America’s Largest Tungsten Mine Is Finally Back

The U.S. military can’t live without tungsten, but China controls 84% of the global supply. To combat this threat, the government is banning tungsten imports from adversaries and partnering with domestic mineral operations like United States Tungsten.

These new policies are creating a once-in-a-generation opportunity, and United States Tungsten is taking advantage of it. They’re reviving what was once America’s largest tungsten mine, home to 1 million tons of tungsten worth $450M.

That’s $450M in instant demand potential, because the U.S. military is actively looking for it. 

What could make it even more significant is that the U.S. government is one of the most reliable customers in the world. A partnership would increase the likelihood of long-term domestic contracts.

Added military spending would only create more of this demand. And good news: the President has called for an even bigger, $1.5T military budget in 2027. 

You can get a piece of this 1-million-ton mine right before they start digging. Become a United States Tungsten shareholder and get up to 23% bonus shares
