Jim Atkinson, CEO of Antimony Resources stated: “We are pleased to have John join our
advisory board. The United States wants to secure the domestic supply of Antimony and not
rely on China. With John’s connections to the United States Department of War and Military, he
will be instrumental in introducing Antimony Resources to them with a goal of securing supply
for United States antimony needs for its Military and assisting the Company in obtaining
loans and bursaries from the United States Department of War and the Export-Import Bank of
the United States for the Bald Hill Antimony project.”
Bald Hill Antimony Project - A Project with Significant Antimony Potential
Highlights
• Bald Hill is a well-known, high-grade antimony deposit in southern New Brunswick,
Canada.
• Assays indicate that Bald Hill is the highest-grade antimony deposit in North America
with mineable widths indicated by drilling.
• Drilling has outlined an antimony deposit in the Main Zone over 600 meters long and to
a depth of at least 350 meters. The mineralization is open in all directions.
• Widths of mineralization average 4 to 5 meters and grades average 3% to 4% antimony.
• NI-43-101 Technical Report: The estimated potential quantity and grade of the drilled
area from the 2025 Technical Report, which is the target of our exploration, is reported
in the Technical Reports approximately 2.7 million tonnes with a grade between 3% and
4% antimony1. For more details on the Potential of the project as described by the
author of the Technical Report please consult the NI43-101 which has been filed on
SEDAR. Antimony Resources Corp. has not completed enough work to confirm this
estimate. The potential quantity and grade are conceptual in nature as there has been
insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further
exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.
• Potential to expand based on recently discovered targets and additional claims added to
the property to the west, south and east.
• New Zones outlined by Soil Sampling approximately 3 kilometres south of the Main Zone
on the newly acquired Second Run Claim.
