magnet manufacturing; (2) sintered magnet manufacturing; (3) magnet metals and alloy production; (4) Li-ion battery recycling; and (5) smart machine design and automation. Upon closing, the combined company will be renamed Evolution Metals & Technologies Corp. ("EM&T") and expects to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol EMAT.

EM&T's business is to leverage advanced technologies such as robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide integrated midstream and downstream CMM recycling and processing of oxides, metals, magnet alloys, battery materials, and rare earth magnets for key industries including, but not limited to, the automotive, aerospace, defense, healthcare, high tech, consumer electronics and appliances, and renewable energy industries, while driving a sustainable future.

"Today's stockholder approval marks a transformative milestone in our journey to identify a vertically integrated and geopolitically independent supply chain for critical minerals and materials." said Daniel Mamadou, CEO of WTMA. "Our merger with Evolution Metals represents not only a strategic alignment of values and vision, but also a decisive step toward delivering long-term value for our stakeholders. We are proud to join forces with Evolution Metals, who shares our commitment to sustainability, innovation, and industrial resilience in an increasingly complex global environment."

David Wilcox, Managing Member of Evolution Metals LLC, added: "This is an exciting moment for Evolution Metals and our partners. Upon the completion of our merger with WTMA, we we intend to accelerate our mission to create a secure, U.S.-centered supply chain for critical materials vital to clean energy, advanced manufacturing, and national defense. By vertically integrating a supply chain of critical materials production, we bring together complementary strengths and operational capabilities that position us to lead in an era where independence and supply chain security are more important than ever. Our plans are to replicate the Korean operations we expect to acquire into Missouri, creating a major industrial campus. We expect to fully process batteries and e-waste into salts, magnets and related materials – a dominant U.S. Champion in the mid-stream."

In addition, WTMA today announced that WTMA is extending the deadline for its stockholders to withdraw and reverse any previously delivered demand for redemption made in connection with the Business Combination EGM until WTMA determines not to accept reversals of redemption instructions. If a stockholder has previously submitted a request to redeem its shares in connection with the Business Combination EGM and would like to reverse such request, such stockholder may contact WTMA's transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, at spacredemptions@continentalstock.com.

You can find further information regarding the Business Combination and related matters in WTMA's filings with the US Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the Registration Statement on Form S-4. These filings are available on the SEC website: https://www.sec.gov/edgar/search/#/q=wtma.
