Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On March 17, 2025, a two-container international shipment of approximately fifty (50) tons of stibnite (antimony) ore, departed the port of loading in Melbourne, Australia, with the final destination and port of discharge to be at the Port of Manzanilla, Mexico for ultimate delivery to the United States Antimony Corporation (“the Company”) Madero Smelter. The Company made partial payment on the value of the shipment’s invoice, equaling $715,413 USD, ahead of the actual time of departure as called for under the existing contract. Evergreen Shipping Agency (Australia) PTY Ltd., the shipping agency, routed the vessel through The Port of Ningbo-Zhoushan in China. The vessel’s actual time of arrival in Ningbo was April 14, 2025. All necessary payments and required paperwork were properly accounted for. Chinese Customs withheld these two containers carrying stibnite (antimony) ore for approximately eighty-two (82) days with no apparent reason provided to all parties involved.

The Company has made exhaustive efforts in its attempt to discover any and all information possible regarding this unauthorized hold on our property, but to no avail.

On June 23, 2025, the Company was informed that Chinese Customs finally agreed to release the containers on the condition that they be returned to their point of origin/loading dock in Australia. The Chinese Customs would not release the shipment to their intended final destination to the Port of Manzanillo for their final delivery location at the Company’s Madero Smelter. The Company can only assume this was either due to the contents being antimony ore, or the owner name, US Antimony Corporation, or possibly both. China previously announced, back in September of last year, a ban on all shipments of antimony ore and finished products originating from China and exported to any country in the world, including the United States.

The information in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. This Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K will not be deemed an admission as the materiality of any information in this Item 7.01 that is required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD.
