NevGold Drills Consistent Antimony-Gold Mineralization in Nevada Leach Pads
Event summary
- NevGold intercepted consistent oxide antimony and gold mineralization in all drillholes from the historic Crushed leach pad at its Limousine Butte Project in Nevada.
- Highlights include 0.32% Sb and 0.39 g/t Au over 14.9 meters in drillhole LBS26-014.
- The company aims to complete a maiden antimony-gold Mineral Resource Estimate by 2027.
- Antimony is a critical mineral with strategic importance and military applications.
- NevGold plans a 20,000-meter drill program in 2026 to expand and discover new targets.
The big picture
NevGold's findings at Limousine Butte come at a time when critical minerals like antimony are gaining traction due to their strategic importance in military and industrial applications. The project's location in Nevada, a proven mining district, positions it favorably for development. The company's focus on oxide mineralization at surface levels reduces the need for large-scale mining activities, potentially accelerating time-to-production.
