Stillwater Critical Minerals Responds to Executive Order on Domestic Mining

Vancouver-based Stillwater Critical Minerals Corp. welcomes a new Executive Order by U.S. President Donald J. Trump aimed at accelerating American mineral production. Signed on March 20, 2025, the order seeks to reduce the United States' dependence on foreign minerals, elevating the strategic importance of domestic mining.

This directive emphasizes funding for domestic projects and streamlining regulations. David Copley, from Newmont Mining, will oversee the initiative under the National Energy Dominance Council. Stillwater's CEO, Michael Rowley, highlighted that this aligns well with the company's endeavors at their Stillwater West project in Montana, known for its diverse mineral resources, including copper and gold.

The Executive Order is poised to enhance Stillwater's operations, offering potential avenues for funding and regulatory reforms, thereby facilitating their mission to expedite project development.
