11,485,716 shares of our common stock by the selling stockholders,
including 5,742,858 shares of our common stock that are issuable

not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares. We will
receive proceeds from any cash exercise of the warrants, which, if
exercised in cash with respect to all of the 5,742,858 shares of
common stock offered hereby, would result in gross proceeds to us
of $2.64 million; however, we cannot predict when and in what
amounts or if the warrants will be exercised and there can be no
assurance the warrants will be exercised for cash, in which case we
would not receive any cash proceeds.
We
have agreed to bear all of the expenses incurred in connection with
the registration of these shares. The selling stockholders will pay
or assume discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling
brokers or dealer managers, if any, incurred for the sale of shares
of our common stock.
The
selling stockholders identified in this prospectus may offer the
shares from time to time through public or private transactions at
prevailing market prices, at prices related to prevailing market
prices or at privately negotiated prices. For additional
information on the methods of sale that may be used by the selling
stockholders, see the section entitled “Plan of
Distribution” on page 12. For a list of the selling
stockholders, see the section entitled “Selling
Stockholders” on page 9.
We
may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time by filing
amendments or supplements as required. You should read the entire
prospectus and any amendments or supplements carefully before you
make your investment decision.

“UAMY”. The last reported sales price of our common
stock on the NYSE American on September 8, 2020 was $0.50 per

stock.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this
prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information
that you should consider before deciding to invest in our common
stock. You should read this entire prospectus
carefully, including the information in our filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, incorporated by

Overview
United
States Antimony Corporation, or USAC, was incorporated in Montana
in January 1970 to mine and produce antimony products. In December
1983, we suspended antimony mining operations but continued to
produce antimony products from domestic and foreign sources. In
April 1998, we formed United States Antimony SA de CV or USAMSA, to
mine and smelt antimony in Mexico. Bear River Zeolite Company or
BRZ, was incorporated in 2000, and it is mining and producing
zeolite in southeastern Idaho. On August 19, 2005, USAC formed
Antimonio de Mexico, S. A. de C. V. to explore and develop antimony
and silver deposits in Mexico. Our principal business is the
production and sale of antimony, silver, gold, and zeolite
products. On May 16, 2012, we started trading on the NYSE MKT (now
NYSE AMERICAN) under the symbol UAMY.

