flag Locksley Resources produced the first U.S.-made antimony ingot, reducing reliance on China amid rising prices and strategic demand.

flag Locksley Resources has produced the first domestically manufactured antimony ingot in the U.S., a milestone in reducing dependence on foreign sources, especially China, which controls most global supply and recently banned exports. flag The move comes amid rising prices—over 400% increase to more than $60,000 per tonne—and aligns with federal efforts to secure critical minerals for defense, semiconductors, and energy storage. flag The Desert project, near the Mountain Pass rare earths mine, features a high-grade deposit with a 47.9% antimony assay and a mineralized corridor expanded by 400% to 1.2 kilometers. flag Locksley is now advancing pilot production and seeking federal support to scale operations and meet U.S. standards.
