U. S. Antimony Announces Successful Testing of New Antimony Trisulfide Product

United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE American: UAMY) reported successful testing of a new product, antimony tri-sulfide (also called “needle antimony” or “crudum”). The product is used as a primer component in center- fired ordnance. China has historically been the principal source of the product in the United States and most other countries. The USAC antimony tri-sulfide has complied with the military specification of MIL-A-159D. The product is now being offered to commercial manufacturers of ordnance. USAC will source the antimony ore from one of its Mexican mines and it will be transported to its floatation mill in Guanajuato, Mexico. The floatation concentrate will be shipped directly to Montana for processing. The processing cost using a proprietary method developed by USAC will be cheaper than the production of antimony metal or oxide. Additionally, the price for the contained antimony is significantly higher than that in antimony oxide or antimony metal. Besides the ordnance market, a larger market for the product is in the friction brake industry. The Company has received request for the product from Japan and Europe.
