Locksley Resources Secures A$17M for U.S. Critical Minerals Supply Chain

Locksley Resources raises A$17M to develop U.S. critical minerals supply chain for rare earth elements and antimony, advancing mine-to-market strategy with Rice University collaboration.

This development represents a significant step toward strengthening U.S. domestic supply chains for critical minerals, particularly rare earth elements and antimony, which are essential for modern technologies including renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, and defense applications. Currently, the U.S. relies heavily on imports for these strategic materials, creating supply chain vulnerabilities and geopolitical dependencies. Locksley's mine-to-market approach, supported by Rice University's DeepSolv processing technology, could help reduce this dependency while creating domestic jobs and supporting energy transition goals. For investors, this signals growing institutional confidence in critical minerals projects and the potential for substantial returns as demand for these materials continues to surge globally.
