PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION, CONTINUED:

United States Antimony Corporation and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (UNAUDITED)



1.  Basis of Presentation:

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the
Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information, as well as the instructions to Form 10-QSB and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial  statements. In the opinion of the Company's
management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial
statements have been included. Operating results for the six-month period
ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the full year ending December 31, 2000. Certain consolidated
financial statement amounts for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999,
have been reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation.  These
reclassifications had no effect on the net income or accumulated deficit as
previously reported.

During the second quarter of 2000, the Company began negotiations with the
Estate of Bobby C. Hamilton to settle a note payable owed the Estate (see
Financial Condition and Liquidity).  Although the final closing of the
settlement agreement did not take place until July 2000, the Company has
adjusted the June 30, 2000 consolidated financial statements to reflect the
settlement of debt, the extraordinary gain on the settlement, and the
issuance of debentures and common stock relating to the settlement.

For  further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes
thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1999.


2. Commitments and contingencies:

Until 1989, the Company mined, milled and leached gold and silver in the
Yankee Fork Mining District in Custer County, Idaho. The metals were recovered
by a 150-ton per day gravity and flotation mill, and the concentrates were
leached with cyanide to produce a bullion product at the Preachers Cove mill,
which is located nine miles north of Sunbeam, Idaho on the Yankee Fork of the
Salmon River. In 1994, the U.S. Forest Service, under the provisions of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA),
designated the cyanide leach plant as a contaminated site requiring cleanup of
the cyanide solution. In 1996, the Company signed a consent decree with the
Idaho Department of Environmental Quality  relating to completing the
reclamation and remediation at the Preachers Cove mill. The Company believes
the cleanup will be complete sometime by 2001.


3. Income (loss)  per common share:

The diluted share base for the six months ended June 30, 2000, excludes
incremental shares relating to outstanding stock purchase warrants and shares
convertible from debentures.  These shares are excluded due to their
antidilutive effect as a result of the Company's loss from continuing
operations during the first six months of 2000.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerators and
denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") computations
for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999.

(1) Series C preferred stock is convertible into common stock of the company
on a share-for-share basis.  The effect on the computation of diluted weighted
average shares outstanding is based upon the potential conversion of the
shares into common stock for the period of time the preferred shares were
outstanding and the antidilutive provisions of the Series C shares.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
        Operations and Financial Condition

 General

This report contains both historical and prospective statements concerning the
Company and its operations.  Prospective statements (known as "forward-looking
statements") may or may not prove true with the passage of time because of
future risks and uncertainties.  The Company cannot predict what factors might
cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by prospective
statements.

 Results of Operations

 For the three-month period ended June 30, 2000

The Company's operations resulted in a net loss of $236,029 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 2000 compared with a net income of $105,876
for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999.

The increase in the loss for the second quarter of 2000 compared to the same
quarter of 1999 is primarily due to the continuing decrease in antimony
product prices during the second quarter of 2000.

During the second quarter of 2000, the Company settled a debt obligation owed
the Estate of Bobby C. Hamilton (see Financial Condition and Liquidity).  In
connection with the settlement, the Company recorded an extraordinary gain of
$917,726 that resulted in net income after the extraordinary gain of $681,697
for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000.

Total revenues from antimony product sales for the second quarter of 2000 were
$1,190,413 compared with $1,533,620 for the comparable quarter of 1999, a
decrease of $343,207.  The decrease in revenue from sales during the second
quarter of 2000 was the result of decreasing antimony product prices.  Sales
of  antimony products during the second quarter of 2000 consisted of 1,312,372
pounds at an average sale price of $.90 per pound.  During the second quarter
of 1999, sales of antimony products consisted of 1,549,099 pounds at an
average sale price of $0.99 per pound.  Gross profit from antimony sales
during the second three-month period of 2000 was $52,162 compared with gross
profit of $347,887 during the second three-month period of 1999.  The
decrease in gross profit and sale prices of antimony products from the second
quarter of 2000 to the second quarter of  1999 is the result of a
corresponding decrease in antimony metal prices.

