Tangible Defense
Strategic Metals
Beyond gold and silver. The critical materials that power semiconductors, fiber optics, and electric vehicles with supply chains concentrated in geopolitically sensitive regions. Scarcity you can hold.
The Strategic Metals Thesis
When most investors think "metals," they think gold. Gold is fine—but sophisticated investors are looking beyond precious metals to the critical materials that modern technology depends on.
Consider: every smartphone contains gallium. Every fiber optic cable uses germanium. Every electric vehicle needs rare earth magnets. Yet production is concentrated in a handful of countries—primarily China—creating supply chain vulnerabilities that Western governments are scrambling to address.
This isn't speculation about future technology. This is owning the materials that current technology already requires—materials with structural supply constraints and growing demand.
By the Numbers
Available Metals
We source directly from verified refineries with full chain-of-custody documentation. Custom quotes for any quantity.
Gallium
Essential for semiconductors, LEDs, and solar cells. China controls 80% of production. US import dependency: 100%.
Germanium
Critical for fiber optics, infrared optics, and electronics. Limited primary production—mostly recovered from zinc processing.
Indium
Key component in touchscreens and LCD displays. No primary mines—entirely a byproduct of zinc and lead smelting.
Rare Earths
17 elements critical for EVs, wind turbines, and defense. China controls 70% of mining and 90% of processing.
Why Physical Metals
Not ETFs. Not mining stocks. Actual metal you can hold, store, and sell.
Inflation Hedge
Physical assets that maintain purchasing power when paper currencies erode.
Supply Constraints
Structural deficits as demand grows faster than mining can respond.
Secure Custody
Insured vault storage in Delaware, Switzerland, or Singapore.
Physical Delivery
Take possession anytime. Your metal, your control.
