Decade Acquires Antimony Claim
Decade Resources (TSXV: DEC) has staked 1,742 hectares covering a major shear structure containing antimony mineral (stibnite) in BC's Golden Triangle area. The property, located 40km NE of Stewart BC, features a quartz-stibnite vein system up to 5 meters wide, traced over 300 meters.
The mineralization includes zones up to 15 meters wide with massive stibnite and arsenopyrite pockets. Historical sampling from 2004 showed 6 out of 8 grab samples exceeded limits for Antimony, with silver values ranging from 12.1 to 65 g/t.
Antimony, designated as a critical mineral by the Canadian government, is important for flame retardants, batteries, and defense applications. The global antimony market is projected to grow at 5.5% CAGR from 2023-2030. China, controlling 70% of global supply, has banned exports to the United States.

Stewart, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 13, 2025) - Decade Resources Ltd (TSXV: DEC) ("Decade") reports that it staked 1742 ha covering a major shear structure hosting antimony mineral (stibnite) in the Golden Triangle area of BC. The property is located 40km NE of Stewart BC within the Bowser Basin sediments.
The mineralization was discovered by E. Kruchkowski. President of the Company in 2004 while working as a consultant for a junior company. The lack of appreciable precious metals in the shear resulted in the claim being dropped. With the recent interest in antimony properties, the Company acquired the project area to evaluate for Antimony content.
According to the ARIS report on this shear: "A strong quartz-stibnite vein system up to 5 meters wide shear zone has been traced on the ground over a strike length of 300 meters based on aerial view extending beyond the 300 meters that was sampled. The zone consists of individual 2-5 meter wide brecciated zones with quartz filling the voids between clasts. Locally the zone will be entirely quartz filled. Numerous splays to the shear zone extend the overall width of the zone up to 15 meters in several places. In these locations, veins up to 4-5 meters wide, separated by weakly brecciated argillite form the east and west walls to the zones. Locally massive stibnite and arsenopyrite form pockets and stringers of mineralization that is up to 15-20 cm wide within the breccias. Pyrite is common in the brecciated argillite but is not common in the quartz."
Out of 8 grab samples taken in 2004 in the vicinity of the shears,6 analyzed over limits for Antimony and arsenic (all samples of heavily mineralized shear). Silver values ranged from 12.1 to a high of 65 g/t.
Antimony which is considered a critical mineral by the Government of Canada, is a mineral primarily used as a flame retardant and alloying agent in lead-acid batteries, ammunition, and semiconductors. It also has strategic applications in defense and energy storage technologies, making it a high-priority material for many governments. The global antimony market is forecasted to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of
China which dominates global antimony production, accounting for over
