ASX Announcement — 22 June 2026
Resolution Minerals Limited (ASX: RML; OTCQB: RLMLF) has been admitted as a member of the US Defense Industrial Base Consortium (DIBC), strengthening its access to US defense supply-chain initiatives and potential funding opportunities as it advances its antimony and tungsten strategy.
The DIBC is supported by the US Department of Defense and operates under an Other Transaction Authority framework. Its approximately 1,500 member organisations span government, industry, academia and emerging suppliers working to strengthen domestic industrial capacity and national-security supply chains.
Why the membership matters
- Funding access: membership provides a channel to grant and other funding programs targeting strategic materials and defense supply-chain resilience.
- Government engagement: Resolution can collaborate more closely with the Department of Defense, other agencies, research institutions and industry participants.
- Active application: the company has submitted a funding application related to its tungsten development strategy.
- Antimony pathway: Resolution is evaluating additional opportunities that could support its US antimony supply-chain initiatives.
Both antimony and tungsten are recognised as critical minerals by the US Government because of their importance in defense, aerospace, energy and advanced manufacturing. Resolution's Horse Heaven Project in Idaho gives the company direct exposure to both materials in a US jurisdiction.
CEO of US Operations Craig Lindsay described the admission as an important milestone in Resolution's strategy to help establish secure domestic supplies of antimony and tungsten.
The company said it will continue to evaluate government-supported funding, strategic partnerships and other initiatives while progressing drilling at Horse Heaven.
