United States Antimony Completes Initial Resource Study on Fostung Tungsten Property
United States Antimony announced the completion of an initial resource engineering study on its 100% owned Fostung Tungsten Property located in Ontario, Canada. The final SK 1300 Technical Report will be filed with the SEC. This initial resource report was authored by SRK. The Fostung Tungsten deposit is located approximately 70 kilometers west of Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, near the town of Espanola. The technical consultants, using a cut-off grade of 0.08% WO3, calculated an inferred resource of 14.62M metric tons grading 0.17% WO3 containing 53.595M pounds of WO3. With a current tungsten price of $1,890 per metric ton unit the gross estimated raw metal value of the inferred resource discovered at the Fostung Tungsten Deposit is approximately $4.6B, prior to mining and processing costs. Joseph Bardswich, Chief Mining Engineer, stated, "We acquired the Fostung Tungsten property in June of last year with the view that this deposit had the greatest potential to become the next North American producer of tungsten. Our business model is to 'fast-track' mining projects in an effort to meet the demands of our U.S. military for certain critical minerals. The Fostung Tungsten property will initially be mined via an open pit. This initial resource report announced today confirms this significant high-grade deposit and its incredible future value. I was born and raised in the Sudbury area during an era when it was referred to as a 'moonscape' due to the shortcuts taken to meet the immediate critical demands for nickel required by World War I, the Korean War, and other military demands. Every time that I return to the area, I am amazed at the results of the reclamation programs that have been undertaken over the last 30 years. Fostung will be developed without that degradation, but with the skills, knowledge, and perseverance of the people located in the area. We are eager to continue with the recommended next phases of drilling, bulk sampling, and metallurgical testing to advance the Fostung deposit from an inferred to a measured and indicated resource."

- Military Action Escalation: Defense Secretary Hegseth announced that Tuesday will mark the most intense day of strikes against Iran, with the U.S. observing the lowest number of missiles fired by Iran in the past 24 hours, indicating a significant decline in its military capabilities and potential further losses in the conflict.
- Control of Strategic Objectives: Hegseth emphasized that President Trump will dictate the pace of the war, deciding when specific objectives are achieved, which could influence the U.S.'s long-term military deployment and diplomatic strategy in the Middle East.
- Oil Price Volatility Impact: As the conflict escalates, oil prices surged past $110, prompting the G7 to consider releasing emergency reserves to mitigate economic pressures from the widening Middle East war, which could have profound implications for global energy markets, particularly for oil-importing nations.
- New Leadership Challenges: Trump expressed dissatisfaction with Iran's new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei, suggesting he cannot live in peace, which may exacerbate tensions in U.S.-Iran relations and affect future diplomatic negotiations.
- Diplomatic Balancing Act: India faces a diplomatic balancing act amid the Iran crisis, particularly as its oil supply vulnerability is highlighted by only weeks of crude reserves compared to China's months-long stockpiles, indicating India's economic fragility.
- Multi-Alignment Strategy: While China's Foreign Minister calls for stronger BRICS cooperation, India remains silent, and experts warn that abandoning its multi-alignment approach could lead to supply volatility and fiscal strain, especially with rising LPG and LNG prices.
- US Relations: India has not condemned US actions during the Iran crisis and appears to be leaning closer to Israel, raising questions about whether Modi's visit to Israel indicates a shift towards the US-Israel coalition.
- Economic Interests: Although India has not taken sides in the conflict, its national interests seem to align more with the US and Israel, particularly after the US lifted punitive tariffs on Indian purchases of Russian crude, which could impact India's diplomatic standing in the Global South.
- Oil Price Surge: Crude oil prices have surged past $100 per barrel due to escalating tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, reflecting market fears of supply disruptions that could lead to increased global energy costs and economic impacts.
- Iran's Military Stance: The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson stated that attacks on U.S. military bases in the Gulf are legitimate under international law, a position that may escalate regional tensions and affect international relations.

- Mitigated Oil Price Impact: With oil prices surpassing $100 per barrel for the first time, China's substantial 1.2 billion barrels of crude reserves and diversification into renewables suggest a reduced sensitivity to price fluctuations, highlighting its unique position in global energy markets.
- Energy Consumption Transition: By 2030, China aims to increase the share of non-fossil fuels in total energy consumption to 25%, reflecting its commitment to renewables and further decreasing reliance on maritime oil imports, which is crucial for long-term energy security.
- Growing EV Demand: The rapid adoption of electric vehicles, particularly in heavy trucks, has already displaced over 1 million barrels per day of implied oil demand, with expectations of an additional 600,000 barrels per day increase in the next year, showcasing the potential of electrified transportation.