 Results of Operations, continued:

 For the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, Continued:

In 1996, the Company's Yellow Jacket property  was put on a care and
maintenance status and gold production was terminated. Subsequent to the
curtailment of production at Yellow Jacket, the Company began an underground
exploration program and during 1997, 1998 and the first and second quarters of
1999, the Company pursued exploration and core drilling activities at Yellow
Jacket. During the second quarter of 1999, due to depressed gold prices and
the absence of a signifigant discovery of mineralized material that could be
economically mined, the Company abandoned its exploration program and began
final reclamation and closure activities.  Since the cessation of exploration,
the Company has been engaged exclusively in reclamation activities at Yellow
Jacket.

Costs related to the reclamation of Yellow Jacket were $50,105 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 2000, compared with care and maintenance
costs of $4,906 during the three-month period ended June 30, 1999.  The
increase in costs was primarily due to increased reclamation activity during
the second quarter of 2000 and the absence of second quarter reversing
adjustments made to care and maintenance costs in 1999.  Costs related to
exploration and evaluation at Yellow Jacket were $11,926 for the three-month
period ended June 30, 1999, compared to no exploration costs during the three-
month period ended June 30, 2000, due to the cessation of exploration
activities at the property during the second quarter of 1999.

The sales expense was $84,286 during the second quarter of 2000 compared with
$63,960 in the second quarter of 1999.  Sales expense was lower during the
second quarter of 1999 as compared to the second quarter of 2000, as it was
the first full quarter the Company sold its antimony products independently,
and its sales department was in the formation stages.

General and administrative expenses were $91,351 during the second quarter of
2000 compared to $81,588 during the second quarter of 1999.  The increase in
general and administrative expenses during the second quarter of 2000 was
partially related to costs incurred in settling the Hamilton Estate debt (see
Financial Condition and Liquidity).

During the second quarter of 1999, the Company re-evaluated its estimate of
reclamation costs required to complete reclamation and remediation at the
Company's Preachers Cove mill site pursuant to the consent decree signed with
the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality in 1996. In connection with this
re-evaluation, the Company recognized a gain of $35,000 during the second
quarter of 1999 from the adjustment of its reclamation accrual.  The Company
monitors reclamation costs on all its properties and adjusts accrued
reclamation costs as necessary to reflect the Company's best estimate of costs
required to fulfill its reclamation responsibilities to federal and state
environmental agencies.  No such adjustments were required during the second
quarter of 2000.

Accounts receivable factoring expense was $24,827 during the second quarter of
2000 compared to $52,012 for the second quarter of 1999.  Factoring expense
decreased during 2000 due to the absence of set up fees that had been charged
during 1999.

Interest expense was $40,129 during three-month period ended June 30, 2000,
compared to $64,930 for the same period in 1999. The decrease in interest
expense is primarily due to interest costs on inventory purchased from a
former sales affiliate at the beginning of the second quarter of 1999 that
were not present during 2000.

Interest income was $2,507 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, and
was comparable to $2,311 for the same period in 1999.

 For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000

The Company's operations resulted in a  net loss of $391,889 for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2000 compared with a net income of $12,191 for the
six-month period ended June 30, 1999.  Net income for the period ended June
30, 2000, after the extraordinary gain on settlement of debt, (see Financial
Condition and Liquidity) was $525,837.

 Results of Operations, continued:

 For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, Continued:

Total revenues from antimony product sales for the first six months of 2000
were $2,363,463 compared with $2,223,922 during the comparable period in
1999.   Sales of antimony products during the first six months of 2000
consisted of 2,559,961 pounds at an average sale price of $0.92 per pound.
During the first six months of 1999 sales of antimony products consisted of
2,233,421 pounds at an average sale price of $1.00 per pound.  The decrease
in sale prices of antimony products from the first two quarters of 1999
compared to the first two quarters of 2000 is the result of a corresponding
decrease in antimony metal prices.  Gross profit from antimony sales during
the first six months of 2000 was $275,443, compared with gross profit of
$420,814 during the first six months of 1999. The decrease in gross profit
during the first six months of 2000 compared to the comparable period of 1999,
is primarily due to decreased antimony product sales prices during 2000.

