Everyone keeps saying it is a ban but it is not.
Also get nervous when they talk about prices surging on a commodity that is controlled by China and Russia

Much of the Sb in Oz comes from Costerville which is operated by Mandalay Resources
Unfortunately they are on the TSE but looks like you can trade them on the OTC Pink market MNDJF.
However Sb production has also fallen
There is also the Hillgrove Gold mine that is now owned by Larvotto Resources (ASX:LRV). Red River Resources (RVR) used to own Hillgrove before it went into administration.
They are putting a target of 5.4KT of Sb which is much more than Costerville
Shares of LRV have already pumped to market cap of 128m in a week.
Personally I prefer Mandalay as I think the orebody for Hillgrove is hard to visualize. And also I wonder why RVR could not make much progress at Hillgrove.
Also I'd like my dessert now and not in 2026!
