The investment will allow the company to advance its plan for <strong>large-scale production<\/strong>, with a target date of 2028. <\/p>\n\n<p>The funds are earmarked to complete feasibility studies and engineering for an <strong>antimony plant<\/strong>, as well as to upgrade refining facilities. This effort aligns with the U.S. government&#8217;s Executive Order on increasing <strong>domestic mineral production<\/strong>, ensuring a critical supply for key industries such as defense and microelectronics. <\/p>\n\n<p>With this funding, <strong>SSMRC <\/strong>is uniquely positioned to address deficiencies in the antimony supply chain. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/united-states-antimony-begins-antimony-mining-in-montana\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"275210\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">antimony supply chain in the United States.<\/a> <\/strong>supply chain in the United States. It is estimated that the refinery could meet about 40% of the country&#8217;s annual demand by 2028, with the goal of reaching 80% by 2031. In addition to processing its own concentrates, the company will be able to refine third-party materials, taking advantage of its proprietary technology for metals such as gallium and germanium.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Despite its focus on <strong>national supply<\/strong> security, the Sunshine Project is a world-class asset. Ranked among the highest-grade silver deposits globally, its indicated resources exceed 112 million ounces of silver. <\/p>\n\n<p>Projected production could increase total U.S. silver production by 20% or more, demonstrating the size of this project.