Costs related to the reclamation of Yellow Jacket were $77,906 for the
six-month period ended June 30, 2000, compared with care, maintenance and
reclamation costs of $43,770 during the six-month period ended June 30, 1999.
The increase was primarily due to the increased reclamation activities during
2000 as compared to 1999.  Costs related to exploration and evaluation at
Yellow Jacket were $45,198 for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999,
compared with no exploration costs during the six-month period ended June 30,
2000.

Sales expense was $194,351 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000
compared to $63,960 for the same period in 1999.  The increase in sales
expense during the first six months of 2000 as compared to the same period of
1999 was due to the sales department's operation for only three months of the
six-month period ended June 30, 1999.

General and administrative expenses increased $125,487 to $269,195 during the
first six months of 2000 as compared to $143,708 during  the first six months
of 1999. The increase was partially due to a financial consulting expense of
$78,000 incurred in connection with the settlement of debt in the first
quarter of 2000 that was not incurred in 1999.

Interest expense was $81,239 during six-month period ended June 30, 2000,
compared to $116,072 for the same period in 1999. The decrease in interest
expense is primarily due to interest costs relating to inventory purchased
from a former sales affiliate during 1999 that was not incurred in
2000.

Interest income was $4,647 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2000,
and was comparable to $4,657 for the same period in 1999.

During the second quarter of 1999 a gain of $16,440, resulting from the write-
off of certain accounts payable was recognized, no such gain was recognized
for the comparable quarter of 2000.

 Financial Condition and Liquidity

At June 30, 2000, Company assets totaled $985,528, and there was a
stockholders' deficit of $1,343,733. The stockholders' deficit decreased
$839,462 from December 31, 1999, due to the extraordinary gain on settlement
of debt.  In order to continue as a going concern, the Company is dependent
upon profitable operations from the antimony division and continuing short and
long-term debt financing. Without financing and profitable operations, the
Company may not be able to meet its obligations, fund operations and continue
in existence.

Cash used in operating activities during the first six months of 2000
was $316,486 compared with cash provided of $15,263 during the first six
months of 1999.  The change in cash from operations for the first six months
of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 was primarily due to the net loss
of $361,889 (before extraordinary gain on the settlement of debt) incurred
during the first two quarters of 2000.

Cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2000 was
$35,079 compared to $45,732 used during the comparable period of 1999. During
both periods, cash used in investing activities related to the Company's
investment in antimony processing plant and equipment.

<PAGE>

Financial Condition and Liquidity, continued:

Cash provided by financing activities was $351,565 during the first six months
of 2000 compared to $30,469  provided by financing activities during the
comparable period of 1999. The increase in cash provided from financing
activities was principally due to advances from the Company's President of
$70,000, common stock and warrant sales of $155,000 and the issuance of
$600,000 of convertible debentures during the first six months of 2000. Cash
provided from financing activities during the first six months of 2000 was
used to settle an outstanding debt (see below) and fund operations.

In an effort to improve the Company's financial condition, the Company's
management began negotiations during the second quarter of 2000 to settle a
debt owed the Estate of Bobby C. Hamilton ("the Estate"). The debt of
approximately $1,500,000, required minimum annual payments of principal and
interest of $200,000 and consumed 4% of the Company's gross revenues from
sales. As a result of management's negotiations, the Company entered into a
Settlement and Release of All Claims Agreement ("the  Settlement Agreement")
with the Estate on June 23, 2000.  The Settlement Agreement extinguished the
note payable to the Estate in exchange for a cash payment of $500,000 and the
issuance of 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock.  The cash payment
was financed by the issuance of $600,000 of debentures pursuant to a financing
agreement with Thomson Kernaghan, Ltd. ("TK"), a Canadian investment banker,
described in detail below.

