Almonty fires up the turbo: Reaching new heights with tungsten and foresight
Almonty Industries (TSX: AII; WKN: A1JSSD; ISIN: CA0203981034; EUR 2.75) is set to become a key player in strategic raw material security in 2025, and with good reason. Despite a fourfold increase in its share price and a market value of over CAD 1.2 billion, the story is far from over. Of particular concern are the intensifying international tensions between the power blocs of the US, Europe, and China, which show no signs of easing. At recent summit meetings, it became clear that neither side is willing to make concessions, even on minor issues. Tariffs, inflation, high debt, and a dire supply situation on the commodity markets are further exacerbating the political rifts between East and West. At the center of this storm are commodity producers and industrial buyers who depend on stable supply chains. Here is an update on our top pick: Almonty Industries.

From niche player to key player: Almonty's global mission
Almonty Industries is one of the most dynamic rising stars of the year and is on the verge of a possible paradigm shift. What is currently unfolding in South Korea with the reopening of the Sangdong mine is nothing less than the establishment of the largest tungsten producer outside China at a time when geopolitical tensions are dramatically tightening the market for critical metals. Western governments are responding with strategic stockpiling policies and are increasingly turning to suppliers such as Almonty. The demand for non-Chinese supply chains is meeting a highly developed, almost operational project with enormous leverage. The fact that US defense companies are already securing long-term purchase agreements is an expression of deep confidence in the business model and an anticipation of future earnings jumps. Almonty is thus much more than a pure mining operator; the Company is poised to become a key geopolitical player in the supply of critical raw materials. The market is beginning to recognize the potential, but there is still a huge gap in terms of value compared to other listed critical raw material companies.
A small technical adjustment ahead of the Nasdaq listing
Yesterday, the Company announced a technical change to its share structure: This involves a reverse split at a ratio of 1.5 to 1. The reason: To meet Nasdaq listing requirements, which mandate minimum share prices, typically above USD 3. Although Almonty's share price has already exceeded this threshold, the consolidation gives the Company additional security for the upcoming listing. Important for investors: The Consolidation of the share will take place on Monday. Anyone wishing to make value comparisons should therefore note the position value after the close of trading on Friday. Short sellers are unlikely to be happy at this point, as custodian banks tend to close positions before such dates. If settlement processes such as the conversion of securities accounts are delayed, some short sellers could find themselves under pressure in the short term. But what makes shorties sweat could mean special returns for long-term investors!
It is like the equivalent of a seal of nobility
The preparations for entry into the prestigious US market underscore the Company's intention to focus more on international investors in the future. A listing on the Nasdaq not only opens up access to well-capitalized funds and institutional investors, but also increases the chances of further index inclusions and greater visibility on the global market. For companies like Almonty, this is equivalent to a seal of quality, because only those who meet strict transparency, financial, and governance requirements make it to the world's most recognized stock exchange. In the long term, this could result in significant advantages in terms of capital raising and company valuation. **In the short term, it will lead to a notable increase in liquidity. Exciting times ahead!
Stockhouse visits the Panasqueira mine in Portugal
Recently, a visit was made to the Panasqueira site in Portugal. The mine, which is wholly owned by the Company, is located near Covilhã in the Castelo Branco region and is one of the world's oldest continuously operated tungsten mines. Since it began operations in 1896, it has developed into one of the most reliable sources of high-purity tungsten concentrate. Today, the mine processes around 700,000 to 800,000 tons of ore annually, producing approximately 100 to 120 tons of concentrate per month. The current focus is on developing a new mining level (Level 4), which is expected to increase production volumes and improve operational efficiency.

The Almonty story is nothing short of impressive. There are likely only a few stocks worldwide whose business model aligns so perfectly with the current geopolitical landscape. Scarcity, global tensions, and fears of a new supply chain collapse: a volatile mix with plenty of fuel!
