Big drop. False reason. Company responds. Stock going back up.
We've had a WONDERFUL rise in this stock. Even since January 1, when we closed 12.31 at $5.04, we are up 90% in January. Well ...70% now, thanks to a drop today. But, it is recovering already and the drop seems to have been based on a false story. See the company release this morning.
DALLAS, TX / ACCESS Newswire / January 29, 2026 / United States Antimony Corporation (“USAC,” “US Antimony,” or the “Company”), (NYSE American: UAMY) (NYSE Texas: UAMY), is a leading producer and processor of antimony, zeolite, and other critical minerals, and the only fully integrated antimony company in the world outside of China and Russia.
Yesterday’s Reuters article that was released to the public, is completely inaccurate, misleading, and inconsistent with the facts as they relate to United States Antimony Corporation and the overall antimony and critical minerals business. The article represents a pattern of speculative reporting that mischaracterizes U.S. government policy and creates unnecessary confusion in the world markets.
U.S. Antimony maintains binding, long-term relationships and contractual arrangements with U.S. government agencies that remain fully in effect. There has been no change to our agreements, no change to government obligations, and no impact to our current operations or future outlook.
Any suggestion that federal support for domestic antimony supply has weakened is simply incorrect. Antimony remains a designated critical mineral for U.S. national security, and U.S. Antimony is the only producer of finished antimony products in the Western Hemisphere. There is no alternative domestic or regional source capable of supplying this material at scale.
We remain fully aligned with our government partners and focused on executing our mission: securing a reliable, domestic antimony supply chain for defense, infrastructure, and advanced manufacturing. Our operational momentum, commercial trajectory, and long-term visibility remain strong and unwavering.
The Energy Department told Reuters in a statement after the story was published that the article was "false and relies on unnamed sources that are either misinformed or deliberately misleading." The statement did not elaborate on what errors the department said it had found.
Commenting on today’s announcement, Mr. Gary C. Evans, Chairman and CEO of USAC stated, “It is unfortunate that we live in an era of false and misleading journalism that seems to have no checks and balances. This type of false journalism by Reuters yesterday unfortunately has become way too acceptable in our society. So, what can we do about it? Quit reading Reuters news articles. And I for one, will refuse any future interviews with this news agency for what I consider a gross misconduct of true and fair journalism.”