RISK FACTORS
Investing
in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before
investing in our common stock, you should consider carefully the
risks and uncertainties discussed under “Risk Factors”
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2019 and in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters
ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, which are incorporated by
reference herein in their entirety. If any of the risks
incorporated by reference herein occur, our business, financial
condition, results of operations and future growth prospects could
be materially and adversely affected. In these circumstances, the
market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose
all or part of your investment.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this
prospectus include forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and
Section 21E of the Exchange Act that relate to future events or our
future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results,
levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ
materially from any future results, levels of activity, performance
or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking
statements. The sections in our periodic reports, including our
Annual Reports on Form 10-K, entitled “Business,”
“Risk Factors,” and “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations,” as well as other sections in this prospectus and
the documents or reports incorporated by reference in this
prospectus, discuss some of the risks and uncertainties that could
contribute to these differences. Words such as
“believe,” “expect,”
“anticipate,” “estimate,”
“intend,” “may,” “plan,”
“potential,” “predict,”
“project,” “targets,” “likely,”
“will,” “would,” “could,”
“should,” “continue,” and similar
expressions or phrases, or the negative of those expressions or
phrases, are intended to identify forward-looking statements,
although not all forward-looking statements contain these
identifying words. You should carefully review and consider our
forward-looking statements in light of those risks and
uncertainties as you read this prospectus and documents
incorporated by reference into this prospectus. We undertake no
obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking
statement, whether as a result of new information, future
developments or otherwise.
DESCRIPTION OF PRIVATE PLACEMENT
On July 23, 2020, we entered into a securities
purchase agreement with the selling stockholders for the issuance
and sale of an aggregate of 5,742,858 units, each unit consisting
of (i) one share of our common stock, and (ii) one warrant to
purchase one share of our common stock. The offering price of the
units was $0.35 per unit. This price reflects a modest discount to
the price of the common stock on July 23, 2020 because of the
temporary illiquidity of the units. The warrants included in the
units will become exercisable six months after the Issuance Date at
a price of $0.46 per share and expire five years from the Issuance
Date. The closing of the issuance and sale of these securities was
consummated on July 27, 2020 (“Issuance
Date”).
We
received gross proceeds of $2.0 million from the sale of these
securities, before deducting placement agent fees and offering
expenses, and excluding the exercise of any warrants.
We
filed the registration statement on Form S-3, of which this
prospectus forms a part, to fulfill our contractual obligations
under the registration rights agreement entered into concurrently
with the securities purchase agreement with the selling
stockholders to provide for the resale by the selling stockholders
of the shares of common stock offered hereby.
USE OF PROCEEDS
All
shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus are being
registered for the account of the selling stockholders identified
herein. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of
these shares.
We
will receive proceeds from any cash exercise of the warrants,
which, if exercised in cash with respect to all of the 5,742,858
shares of common stock offered hereby, would result in gross
proceeds to us of $2.64 million.
We
intend to use any proceeds received by us from the cash exercise of
the warrants for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The proceeds shall not be used for the satisfaction of any portion
of the Company’s debt (other than payment of trade payables
in the ordinary course of the Company’s business and prior
practices), for the redemption of any common stock or common stock
equivalents, for the settlement of any outstanding litigation, or
in violation of FCPA or OFAC regulations. Other than these
statements, as of the date of this prospectus, we cannot specify
with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to
us from the cash exercise of the warrants. Accordingly, our
management will have broad discretion in the timing and application
of these proceeds. The holders of the warrants may exercise the
warrants at their own discretion and at any time until their
expiration in accordance with the terms of the warrants. As a
result, we cannot predict when or if the warrants will be
exercised, and it is possible that the warrants may expire and
never be exercised. In addition, the warrants are exercisable on a
cashless basis if at the time of exercise there is no effective
registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained
therein is not available for, the issuance of shares of common
stock for which the warrants are exercisable. As a result, we may
never receive meaningful, or any, cash proceeds from the exercise
of the warrants.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
The
common stock being offered by the selling stockholders are those
previously issued to the selling stockholders, and those issuable
to the selling stockholders, upon exercise of the warrants. For
additional information regarding the issuances of those shares of
common stock and warrants, see “Description of Private
Placement” above. We are registering the shares of common
stock in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the
shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of
the shares of common stock and the warrants, the selling
stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within
the past three years other than participating in prior securities
offerings.
The
table below lists the selling stockholders and other information
regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock by
each of the selling stockholders. The second column lists the
number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each selling
stockholder, based on its ownership of the shares of common stock
and warrants, as of July 27, 2020, assuming exercise of the
warrants held by the selling stockholders on that date, without
regard to any limitations on exercises.
The
third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this
prospectus by the selling stockholders.
In
accordance with the terms of a registration rights agreement with
the selling stockholders, this prospectus generally covers the
resale of the sum of (i) the number of shares of common stock
issued to the selling stockholders in the “Description of
Private Placement” described above and (ii) the maximum
number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the
related warrants, determined as if the outstanding warrants were
exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the
date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC,
each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable
date of determination and all subject to adjustment as provided in
the registration right agreement, without regard to any limitations
on the exercise of the warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale
of all of the shares offered by the selling stockholders pursuant
to this prospectus.
Under
the terms of the warrants issued to Anson, EAM, ETE, ETE III, CVI,
Intracoastal, Ionic, L1, and Lind Global as a group, and to Hudson
(as defined in the following table), a selling stockholder may
not exercise the warrants to the extent such exercise would cause
such selling stockholder, together with its affiliates and
attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of
common stock which would exceed 4.99%, or 9.99% for Hudson, of our
then outstanding common stock following such exercise, excluding
for purposes of such determination shares of common stock issuable
upon exercise of the warrants which have not been exercised. The
number of shares in the second column does not reflect this
limitation. The selling stockholders may sell all, some or none of
their shares in this offering. See “Plan of
Distribution.”

