Strategic Minerals said the U.S. Department of War has invested $9.25 million in its wholly owned subsidiary Cornwall Resources Limited to accelerate the company’s Redmoor tungsten-copper-tin project in Cornwall, UK.

According to Mining.com, the funding is intended to cover work through all feasibility studies and move the project toward a final investment decision for mining.

The company said Redmoor is Europe’s highest-grade, undeveloped tungsten resource, and described tungsten as a dense metal used in superalloys for applications including turbine blades, rocket engine nozzles, and armor-piercing military ammunition.

Strategic Minerals added that the investment is non-dilutive and has no restrictions on future funding or offtakes, framing it as support for a secure allied tungsten supply for U.S. and allied advanced manufacturing, defense, and critical minerals supply chains.
