Antimony, a silvery-white metalloid, might not be a household name, but it plays a crucial role in our modern world.It's a key ingredient in military tech, batteries, and semiconductors.And now, a global antimony crisis may be looming as demand far outstrips supply...This obscure metal has become a strategic linchpin in modern warfare – and right now, China holds all the cards.And today, we're looking at two companies that could help the West break free from China's stranglehold on this key resource.#1 Military Metals (CSE: MILI, OTCQB: MILIF)Canadian junior miner Military Metals wasted no time jumping into this game with a series of major antimony acquisitions on two continents–Europe and North America.They’re hoping to help turn the tables on Chinese domination, and they’re moving quickly to do so.Military Metals recently announced that it has purchased one of Europe’s largest antimony deposits in Slovakia with a historical resource.One of the properties acquired is Trojarova. This is a Soviet-era resource with an initial discovery from the 1950s and prior development in the ‘80s and ‘90s. It’s already seen two phases of exploration. According to Military Metals CEO Scott Eldridge, the Slovakian government’s earlier exploration was halted before they reached the richest part of the deposit.Source: Military MetalsBack then, the Cold War was winding down, and what would follow next was a destocking and the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) between the Soviets and the United States. Antimony was no longer critical.That’s all changed now. The world is at war.And Trojarova, with a historical resource of over 60,998.4 tons of antimony of in situ value worth around $2 billion at today’s spot prices—could become a military kingmaker
