What Are Strategic Metals ?

About

At SMG, we develop and advance strategic metals projects that support global infrastructure, industrial supply chains, and the energy transition.

Our portfolio focuses on commodities with strong long-term demand fundamentals and clear pathways for responsible development.

Antimony

Antimony is a strategic metal used in specialty alloys, flame retardants, and energy-related applications. Supply is highly concentrated globally, making secure and reliable sources increasingly important. Our focus is on advancing antimony assets with the potential to support long-term industrial demand and supply security.

Lithium

Lithium is a critical input for energy storage and advanced battery systems. Demand continues to be driven by electrification and technology adoption. We are advancing lithium assets with an emphasis on scalability, jurisdictional stability, and alignment with long-term supply fundamentals.

Tantalum (Tantalite)

Tantalum is a specialty metal used in high-performance electronics, aerospace, and advanced manufacturing. Its unique physical properties and limited supply base make it strategically important. We evaluate and advance tantalum-bearing assets that complement broader strategic metals development.

Tungsten

Tungsten is a strategic metal valued for its exceptional hardness, high melting point, and resistance to extreme temperatures. It is used in industrial tooling, aerospace, defense, and advanced manufacturing. We evaluate and advance tungsten assets with the potential to support long-term industrial demand and supply security.

Tin

Tin is an essential industrial metal used in soldering, electronics, protective coatings, and advanced manufacturing. Its role in electronic components and electrical infrastructure supports continued demand across global technology supply chains. We focus on advancing tin assets aligned with long-term demand fundamentals and responsible development.

Copper

Copper is a foundational industrial metal critical to electrical infrastructure, power generation, construction, and electrification. Its exceptional electrical conductivity makes it essential to modern energy systems and global infrastructure development. We advance copper assets with a focus on long-term demand, scalable development, and responsible resource management.
