Military Metals CEO Interview: Developing Europe’s Largest Antimony Deposit (Trojárová Project) (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF)
Just watched this fresh interview with Military Metals (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) CEO Scott Eldridge on-site at the Trojárová Antimony-Gold Project in Slovakia. The company is advancing what could become Europe’s largest antimony deposit — strategically important given China’s export restrictions and surging demand for this critical mineral (used in military applications, flame retardants, batteries, and more).

Key highlights from the interview:
- Project Overview: Trojárová is located just 30 minutes outside Bratislava. It has a long mining history (Soviet-era exploration in the 1980s for ammunition production) and was largely dormant after the Cold War.
- Current Status: Military Metals acquired the project about two years ago. They’ve completed 63 historical drill holes + 7 new ones, with recent drilling showing strong intercepts (e.g., multi-meter zones of 4%+ antimony and gold credits).
- Strategic Importance: Antimony prices spiked dramatically (from ~$12k to $60k per ton) after China’s export curbs. The project has potential to supply up to 30% of Europe’s antimony demand — a major step toward EU supply chain security.
- Development Plans: Low capex estimated at ~$120 million. Working toward a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate, Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), and eventual feasibility study. Existing underground adits are being modernized.
- Advantages: EU jurisdiction (potential grants and offtake interest), proximity to markets, and dual antimony-gold mineralization.
- CEO Takeaways: Emphasis on responsible development, geopolitical tailwinds, and positioning Military Metals as a key Western supplier of this “military metal.”
