Located in the Battle Mountain Mining District
The Gold Mountain Project is comprised of 34 unpatented lode mining claims spanning approximately 284 hectares in the historically prolific Battle Mountain mining district of Lander County, Nevada.
This project presents compelling upside potential with both high-grade structurally controlled Au-Ag-Pb mineralization and evidence of porphyry-style mineralization within and around the Gold Mountain intrusive. The property is accessible via well-developed infrastructure near the town of Battle Mountain and benefits from proximity to major mining operations within the region.
Gold Mountain is centered on the Eocene-aged Gold Mountain stock, the project lies near the past-producing Dewitt Mine and features structurally-controlled oxidized sulfide bodies and porphyry-style mineralization. Historic exploration has been conducted by operators including Oro Nevada, Gold Ventures Inc., and Placer Dome, with significant past intercepts including 10.67 metres at 0.99 g/t Au.
More recent work by the Vendor in 2023 and 2024 included detailed geologic mapping, collection of 116 rock samples, and submission of a Notice of Intent to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), which was approved for drilling activity. There are two faults projected onto the property: one trending E-W and the other trending NNE, with a likely intersection lineation roughly coincident with the intruded pluton.
This areas hosts a number of otehr deposits and operating mines. A series of copper & silver mines are present in a similar geological setting as to the Gold Mountain property:
-
Copper Queen: 28 M lbs of copper
-
Labrador: 276,699 oz Ag
-
Copper King: produced 371,976 lbs Cu from 1936-1954
-
Sweet Marie: 9,298,383 lbs of Cu
-
Phoenix Mine Complex is to the south along a similar structural trend from Golden Mountain
