Following the internal site review conducted by American Antimony's exploration and operations team, the Company prepared and delivered the 400 kg super sack in accordance with the Scope of Work outlined in the MTA. The material was selected from readily accessible, previously mined stockpiles within the American Antimony Project area and is representative of high-grade antimony mineralization observed across the project.
The delivered material will be used to initiate the agreed-upon metallurgical testing program, which is designed to:
Evaluate antimony recovery potential
Identify any deleterious or penalty elements
Assess processing compatibility
Determine suitability for potential large-scale integration

"This initial delivery is an important milestone and reflects how quickly we were able to move from agreement to execution," said Mac J. Shahsavar, P.Eng., CEO of American Antimony Corp. "The high-grade material supplied represents ore that is readily available across our Nevada project. We look forward to the results of the metallurgical program and to strengthening domestic antimony capabilities as testing progresses."
Metallurgical testing will be conducted through qualified third-party laboratories in accordance with the MTA. Subject to results and mutual agreement, additional shipments may follow as the program advances toward larger-scale validation.
