300%+ Gains: Is This 2024’s Hottest Commodity?

In This Article:

A little-known metal called Antimony rallied 300% this year, overtaking gold, silver, and even Bitcoin.

And there is something that the algorithm gods haven’t noticed.

You see, Western powers have embarked on a $100 billion spending spree to restock their armories.

Cruise missiles, artillery shells, javelins, bullets, and armored vehicles. They ALL contain antimony, and the worst news is that the U.S. doesn’t produce an ounce of it.

This huge price spike that followed China’s decision to cut antimony supply to the U.S. this summer was the final wake-up call, and under Trump, the U.S. will no longer stand idle.

Following the rally in gold earlier this year, gold miners are the first to pick up the slack as Western governments are backing billions of dollars in loans for the world’s most promising new sources of antimony supply.

Consider Australia’s Larvotto, which boasts the country’s largest antimony deposit and owns the Hillgrove gold-antimony project near Armidale, New South Wales. Year-to-date, the stock is up almost 600% since the start of 2024.

And it’s newcomers like Military Metals Corp. (CSE:MILI; OTCQB:MILIF) that could be the next big winners.

Reviving World-Class Antimony Properties 

Military Metals has acquired two of the top ten Antimony projects in the world and is rapidly bringing onstream a new source of antimony supply.

One of their most significant acquisitions is the Trojarova project in Slovakia.

This historic antimony deposit, dating back to the Cold War, holds an estimated 60,998.4 tons of antimony – an in situ resource now valued at an astounding $2 billion.

Discovered in the 1950s and explored further in the 80s and 90s, Trojarova's development was suddenly halted as the Cold War ended and antimony's strategic importance faded.

But the world has changed.

Geopolitical instability is the new normal, and with NATO countries spending tens of billions of dollars to re-stock their depleted arsenals, the demand for antimony is peaking.

Military Metals Corp. CEO Scott Eldridge believes the richest part of the deposit remains untouched.

For Slovakia, reviving Trojarova is a golden opportunity to become a key player in the European critical metals landscape. With tensions escalating with Russia and China, securing domestic antimony sources is crucial. Trojarova could be the solution, providing Slovakia with a strategic advantage and strengthening its position within the European Union.

Slovakia's existing mining infrastructure aligns perfectly with the EU's Critical Raw Materials Act. This opens doors for potential EU funding, including potential grants, further incentivizing Trojarova's development and positioning Military Metals Corp. as a vital partner in Europe's quest for critical mineral security.
