Why Antimony is a critical mineral today
Antimony is listed as a Critical Raw Material by both the European Union and the United States government, with over 60% of global supply concentrated in China, creating a growing need for diversified, certified supply sources.
Antimony is a key material in next-generation sodium-ion batteries and lead-acid battery reinforcement, demand is rising sharply with the global energy transition.
Antimony trioxide (Sb₂O₃) is the world's primary flame retardant synergist, used across electronics, textiles, plastics, and construction materials globally.
Antimony alloys are critical in armour-piercing munitions, infrared detectors, and semiconductor devices, driving consistent demand from defence and tech sectors.
With China dominating global supply, buyers in Europe, the Americas, and Asia are actively seeking reliable, certified alternative sources, PATC is positioned to fill this gap.
Antimony prices have surged in recent years driven by export restrictions and booming demand. Early supply agreements offer significant upside for buyers and investors.
Our ore is independently analysed by EMRA, a government-accredited laboratory, providing buyers with the documentation needed for regulatory compliance and due diligence.
Government-certified purity & composition
Our Antimony ore was analysed by two independent methods at the Egyptian Mineral Resources Authority (EMRA) Central Laboratories, both XRF elemental analysis and XRD mineralogical phase identification.
