United States Antimony Corporation ("USAC", NYSE MKT "UAMY") reported an unaudited loss of $158,813 on revenues of $2,558,356 for the third quarter of 2013.

Antimony production from Mexico grew by 168% during the third quarter of 2013 compared to that of 2012. Antimony prices have stabilized at the $4.70 per pound of metal level.

  • The increase in Mexican production has come from five operating properties that ship direct furnace feed to USAC's Madero smelter.
  • In addition, the Guadalupe property provides mill feed for the Puerto Blanco flotation mill. Guadalupe has been shipping older dump rock that has an average recovered grade of 2.6% antimony. Underground mining will begin this week and is expected to produce more mill feed at a higher grade.
  • Also, the Soyatal property is currently feeding the oxide circuit at Puerto Blanco.

The Mexican smelter at Madero is running at 100% of capacity. Plans are underway to increase its capacity significantly.

At the Bear River Zeolite operation in Idaho, the profit during Q3 was $167,951 compared to a loss of $18,433 during the same period in 2012. The nine month profit for 2013 was $276,149 compared to $126,238 for the same period in 2012. New orders this fourth quarter are expected to boost production.

John Lawrence, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The rapid growth of USAC's Mexican production in the third quarter is accelerating in the fourth quarter."
