Svedlar Processing Facility
October 2022, Molten Metals announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Slovak Antimony Corp., has signed a lease for a processing facility at Svedlar in Eastern Slovakia.
The lease covers some 20% of the Svedlar complex, which was constructed as part of a complex to mine and process quartz. It operated from the early 1980s until the mid-1990s and employed over 200 people at its peak of operations.
The Svedlar Plant is located some 10 km north of the Tienesgrund license and 20 kms from the Bear Creek Tin mine at Hnilec. The nearest substantial town is Spisska Nova Ves, some 30 kms to the north.
Svedlar is a community of around 2,100 people and is located on a railway line between Banska Bystrica-Margecany.
The lease has a term of two years, extendable for four.
