SUMMARY: This Notice is to inform the public that the Export-Import 
Bank of the United States (``EXIM'') has received an application for 
final commitment for a long-term loan or financial guarantee in excess 
of $100 million. Consistent with EXIM's mandate to strengthen U.S. 
economic competitiveness and national security, the proposed 
transaction supports the development of critical mineral resources 
essential to resilient domestic supply chains and advanced 
manufacturing. Comments received within the comment period specified 
below will be presented to the EXIM Board of Directors prior to final

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Reference: AP768324XX.
    Purpose and Use: Brief description of the purpose of the 
transaction: To finance the redevelopment of gold-antimony-silver-
tungsten critical mineral deposits in the Stibnite-Yellow Pine district 
of central Idaho under EXIM's Make More in America initiative.
    This project advances U.S. leadership in critical minerals by 
expanding domestic resource development for materials that are 
foundational to defense systems, energy technologies, and advanced 
manufacturing.
    The transaction is expected to enhance supply chain resilience, 
reduce reliance on foreign sources for strategic minerals--particularly 
antimony--and support high-quality U.S. jobs.
    Brief non-proprietary description of the anticipated use of the 
items being exported: The financing will be used for domestic purposes 
and will result in the export of gold dor[eacute] bars and antimony 
concentrate to overseas processing facilities. These materials will be 
refined into gold bullion and processed into antimony metal and 
derivative products that serve as essential inputs for U.S. industrial 
and national security applications. Applications for antimony include 
semiconductors and lead-acid batteries. As domestic antimony processing 
becomes available, concentrate will be treated domestically.
    Parties:
    Principal Supplier: Various U.S. Entities.
    Obligor: Perpetua Resources Idaho Inc.
    Guarantor(s): Perpetua Resources Corp.
    Description of Items Being Exported: The items being exported will 
be gold dor[eacute] and antimony concentrate.
    Information on Decision: Information on the final decision for this 
transaction will be available in the ``Summary Minutes of Meetings of 
Board of Directors'' on <a href="https://www.exim.gov/news/meeting-minutes">https://www.exim.gov/news/meeting-minutes</a>.
    Confidential Information: Please note that this notice does not 
include confidential or proprietary business information; information 
which, if disclosed, would violate the Trade Secrets Act; or 
information which would jeopardize jobs in the United
