Felix was selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for an $18 million antimony grant.

The leadership read

Felix's raise resets the leadership agenda more than the balance sheet. Capital into the sector buys room to build senior operating and commercial bench strength ahead of scale. The near-term tilt favours operators who have scaled before; the appointments that follow say more than the announcement did across Americas.

Market context: The wider read — a Talent Market Index of 100.1 (Neutral), down 1.1 month-on-month — shows Americas signal flow easing (-1.8pts).

Felix: 2 signals in the last 90 days; 0.2% of MitchelLake's Oceania signal flow; 3 tracked across 134 days.