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Each Selling Stockholder (the
“Selling
Stockholders”) of the
securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and
successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of
their securities covered hereby on the principal Trading Market or
any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the
securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may
be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any
one or more of the following methods when selling
securities:
●
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits purchasers;
●
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the
securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the
block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
●
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for
its account;
●
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the
applicable exchange;
●
privately
negotiated transactions;
●
settlement
of short sales;
●
in
transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling
Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a
stipulated price per security;
●
through
the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions,
whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
●
a
combination of any such methods of sale; or
●
any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The
Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any
other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if
available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers
engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other
brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive
commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any
broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from
the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set
forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency
transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in
compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal
transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule
2121.
In
connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein,
the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn
engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging
the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell
securities short and deliver these securities to close out their
short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers
that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders
may also enter into option or other transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or
more derivative securities which require the delivery to such
broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered
by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other
financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as
supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The
Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are
involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be
“underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act
in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions
received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be
underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not
have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or
indirectly, with any person to distribute the
securities.
The
Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by
the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The
Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against
certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act.
We
agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i)
the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling
Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume
or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the
requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current
public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any
other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have
been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the
Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale
securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers
or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In
addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby
may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for
sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration
or qualification requirement is available and is complied
with.
Under
applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person
engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not
simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to
the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined
in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In
addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable
provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of
purchases and sales of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders
or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus
available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the
need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or
prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule
172 under the Securities Act).

Indemnification
of Directors and Officers
Montana Business Corporation Act. As a
Montana corporation, the Company is subject to the Montana Business
Corporation Act (MCA 35-14-101 et seq., the “MBCA”), which provides
mandatory indemnification by the Company for a director who was
wholly successful in the defense of any proceeding to which the
director was a party because the director was a director of the
corporation. The MBCA also provides for (i) permissible
indemnification in certain circumstances as provided under Section
35-14-851, (ii) an advance for expenses under Section 35-14-853,
and (ii) court-ordered indemnification in certain circumstances as
provided under Section 35-14-854. All other provisions of the MBCA
governing indemnification applies to the Company except when the
MBCA allows the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation
as amended and/or Bylaws to govern.
Amended and Restated Bylaws. Our Bylaws
provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers and
provides a right of reimbursement or advancement of expenses as
detailed further in our Bylaws.
Insurance Policies. The Company has
directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in an
amount of $5,000,000. We intend to maintain insurance on behalf of
any person who is or was a director or officer against any loss
arising from any claim asserted against him or her and incurred by
him or her in any such capacity, subject to certain
exclusions.
The
foregoing discussion of our Bylaws, insurance policies, and the Act
is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety
by such Bylaws, insurance policies, the Act or any other applicable
law.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been
advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable.
(a)
Exhibits. The
exhibits to this registration statement are listed in the Exhibit
Index attached hereto and incorporated by reference
herein.
(a)
The undersigned hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration
statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of
the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form
of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if,
in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the
effective registration statement.
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
or any material change to such information in the registration
statement;
provided,
however, that Paragraphs
(a)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii) of this section do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S–1 (§ 239.11 of this
chapter), Form S–3 (§ 239.13 of this chapter), Form
SF–3 (§ 239.45 of this chapter) or Form F–3

or, as to a registration statement on Form S–3, Form
SF–3 or Form F–3, is contained in a form of prospectus
filed pursuant to § 230.424(b) of this chapter that is part of
the registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability
under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed
pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement
relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying
on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule
430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the
registration statement as of the date it is first used after
effectiveness. Provided,
however, that no statement made
in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the
registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed
incorporated by reference into the registration statement or
prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a
purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use,
supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration
statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement
or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of
first use.
(b)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a)
or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934)
that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer,
or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense
of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question of whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
