CleanTech Highlights Antimony at El Triunfo Project in Bolivia, Drill Core Assays Up to 1% Antimony
CleanTech Vanadium Mining Corp (OTCQB: CTVFF) has identified multiple antimony occurrences in drill core samples from its El Triunfo gold and antimony project, located 75 km east of La Paz, Bolivia. Nine diamond-drill-holes from 2020 and 2022 showed several intersections of antimony grading above 0.1%, with Hole TR010 containing a notable 1.2-meter intersection grading over 1% antimony.
The discovery gains significance as antimony prices have surged over 250% since January 2024, reaching US$40,000 per ton in 2025. This price increase follows China's export restrictions on critical minerals to the United States. Currently, Bolivia produces approximately 3,000 metric tons of antimony annually, representing 3.6% of global supply, while China dominates with 50% of total production.
CleanTech Vanadium Mining Corp (OTCQB: CTVFF) ha identificato molteplici occorrenze di antimonio nei campioni di carotaggio del suo progetto di oro e antimonio El Triunfo, situato a 75 km a est di La Paz, Bolivia. Nove fori di perforazione a diamante realizzati nel 2020 e nel 2022 hanno mostrato diverse intersezioni di antimonio con gradi superiori allo 0,1%, con il foro TR010 che presenta un'intersezione notevole di 1,2 metri con un grado superiore all'1% di antimonio.
Questa scoperta acquista significato poiché i prezzi dell'antimonio sono aumentati di oltre 250% da gennaio 2024, raggiungendo 40.000 USD per tonnellata nel 2025. Questo aumento dei prezzi segue le restrizioni all'esportazione della Cina sui minerali critici verso gli Stati Uniti. Attualmente, la Bolivia produce circa 3.000 tonnellate metriche di antimonio all'anno, rappresentando il 3,6% dell'offerta globale, mentre la Cina domina con il 50% della produzione totale.
CleanTech Vanadium Mining Corp (OTCQB: CTVFF) ha identificado múltiples ocurrencias de antimonio en muestras de núcleos de perforación de su proyecto de oro y antimonio El Triunfo, ubicado a 75 km al este de La Paz, Bolivia. Nueve perforaciones diamantinas de 2020 y 2022 mostraron varias intersecciones de antimonio con grados superiores al 0,1%, siendo el agujero TR010 el que contiene una intersección notable de 1,2 metros con un grado superior al 1% de antimonio.
Este descubrimiento cobra importancia ya que los precios del antimonio han aumentado más de 250% desde enero de 2024, alcanzando 40,000 USD por tonelada en 2025. Este aumento de precios sigue a las restricciones de exportación de China sobre minerales críticos hacia los Estados Unidos. Actualmente, Bolivia produce aproximadamente 3,000 toneladas métricas de antimonio anualmente, representando el 3,6% de la oferta global, mientras que China domina con el 50% de la producción total.
클린테크 바나듐 마이닝 코퍼레이션 (OTCQB: CTVFF)은 볼리비아 라파즈에서 동쪽으로 75km 떨어진 엘 트리운포 금 및 안티몬 프로젝트의 시추 코어 샘플에서 여러 안티몬 발생을 확인했습니다. 2020년과 2022년의 다이아몬드 시추공 9개가 0.1% 이상의 안티몬 함량을 가진 여러 교차점을 보여주었으며, TR010 구멍은 1% 이상의 안티몬 함량을 가진 1.2미터의 주목할 만한 교차점을 포함하고 있습니다.
이 발견은 안티몬 가격이 2024년 1월 이후 250% 이상 급등하여 2025년 톤당 40,000달러에 도달했기 때문에 중요성을 더합니다. 이 가격 상승은 중국의 미국에 대한 주요 광물 수출 제한에 따른 것입니다. 현재 볼리비아는 연간 약 3,000미터 톤의 안티몬을 생산하고 있으며, 이는 전 세계 공급의 3.6%를 차지하고 있으며, 중국이 전체 생산의 50%를 차지하고 있습니다.
CleanTech Vanadium Mining Corp (OTCQB: CTVFF) a identifié plusieurs occurrences d'antimoine dans des échantillons de carottes de forage de son projet d'or et d'antimoine El Triunfo, situé à 75 km à l'est de La Paz, en Bolivie. Neuf trous de forage diamant réalisés en 2020 et 2022 ont montré plusieurs intersections d'antimoine avec des teneurs supérieures à 0,1%, le trou TR010 contenant une intersection notable de 1,2 mètre avec une teneur supérieure à 1% d'antimoine.
Cette découverte prend de l'importance alors que les prix de l'antimoine ont augmenté de plus de 250% depuis janvier 2024, atteignant 40 000 USD par tonne en 2025. Cette augmentation des prix fait suite aux restrictions d'exportation de la Chine sur les minéraux critiques vers les États-Unis. Actuellement, la Bolivie produit environ 3 000 tonnes métriques d'antimoine par an, représentant 3,6% de l'offre mondiale, tandis que la Chine domine avec 50% de la production totale.

