J.T. Starzecki, Executive Chairman of Guardian Metal Resources, explains how the company secured a Department of Defense award for domestic tungsten production by leveraging years of groundwork and a first-mover advantage. He points to geopolitical realities such as China’s tungsten export ban and America’s lack of supply as evidence of why Guardian’s projects in Nevada are both timely and essential. The discussion highlights how new financing and the acquisition of the Tempayute project expand production capacity while strengthening investor confidence. Starzecki also stresses the broader impact, from defense applications to revitalizing Pennsylvania’s industrial base, while positioning tungsten as vital for renewable energy, pharmaceuticals, and nuclear fusion. The interview weaves technical detail with an ironic reminder of supply chain fragility, portraying Guardian as a rare opportunity where government, investors, and domestic industry all stand to win. We're proud to have Guardian Metal Resources as a sponsor of Liberty And Finance.
