Analyst Report: Locksley’s US Strategy Strengthens Critical Minerals Position

Description:

Locksley Resources (ASX:LKY,OTQB:LKYRF,FSE: X5L) has strengthened its position in the US critical minerals sector through a dual strategy that could reduce funding risk and enhance shareholder value, according to a market update from Peak Asset Management.


The company signed a binding research agreement with Rice University to develop green antimony processing and energy storage technologies, and engaged Washington-based advisory firm GreenMet to advance its Mojave critical minerals project into US federal programs.

Key Report Highlights

  • Rice University partnership: For investors, the Rice partnership addresses a structural gap: the absence of US antimony processing capacity. With Locksley committing US$550,000 over 12 months, the collaboration is designed to generate jointly owned intellectual property in both environmentally friendly processing and advanced battery applications. This gives the company a potential first-mover advantage in establishing a sovereign supply of antimony, a metal critical to defense and energy technologies.
  • GreenMet engagement: GreenMet’s mandate is equally significant for shareholders. By positioning Mojave within the Defence Production Act and Department of Energy initiatives, Locksley could gain access to grants, loans and offtake agreements.
  • Near-term catalysts: Peak Asset Management notes the near-term catalysts include maiden drilling results in September and over US$1 billion in US federal critical minerals funding rounds expected later this year. Combined with favorable market dynamics – antimony prices around US$60,000/t and forecast deficits in rare earths like neodymium-praseodymium – Locksley’s dual strategy offers investors exposure to a tightly supplied market with strong policy tailwinds.
  • Investor implications: For shareholders, these moves substantially de-risk Locksley’s downstream strategy. Access to non-dilutive US funding reduces the likelihood of equity dilution, preserving shareholder value. The absence of domestic antimony production in the US creates a first-mover advantage for Mojave, while alignment with US defense and energy policy priorities enhances the project’s strategic profile. At the same time, exposure to high antimony prices and looming rare earth supply deficits offers leverage to favorable commodity markets.
