“With a modest upgrade, the Sunshine Refinery could once again deliver refined silver to support solar and biomedical needs, as well as cathode copper for electrification of a greener economy. Additionally, a high-capacity antimony plant could be rebuilt to treat high-grade antimony concentrates produced at Sunshine, elsewhere in Idaho, and domestically to support critical strategic mineral demands.”
