Earlier this month, the company was awarded $27 million by the Department of War (DOW) under Title III of the Defense Production Act to enhance, innovate, and expand domestic extraction, processing, and refinement of critical materials.

The award was approved last year but was delayed due to a government shutdown. DOW’s $27 million investment in UAMY will fund modernization and expand the company’s capacity located in Montana to refine and produce antimony necessary for flame retardants, batteries, munitions, and other defense applications, it further added. 

Shares in the company have risen 108% so far in 2026.
