【Latest News: The United States is Increasing Antimony Production】
On November 9, 2025, Washington time, the U.S. "Wall Street Journal" wrote in a press release:
The United States is increasing antimony production to meet the needs of the defense industry. Miners are rushing to mine antimony—a little-known element used by U.S. defense companies, which China stopped supplying in response to the trade war. Now, companies are resuming mines in Alaska and Idaho, where antimony was last produced in the 20th century. The War Department is investing in new projects.
The price of antimony has quadrupled compared to the previous two years. In September, a $43 million investment was announced to accelerate antimony production in Alaska. Additionally, the Trump administration of the United States signed a $245 million gold bar supply contract with the U.S. Antimony Company.
