America Can't Make Its Own Ammunition Metal. A Nevada Project Just Defined One of the Largest Domestic Sources

NevGold Corp. has defined a significant domestic antimony & gold resource at its Limousine Butte project in Nevada, marking the first modern estimate in over 17 years.
Antimony is designated a critical mineral essential for U.S. defense applications, including ammunition primers, flame retardants, & night-vision equipment, yet the U.S. relies on imports for nearly 100% of its supply.
China restricted antimony exports to the U.S. in late 2024, highlighting supply chain vulnerabilities & making domestic production a national security priority.
The Limousine Butte site is a brownfield operation with near-surface oxide mineralization that allows for established leach-based processing & potential near-term production from historic leach pads.
The project features a dual-metal profile with substantial antimony & gold resources, leveraging record-high gold prices to potentially underwrite development costs.
Major defense & industrial companies like RTX Corporation, GE Aerospace, Honeywell, & Axon Enterprise represent the demand side for antimony within the U.S. supply chain.
NevGold is an exploration-stage company with no revenue, contrasting with the established revenue-generating status of the referenced industrial giants.
