About the company
Principal Mineral CO. Inc., a for-profit corporate entity based in Southlake, Texas, manufactures domestic copper foil and related mineral products for federal industrial-base initiatives as a prime on an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) with the Department of the Army and as a sub-recipient on federal grants from the Department of the Navy. The vendor operates as a parent holding company with three named subsidiaries: Principal Mineral Resources LLC, Principal Mineral Holdings LLC, and Camden Copper Holdings LLC (a goods manufacturer).
Principal Mineral's federal footprint remains nascent but concentrated in critical-minerals domestic production. The vendor holds a single prime OTA with the Army Research Development and Engineering Command (ARDEC) awarded April 27, 2026, valued at $37.2 million with an October 27, 2028 completion date. The agreement supports base-year funding and product development for domestic copper foil production at the Southlake, Texas facility under the Strategic and Critical Materials Domestic Industrial Base (SAMDIB) initiative; milestones and product service codes have been revised since award, and combined dollars obligated ($40.2 million) exceed the stated ceiling, indicating incremental funding actions to sustain base-year execution. As a sub-recipient, Principal Mineral appears on two federal grant sub-awards under the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences Inc. as prime grantee: a July 14, 2025 sub-award for sustainment and modernization of domestic copper foil production and a December 17, 2025 Phase II extension of the same effort. Customer concentration splits between the Army's ARDEC (one prime award, $37.2 million) and Naval Sea Systems Command (two grant sub-awards). The vendor does not report parent contract vehicles, GWACs, or BPAs in the award portfolio — all recent activity flows through either direct OTA or sub-award channels tied to the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences relationship.
Activity through the source data spans less than twelve months (two awards in 2025, one in 2026), with no multi-year trajectory data sufficient to characterize growth or decline. The $37.2 million OTA represents 100% of the vendor's prime potential value and faces recompete or renewal consideration before October 2028. No subcontractor relationships or defense-industrial teaming are evident in the source data. The vendor's federal posture to date reflects targeted execution on critical-minerals manufacturing and domestic industrial-base resilience rather than broad commercial federal contracting.