The Settlement Agreement mutually released both parties from any and all
obligations between them, and includes the Company's indemnification of the
Estate against any liabilities and claims that may result from environmental
remediation responsibilities on the Company's Idaho gold properties. The
Settlement Agreement also required the Company to arrange the purchase
of 614,000 shares of the Estate's unrestricted common stock of the Company
by a third party for $90,340.

In connection with the Agreement between the Company and the Estate, the
Company entered into a financing agreement with TK effective July 11, 2000.
The financing agreement provides, among other things, for the sale of
up to $1,500,000 of the Company's convertible debentures to the
investment banker and its affiliates.  In addition, TK agreed to purchase,
pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, 614,000 shares of unrestricted common
stock owned by the Estate for $90,340.  The financing agreement also provids
for an initial debenture purchase of $600,000, and specified that the proceeds
from the sale be used to 1) pay the Estate $500,000 and extinguish the note
payable owed it pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, 2 ) pay the fees and
expenses of the TK's counsel of $15,000, 3) pay TK's fee of $60,000 relating
to the placement of the convertible debentures, and 4) provide $25,000 for
the Company's working capital purposes.

The debentures are due June 30, 2002 and accrue interest at 10% to be paid
annually on each anniversary date of the issue.  The debentures are
convertible into shares of the Company's common stock based on a formula
determining the conversion price that calculates the lower of 75% of the
average 3 lowest closing bid prices for the Company's common stock as quoted
by Bloomburg L.P. in the twenty trading days immediately preeceding the
effective date of the financing agreement (July 11, 2000) or the conversion
date of the debentures.

Pursuant to the financing agreement, the Company issued to TK, as additional
consideration for the financing arrangement, warrants to purchase 961,539
shares of the Company's common stock at $0.39 per share and issued warrants to
purchase 384,615 shares of the Company's common stock at $0.39 per share to
the purchasers $600,000 of debentures.  The warrants are excersiable for five
years.  If additional debentures are issued under the financing agreement,
the Company wil issue  additional warrants to purchase the Company's common
stock at $0.39 per share.  The number of shares subject to such additional
warrants shall be equal to 25% of the face amount of the additional debentures
divided by $0.39 per share.

Financial Condition and Liquidity, continued:

The financing agreement required that the Company execute a registration
rights agreement, binding the Company to prepare and file a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the shares
of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and upon conversion
of the debentures, and to increase the number of its authorized but
outstanding shares of common stock to accommodate the exercise of outstanding
warrants and conversion of debentures.


During the first six months of 2000, the Company took the following
additional actions to minimize its losses, conserve its cash flow, and improve
its financial condition:

          - Restructured its sales department, reducing overall staffing
            expenses

          - Refinanced a long-term note payable with a bank

          - Negotiated an abatement of property taxes due an Idaho county

          - Negotiated a reduction in the "holdback" retainage on an accounts
            receivable factoring agreement

          - Obtained additional advances from the Company's President of
            $71,243

          - Increased production from its old Thompson Falls mine slag pile
            to decrease raw material costs

During the third quarter of 2000, the Company plans to hold an annual meeting
of shareholders. At this meeting  management will propose an amendment to the
Company's articles of incorporation increasing the authorized number of common
shares to satisfy the requirements of the financing agreement the Company
entered into and to make available additional shares for sale.  Management
believes that this increase in capitalization will be valuable in obtaining
additional convertible debenture financing pursuant to the financing agreement
and generating funds from common stock sales.

In 1996, the Yellow Jacket operation was put on a care and maintenance basis
after a long history of operating losses.  During the second quarter of 1999,
the Company terminated its exploration efforts at the Yellow Jacket, and began
reclamation activities.  While the Yellow Jacket reclamation currently
continues to consume the Company's capital resources, management anticipates
that cash reclamamtion bonds will be released near the end of 2000.

While management is optimistic that the Company will be able to achieve
profitable operations and meet its financial obligations, there can be no
assurance of such.

Significant financial commitments for future periods will include:

              - Servicing notes payable to bank

              - Keeping current on property, payroll, and income tax
                liabilities and accounts payable

              - Fulfilling responsibilities with environmental, labor
                safety and securities regulatory agencies
