IperionX has secured its final 4.6 million dollar tranche of a 47.1 million dollar DoD contract, alongside 290 metric tons of titanium scrap to scale domestic additive manufacturing. This infusion provides a 1.5-year feedstock buffer as production scales toward 1,400 tonnes per annum in Virginia. By recycling government scrap into powder, the U.S. is decoupling its supply chain from energy-intensive foreign extraction. This secures price stability and reduces lead times for defense. 📦🚀
