Trigg's MD predicts tripling of resources - Australia’s highest-grade primary antimony deposit almost certain to grow, page-12

With rising geopolitical tensions, particularly the recent conflict between India and Pakistan, reports have emerged that Chinese fighter jets successfully downed several Indian aircraft. This is expected to lead to a surge in demand for Chinese military equipment, especially the J-10C, which costs around $40 million per unit compared to the $300 million Rafale jets. As China's domestic antimony supply is already insufficient to meet internal demand, this growing military production will likely intensify the need for external sources of antimony.
