Antimony Mining Market Experiencing Rapid Growth as a Result of Growing Demand Across Various Sectors
MarketNewsUpdates News Commentary NEW YORK, Aug. 11, 2025 /CNW/ -- Industry insiders say that the global demand for Antimony market is expected to continue growing for several years to come. Some key uses of antimony include: Antimony alloys improve the durability of lead-acid batteries in military vehicles; Its flame-retardant properties enhance the fire resistance of military uniforms and equipment; and it is used in semiconductors for infrared sensors and night-vision devices. These are crucial for defense technology. A 2025 report from Research and Markets revealed the antimony market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.54 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to advanced electronics, EV revolution, stringent regulations, global economic conditions, exploration and mining developments. Major trends in the forecast period include green technologies, battery technologies, market expansion in Asia-Pacific, shift towards sustainable antimony production, supply chain challenges and price volatility. The anticipated growth of the antimony market is attributed to the escalating number of fire accidents and the implementation of rigorous fire safety regulations. According to these regulations, prioritizing prevention is crucial to averting fire-related incidents. The surge in fire accidents has led to an increased demand for fire safety measures, consequently driving up antimony production. Antimony is commonly utilized as a flame inhibitor in fire-resistant apparel, flame retardants, and various fire protection systems. For example, in November 2023, reports from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), a non-profit organization based in the United States, revealed that in 2022, local fire departments in the U.S. responded to 1.5 million fire accidents. These incidents resulted in the loss of 3,790 lives, with 13,250 individuals sustaining injuries. The property damage from these fires is estimated to be $18 billion. Moreover, between 2021 and 2022, apartment fire-related deaths increased by 14%, injuries by 7%, and property losses by 6%. Consequently, the surge in fire incidents and the enforcement of stringent fire safety regulations are key drivers for the antimony market." Active mining companies active in markets currently include: Xtra Energy Corporation (OTCPK: XTPT), United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE American: UAMY), Perpetua Resources Corp. (NASDAQ: PPTA), MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP), Dateline Resources Limited (OTCQB: DTREF). Research and Markets also added in a separate article: "North America and Europe, together accounting for over 40% share of the global Antimony demand in 2024, are the other major markets. The main applications for Antimony in these regions are centered around the automotive and plastics industries. However, these markets are also characterized by stringent industrial regulatory and safety standards in the areas of environmental and personnel protection, which has put brakes on further demand for the element and its compounds. Recycling of old lead acid batteries to obtain antimony has been an effective strategy to curb ecological harm in these markets, a trend that is now catching up in other regions, too." Major Antimony Deposit Discovered: American Antimony Corporation - Operating as Xtra Energy Corporation (OTCPK: XTPT) - Confirms Thick, High-Grade Antimony-Gold Dike System at Arrance Mine - Xtra Energy Corporation ($XTPT), a U.S. based company dedicated to securing antimony, a critical mineral vital to national security for its use in defense, semiconductors, and energy storage, is pleased to provide its preliminary drilling report from the Arrance Mine, part of the flagship 4,194 acre American Antimony Project in Nevada's historic Bernice Canyon District.

Startup Anduril becomes third U.S. SRM supplier amid rising defense demand
Aug 5 (Reuters) - Defense technology startup Anduril Industries said on Tuesday it has become the third supplier of solid rocket motors (SRMs) to the United States, breaking a decades-long duopoly and addressing a critical bottleneck in missile production as global conflicts drive up demand. Rising geopolitical tensions — including the Russia-Ukraine war and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East — have fueled a global surge in demand for munitions, prompting militaries to replenish and expand their stockpiles. Until now, only L3Harris Technologies (LHX.N), opens new tab and Northrop Grumman (NOC.N), opens new tab have manufactured SRMs at scale in the U.S. Anduril said it has opened a full-rate SRM manufacturing facility in McHenry, Mississippi, which now employs more than 100 workers, up from 40 in early 2024. The company has already test-fired over 700 motors and aims to produce 6,000 tactical motors annually by the end of 2026. The $75 million site incorporates automation and digital systems to streamline rocket motor production, a process the company says has seen minimal innovation over the years. The company is using a bladeless high-speed mixer and a custom aluminum-lithium fuel blend, it claims can improve missile range by up to 40%. Anduril, best known for its autonomous drones and AI-driven defense systems, was recently selected by the U.S. Army to develop a new 4.75-inch SRM for long-range precision artillery. In June, Anduril had raised $2.5 billion, giving it a valuation of $30.5 billion.
