U.S. Antimony announces mill site for antimony silver deposit

United States Antimony Corporation announced Monday that Antimony de Mexico S. A. de C. V. (a wholly owned subsidiary of United States Antimony Corp, "USAC") has leased a mill site to process rock from the Coahuila antimony and silver deposit in the State of Queretaro, Mexico.

A Mexican Government Monograph has reported a resource of 1,000,000 metric tons having a grade of 1.8% antimony and 8.1 ounces of silver per ton that can be mined by open pit methods.

The mill site includes more than 120 acres and is close to the town of Vizarron de Montes. It has electricity, tailings pond areas, convenient access, water, and is convenient to a work force and supplies. Rock from the mine and other custom ore can be easily hauled to the mill site primarily over an asphalt highway.

Permitting of the mine and mill site will begin immediately. Components for the crushing plant and flotation mill are nearing completion at the USAC antimony plant in Montana. Installation of the plant at Vizarron is expected during the first quarter of 2007.

The Company plans to play a strategic role in the supply of antimony to the United States where it is the only significant domestic producer.
