The US Army is addressing ammunition shortages by partnering with Idaho National Laboratories to develop mobile critical material refineries. These units will refine raw materials like antimony trisulfide, crucial for primer production, directly at manufacturing or mining sites, reducing reliance on foreign sources like China and bolstering both military and civilian ammo supply.

The US Army, in partnership with Idaho National Laboratories, has developed the first mobile critical material refinery. This initiative aims to address global ammunition shortages by enabling on-site refinement of raw materials like antimony trisulfide, crucial for primer and bullet alloy production. The mobile refinery can be transported to various locations, enhancing domestic production capabilities and reducing reliance on foreign sources.
