Almonty Industries, MP Materials, and other commodity stocks have already demonstrated the new reality: in today's geopolitical environment, commodities are becoming critical, and stock prices can multiply dramatically. Antimony Resources offers investors an opportunity to participate at a comparatively early stage. History shows that when mining companies transition from explorer to producer, valuations can move into the billions. Despite a strong rally, Antimony Resources is still valued at "only" around EUR 50 million. Due to pressure from the US government and a mining-friendly jurisdiction, Antimony Resources could advance toward production significantly faster than is typical in the sector. A direct involvement by the US government would not be surprising. After investments in MP Materials, Vulcan Elements, and Trilogy Metals, the Trump administration recently pumped billions into USA Rare Earth. Could Antimony Resources be next?

    From niche metal to strategic factor

    Antimony has gone from being a niche metal to a strategic factor. This is precisely what Antimony Resources is benefiting from. In a recent interview with Lyndsay Malchuk of the International Investment Forum, Antimony Resources CEO Jim Atkinson emphasizes that defense, supply chains, and energy security have made the metal "critical." At the same time, North America has only limited control over its supply. With Bald Hill in New Brunswick, Canada, the company is developing a project in a mining-friendly jurisdiction that, according to Atkinson, explicitly promotes production. This tailwind is increasingly crucial, especially for critical raw materials.

    High-grade results

    Atkinson also reports on the latest results from Phase 2 drilling. In 2025, the company drilled more than 8,000 meters, bringing the total volume of drilling on the property to over 13,800 meters. The published grades are among the highest reported grades in North America to date. The company also aims to be "at the forefront" internationally. For Atkinson, consistency is more important than a single hit. In the first program, 75% to 80% of the drilling already yielded high-grade antimony. The second round follows a similar pattern. The goal now is to transition from exploration potential to a reliable resource. This will be achieved through a denser drill hole sequence and support from a consulting firm. Antimony Resources is planning a 10,000-meter program with a focus on "definition drilling" in the main area, but also intends to pursue two additional mineralized zones, including a newly discovered zone on the west side.

    Efficient and fast production

    Compared to other projects, Atkinson believes Antimony Resources is better positioned, particularly in terms of capital requirements. His argument: high grade beats size. He points out that Bald Hill is significantly higher grade on average than known references in North America and could therefore start as a lean underground project. From this, he deduces potentially lower costs and faster feasibility. In addition, New Brunswick is working on a critical minerals strategy that is intended to shorten approval times. Environmental standards and the involvement of local communities would not be neglected in the process. According to Atkinson, Antimony Resources is preparing the approval process early and aims to submit the application at the end of 2026 or the beginning of 2027, with the goal of rapidly developing the project toward production.

    Conclusion: A highly attractive metal and equity opportunity

    Antimony is a highly compelling critical metal, alongside rare earths and tungsten. Antimony Resources is currently valued at around EUR 50 million, suggesting substantial upside potential. A potential entry by the US government is far from unlikely and would almost certainly act as a catalyst for further share price appreciation.

    Nuclear comeback offers opportunities: Standard Uranium, Cameco, and Denison Mines dominate the Athabasca Basin

    As the world experiences a return to nuclear power, Canada's Athabasca Basin in the province of Saskatchewan is becoming more than ever the strategic heart of global uranium supply. Reports from the International Energy Agency (IEA) officially herald the "age of electrification," in which nuclear energy is transforming from a transitional solution to an indispensable pillar—thanks to climate neutrality. This development is driven by the growing energy demands of artificial intelligence and modern IT infrastructure. Studies by McKinsey and the IEA consistently show that the electricity demand of global data centers is expected to triple by 2030. In view of these fundamental market dynamics, analysts at the World Nuclear Association (WNA) have set the ambitious goal of significantly expanding global nuclear capacity over the next 25 years. In this environment, Standard Uranium is positioning itself as one of the most active and precise explorers, using technologically advanced methods to identify undiscovered corridors in the shadows of industry giants. The company operates in close proximity to the big players and offers investors maximum leverage on the price of uranium in the safest and richest uranium region in the world.

    AI drives demand: Three copper stocks for the boom - Freeport-McMoRan, Power Metallic Mines, and Aurubis!

    A few years ago, copper was considered one of the most boring metals. Demand grew steadily, but not dramatically. The red metal was used everywhere, from construction to power lines, but it lacked appeal. And the price remained so low that there was hardly any investment in the development of new deposits over the past decade. With the AI revolution and global electrification, this has changed dramatically. Copper is the most efficient electrical conductor after silver and now plays a major role. For example, an electric vehicle requires three to four times more copper than a combustion engine. Added to this are wind turbines, solar parks, and the massive expansion and modernization of power grids. Analysts estimate that by 2040, the world will need to produce more copper than humanity has consumed in its entire history. After electric vehicles, artificial intelligence has triggered the next wave of demand due to the enormous power requirements of data centers. The huge server farms of NVIDIA, Google, Amazon, and others require kilometers of copper cable and massive copper rails for power distribution. As a result, there is now renewed investment in new copper deposits. Investors should diversify their portfolios to benefit from this development in the long term.

    The rally in critical metals continues! 250% opportunity with Antimony Resources

    • Defense

    Tariff turmoil and geopolitical conflicts such as those in Ukraine, Gaza, and now Mexico are sadly causing extreme volatility in the capital markets. There are currently few opportunities for investors to catch their breath, as the world is in turmoil. Driven by uncertainty and supply bottlenecks, gold and silver continue to rise in the middle of the week, reaching new monthly highs of USD 88 and USD 5,250, respectively. Largely ignored for decades, antimony is now joining tungsten at the center of economic and security policy considerations, as key industries in the high-tech and defense sectors are hardly scalable without a stable supply of antimony. This dynamic is triggered by structural supply bottlenecks, politically motivated export restrictions, and a high concentration of production in a few countries. The result is a market in which even small disruptions trigger massive price movements and expose the vulnerability of global supply chains. Antimony Resources has found an enrichment in its Bald Hill project that could reach industrial dimensions. The stock is poised for a revaluation!
