Xtra Energy Corp. Reveals Positive Petrological Data, Reinforcing Bernice Canyon Antimony Potential with New Mineral Study Results https://lnkd.in/gsBNRiAn : OTCMKTS - XTPT #Nevada #Antimony #News #Invest #America #Domestic #SupplyChains #critical #minerals #military #NationalDefense #security Consulting geologist for Xtra Energy Corp., Robert Johansing, M.Sc., PG & QP, observed, "The results from this study provide Xtra with additional context for the high-grade antimony mineralization mapped and sampled at their Bernice Canyon project. We are now confident that the extensive felsite dikes are the target unit and that the fluids responsible for the antimony deposits traversed the thick sequence of Triassic sediments via the through going dike. Proposed drilling for 2025 will focus on these dikes at shallow (<100m) depths". Mac Shahsavar, P. Eng., the Chairman and CEO of Xtra Energy, stated, "Xtra Energy is currently in the permitting process for a drilling campaign along the felsite dike and beneath the numerous antimony mines and prospects in Bernice Canyon. The receipt of a Notice of Intent from the BLM will allow Xtra to commence road reparations this Spring and commence drilling these shallow antimony targets shortly thereafter".

XTPT Annual Report has been uploaded to OTC Markets Group : 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ePBuEgYp Xtra Energy is actively advancing the American Antimony Project, with the permitting process now underway, reinforcing our commitment to regulatory compliance and environmental responsibility. As road access progresses, we will soon test existing antimony stockpiles, unlocking opportunities for third-party partnerships and early revenue generation. A permitting update is expected soon, with road construction set to begin upon approval, further de-risking the project and clarifying our exploration and development timeline. Evaluating antimony stockpiles remains crucial to assessing commercial viability and strengthening our market position. XTPT continues working with the strategic advisory team behind Sidney Resources’ $8 million capital raise, leveraging their expertise to accelerate project development, enhance operational efficiency, and maximize shareholder value. Stay tuned as we unlock the full potential of American Antimony! 🇺🇸#Antimony #Mining #Growth #ShareholderValue #Exploration #Permitting #Drilling #RevenueGrowth

China export controls freeze antimony shipments to EU from October https://lnkd.in/eTyD7ZhD #Invest #American #SupplyChains #Nevada #Domestic #CriticalMinerals #BringThemHomeNow #China #Antimony #tariffwar "Critically low stock levels in Europe have further fuelled the surge in prices, with regulus grade II material up over 300% compared to a year ago, said Cristina Belda, senior analyst at information agency Argus."

Big news for Xtra Energy! The new March 20, 2025, Executive Orders streamline permits and boost U.S. mineral production especially critical resources like antimony. Our Nevada Antimony Project will benefit from faster approvals, potential grants, and a domestic supply focus. We also have stockpiles ready for additional testing and sale, putting us at the forefront of meeting America’s critical mineral needs. Stay tuned for more on how we're seizing this opportunity! #XTPT #Mining #CriticalMinerals #Antimony #Stockpile #MadeInUSA

Why America’s Future Runs on a Mineral You’ve Never Heard Of https://lnkd.in/gKr2v4Aq #Invest #American #Antimony #Nevada #Stockpiles "Few Americans have heard of antimony, yet this overlooked mineral is at the heart of modern infrastructure, military technology, and national security. It is a critical component of starter batteries, ammunition, night vision goggles, and flame retardants—all essential to both civilian life and military readiness. The problem? The United States has no domestic production of antimony, leaving the country completely reliant on foreign suppliers."

PDAC 2025’s VIP Guest: Antimony’s Priceless Charm https://lnkd.in/ei9kCBvR #Invest #America #Antimony #USA #BringThemHome #Nevada #PDAC2025 #News

Chinese export restrictions on Antimony hitting harder. International parcels are over $50,000/t, whilst the China inland market is $20,000/t, China needs this material just as anyone else. They will pay up domestically, else it leaks. The question is 'where will prices settle'? Back in 2012, I wrote about the market long-term drivers, the last table from report showed the then Sb metal price (c. $10,000/t back then - see below) vs its crustal abundance and where it 'should' be priced if priced in line with its rarity and other similar metals of its kind. Sb should have been 'valued' much higher back then. Given today's supply chain concerns, it is just getting to where it should have been. This figure is around $70,000/t, until certain market dynamics take hold. Even if China exports normalise, we all know there is little ready material, the lead times are long. Then the question of where to process, this is the bottle neck we acted on back in 2011 with the initiation of SPMP, now looking like the belle of the ball. The real issue is that every powerful nation & region needs its own source and a route to market. UK & EU for sure. Over the period of 1970-2010, Chinese output of antimony increased 4x fold. The metal was abundant and prices, relative to other metals declined for years. Caviar for everyone! Given Sb is 300x more scare then copper, it traded at just 1x to 2x the copper price. It is 10x more scare than tin and often been a third of the price. Antimony end uses shrinks as prices go up, but rest assured, Sb's high & unique efficacy in key sectors and uses is so critical, are not driven by price but shear availability. I am hearing the substitution cries already. Leaves room for higher utility purposes. The antimony market should never have been over 100,000tpa given how scare it really is. It will eventually get to half that and with even higher prices in the future, as demand in high tech uses sets the price and supply remains constricted. Sb west may touch $70,000/t soon as the diagram predicted. But, when assessing medium term price floors, for new projects and markets, I look at the geology of what there is actually available. Current population of projects are small mines at around the 1% to 2% Sb, some with nice credits of gold and others with harder to treat lead and arsenic. The typical mining dilution, costs, treatment & transport charges need a floor c. $35,000/t to make a reasonable return. Many of projects will run out over the next decade. Once mined out, the next average geological grade orebodies will then decline to c.0.5% Sb range. These are larger, more metallurgically complex, net Sb pricing will have to rise to support, unless there is gold associated. Sb could be over $140k/t by then and a smaller higher value market c.40,000tpa. Risks to this may be any new east China discoveries pop up vs new tech uses. Markets may well be forced to accelerate all these changes.

Revolutionizing Quantum Computing: The #Antimony Advantage https://lnkd.in/dFxDi4ea "Antimony, a silvery-white metalloid, may hold the key to a breakthrough in the quantum realm. With companies like Google and Microsoft leading initiatives in quantum research, antimony could become a vital part of future developments in this field. Compared to other materials used in quantum computing, such as silicon and superconducting circuits, antimony’s potential to improve qubit coherence and reduce error rates is seen as a significant advantage. The future of quantum computing glitters with the promise of materials like antimony."

#Antimony smelters in Myanmar are concerned that they may have to reduce or postpone production if they cannot secure diesel and electricity supplies, sources told #Fastmarkets on Friday February 7. Thailand has cut broadband network signals, diesel and electricity supplies to some border areas of Myanmar, including Kayin State, on Thursday February 6, according to sources. It remains unclear how long the energy restrictions will last. Thai Prime Minister was on an official visit to China from Wednesday February 5 to Saturday February 8. China-Thailand relations are currently overshadowed by concerns over online fraud and safety issues, according to Reuters. On Tuesday February 4, the Thai government announced that it would cut electricity supplies to certain border areas with Myanmar in an effort to crack down on illegal scam centers. A recent high-profile case involving Chinese actor Wang Xing, who traveled to Thailand for what he believed was an acting job but was abducted and later rescued from a scam center in Myanmar, has sparked heated discussion in China about cross-border telecom scams. Thailand, worried about the effect on its vital tourism sector, has been working to address safety concerns among Chinese visitors, who make up the largest group of tourists to the country.
