11 reasons why Almonty Industries is the top choice for investors in the tungsten sector
Tungsten plays a key role in the realm of strategic raw materials. Its unique properties make it indispensable for high-tech industries, defense technology, and the energy transition. Its hardness, density, and heat resistance are irreplaceable worldwide—whether in armor plating, rocket propulsion systems, medical devices, or wind turbines. However, with a market share of over 80%, China and Russia control almost the entire global supply. Reliable sources outside these regions are incredibly scarce. Almonty Industries (WKN: A414Q8 | ISIN: CA0203987072 | Ticker symbol: ALI1) has positioned itself as the leading Western alternative in recent years. Here are the 11 key reasons why this tungsten specialist represents the top investment opportunity in the sector – and why investors should be cautious of so-called imitators.

Why Almonty Industries could be a better investment than MP Materials
Valuation gap with billion-dollar potential? Investors may be overlooking a sleeping giant.

Why Almonty Industries could become the BioNTech of critical metals
Between 2019 and 2021, investors in BioNTech witnessed a prime example of how a strategically relevant product – in this case, the COVID-19 vaccine – became a real stock market rocket thanks to government pressure, political support, and high public expectations. During this period, the share price rose from less than EUR 12.00 to over EUR 397.00. Those who invested early and were patient were able to achieve returns of over 3,200%. The decisive driver was not only technological innovation but also the government's determination to have the population vaccinated multiple times, which secured massive revenues for BioNTech. Today, a strikingly similar scenario is emerging with Almonty Industries (WKN: A1JSSD | ISIN: CA0203981034 | Ticker symbol: ALI) – only this time it is not about vaccines, but about the strategic raw material tungsten, which is indispensable for defense, aerospace, electronics, and mechanical engineering.

Gold rush 2025: Why Desert Gold Ventures Inc. is now on the brink of a historic revaluation!
Imagine this: A company is sitting on a gold treasure trove of over 1.1 million ounces – and is valued by the market as if this treasure were worthless.

Almonty Industries: The new Pillar of Western Raw Material Security
The Western world is facing a raw material crisis with explosive geopolitical implications. In recent months, China has drastically tightened its export controls on critical minerals, affecting primarily strategically important metals such as gallium, germanium, antimony, and, most recently, tungsten. These raw materials are indispensable for the defense industry, semiconductor production, and high-tech manufacturing. Amid this tense situation, one company that is positioning itself as an important part of the solution is stepping into the spotlight: Almonty Industries (TSX: AII). The tungsten specialist operates strategically located tungsten projects in South Korea, Portugal, and Spain and will soon play a key role in supplying Western industries, as global tungsten supplies are expected to run critically low in the near future.

Almonty Industries: Why is the share price set to multiply, and is the supply chain breaking down?
In corporate development, there are various triggers for growth spurts and rising profits. At Almonty Industries (TSX: AII), the reason is clear: the Company will begin operating one of the world's largest tungsten mines in South Korea this summer. While other mining projects often still have to contend with lengthy approval processes or environmental regulations, and often offer little realistic prospect of success, Almonty is on the verge of expanding its production to such an extent that it could meet the entire demand of the US in the future. Those looking to invest in tungsten should go for the "original" – Almonty shares. The situation on the tungsten market is now so tense that the price in Shanghai has risen to a 12-year high of over USD 56 per kg. Accordingly, the profitability of Almonty's mines in Portugal and South Korea is likely to increase further. Uncertain times lie ahead for defense companies such as Hensoldt, Renk, Rheinmetall, and their suppliers. When will the supply chain break down? – More on this in the report.
