United States Antimony Corporation (“USAC”, NYSE MKT “UAMY”) reported the following sales estimates for July 2016:

           
Product         July
Antimony pounds         173,498
BRZ zeolite tons         1,192
Gold from Australia ounces         76.6
       

During the month of July, the Rotterdam price per metric for antimony firmed from $6,575.00 ($2.98 per pound) to $6,950.00 ($3.15 per pound) by the end of the month, an increase of $375.00 per ton ($0.17 per pound). Mexican mine production is being ramped up to provide more smelter feed to Madero.

The Environmental Permit for the cyanide leach plant at the Puerto Blanco mill site in Guanajuato, Mexico is being reviewed by SEMARNAT (the Mexican equivalent of the EPA). When SEMARNAT issues the permit the mill will recover gold and silver from the tailings of the flotation mill. An additional mill test was conducted on approximately 50 metric tons as follows:

CEO John Lawrence said, “The prices of antimony, gold, and silver since the first of the year are up 35.3%, 24.4%, and 41.6% respectively. The estimated recovered value of $155.96 per metric ton from the Los Juarez bulk mineable open pit is regarded as excellent. The Company should have a reply from SEMARNAT on the permit within the next 5-6 weeks.”