Neun Diamantbohrlöcher aus den Jahren 2020 und 2022 zeigten mehrere Schnittstellen mit Antimongehalten über 0,1%, wobei das Loch TR010 eine bemerkenswerte Schnittstelle von 1,2 Metern mit über 1% Antimon aufwies.
Diese Entdeckung gewinnt an Bedeutung, da die Antimonpreise seit Januar 2024 um über 250% gestiegen sind und 2025 40.000 USD pro Tonne erreicht haben. Dieser Preisanstieg folgt den Exportbeschränkungen Chinas für kritische Mineralien in die Vereinigten Staaten. Derzeit produziert Bolivien jährlich etwa 3.000 metrische Tonnen Antimon, was 3,6% des globalen Angebots entspricht, während China mit 50% der Gesamtproduktion dominiert.

The Company is highly encouraged by the antimony results and will continue to evaluate this potential by reviewing and assaying prior historic drill core. The Company is optimistic about exploring Triunfo Project's potential to meet the increasing demand in critical sectors like energy storage, military and industrial alloy manufacturing.
Antimony price has reached over US
Antimony is a crucial material in flame retardants, lead-acid batteries, ammunition, and various metal alloys critical for industrial and defense applications.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey2, global annual antimony production was approximately 83,000 metric tons in 2023. China currently dominates global antimony supply, accounting for around

Location & Geology
The Triunfo Project lies within Bolivia's Cordillera Real, an area with complex geology including Paleozoic metamorphic and igneous formations. This region has experienced multiple tectonic and orogenic (mountain-building) events, creating fractures and faults that host hydrothermal mineral deposits. Below information is based on the publications from Bolivian Mining Ministry, COMIBOL reports, International Mining Company S.A. reports and Company estimates.
Nearby Gold Mineralized Zones
Illimani Zone (Located 11 kilometers southeast of Triunfo Project): Hosts quartz veins located above 5,000 meters. Active cooperatives and Chinese companies operate in the area.
Palca Zone (Located 11.6 km west of Triunfo Project): Features ancient mine workings (dating to the Spanish era) in Ordovician-Silurian metamorphic rocks. Currently, only small-scale alluvial operations continue in the main valley.
Incachaca Zone (Located 27 kilometers to the northwest from Triunfo Project): Known for gold with associated lead, zinc, and copper mineralization. Cooperatives actively work Ordovician-Silurian host rocks, similar to those at Triunfo Project.
Alluvial Gold Deposits
Two active alluvial gold-producing areas lie in the lower valley draining from Illimani. Local mining cooperatives operate these deposits.
Antimony Mineralized Zones
Several old properties (Located 4 - 5 kilometers southwest of Triunfo Project): These antimony mines produced antimony from Paleozoic rocks.
Wolfram Mineralized Zones
Bolsa Negra Zone (Located 5 km east of the Triunfo Project): Contains quartz veins with wolfram, tin, lead, zinc, and minor gold in Ordovician-Silurian rocks.
La Chojlla Mine (Located north of Triunfo Project, at a distance of 17 kilometers): The mine produces tin, wolfram, lead, and zinc. Mineralization is in granite intrusions cutting Ordovician rocks.
QA/QC
An industry standard Quality Assurance/Quality Control program was used during the various drill campaigns. All core and other samples were split with half being bagged, labelled and shipped directly to the laboratory. The other
