Target
Twin Creeks-Turquoise Ridge type sediment hosted gold deposit in Lower Plate carbonate rocks below the Roberts Mountain Thrust, as well as Preble or Lone Tree type sediment-hosted gold deposit within the lower plate of the Golconda Thrust.

Production
- Located 35km east of Winnemucca Nevada, at the intersection of the prolific Battle Mountain-Eureka and Getchell-Twin Creeks gold trends.
- 25km south of NGM’s Twin Creeks-Turquoise Ridge Complex (combined 52M oz Au).
- 8km northwest of i-80 Gold’s Lone Tree (8M oz Au).
Outlook
Drilling has intersected multiple zones of gold mineralization hosted in Upper Plate siliciclastic rocks. These shallow lower-grade intercepts were interpreted as leakage from a larger Carlin-type system at depth.
The project remains largely unexplored at depth for a Lower Plate carbonate-hosted gold system. IP22-005: 9.2m @ 1.04 g/t Au from 675.4-684.6m.
