Discharge Permit for Idaho's Stibnite Gold Project Approved by Army Corps of Engineers
- The final Section 404 permit under the Clean Water Act for Idaho's Stibnite Gold Project was granted on May 19, 2025, by the federal agency responsible for water resource regulation and infrastructure.
- This decision followed eight years of interagency federal permitting and coincided with the Trump Administration's 2025 Executive Order to boost American mineral production.
- The project intends to produce gold, silver, and the only domestic source of antimony, aiming to restore the site, improve environmental conditions, and create about 550 jobs.
- The Stibnite Gold Project holds 148 million pounds of antimony, enough to supply 35% of U.S. demand, especially critical after China cut global antimony exports in late 2024.
- With state permits and financing pending, the permit enables progress toward construction and suggests enhanced U.S. mineral security and regional economic benefits.
