United States Antimony Corporation carries 48% analyst upside and a recent 7% gap up with a long-term rising moving average, but the business burns cash at 160% of revenue, has a quality score of 2.3 out of 10, and a put/call ratio of 4.56 signals heavy bearish hedging against the speculative thesis.

About United States Antimony Corporat
About United States Antimony Corporat
United States Antimony's antimony sales more than tripled to $35.4 million in 2025 from $11.1 million in 2024, driven by the average sales price climbing to $25.12 per pound from $7.61 as the Rotterdam antimony benchmark price rose to $23.88 per pound from $10.44. The company processes ore at its Montana smelter and two Mexican facilities into antimony trioxide, metal ingots, and trisulfide, estimating a roughly 4% share of the domestic antimony trioxide market and less than 1% internationally. In 2025, the Montana operation mined 840 tons of its own antimony ore for the first time since the 1980s.
United States Antimony earns revenue by selling finished antimony products on a wholesale basis to industrial companies and government agencies, plus incidental gold and silver recovered from processing antimony ore. The company says it is the only U.S.-based, vertically integrated antimony smelter, competing against foreign producers whose lower-cost imported ore drove domestic antimony mining to a halt in the 1980s. Historically, the Montana facility purchased ore primarily from one supplier in Canada, which also buys back substantially all of the precious metals the company recovers during processing; in 2025 the company began procuring ore from additional international suppliers to reduce that dependence. In September 2025, the company secured a five-year, sole-source IDIQ contract with the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency worth up to $248 million for antimony metal ingots, plus a separate five-year agreement with a new industrial customer for antimony trioxide.
Show full overview
United States Antimony's most concentrated relationship runs through a single Canadian ore supplier: that counterparty has historically provided the majority of feedstock for the Montana smelter and also serves as the buyer for substantially all of the gold and silver the company recovers during processing, meaning the same entity sits on both sides of the Montana facility's input and byproduct-revenue ledger. The company is actively diversifying this exposure — contracting new ore suppliers in Mexico and internationally during 2025, and layering in the $248 million maximum-value Defense Logistics Agency contract running through September 2030 — but as of the 10-K's filing date, the legacy Canadian relationship remains renewed annually rather than locked in under a multi-year agreement.
