"The Gold Springs 1 acquisition advances our disciplined strategy to build a diversified North American portfolio across silver, copper, uranium, and gold," said George Tsafalas, Interim CEO & Director of Supreme Critical Metals. "Nevada is among the world's most mining-friendly jurisdictions, and Gold Springs 1 represents an early-stage exploration opportunity within a well-documented mineralized belt, and we'll begin fieldwork to rank drill targets now, with a view to a 2026 program."
The Gold Springs 1 is situated within an active and historically productive mining region of Lincoln County, Nevada, administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management's Caliente Field Office. The area hosts several exploration and development projects, including Gold Springs Resource Corp.'s Gold Springs Project, an established gold-silver system extending across the Nevada-Utah border, Nevada King Gold Corp.'s Atlanta Gold Mine, a past-producing open-pit operation currently being advanced through drilling and permitting, and NevGold Corp.'s Cedar Wash Project, a district-scale gold exploration property to the south. Additional mineral exploration and industrial mineral operations, including the Pioche Sepiolite Project and permitted perlite mining activities, reflecting the region's established mining infrastructure and active exploration presence. and ongoing exploration activity. The presence of these projects underscores the mining-friendly regulatory environment and accessibility of Lincoln County for responsible mineral exploration and development.
About Gold Springs 1
Location: The Gold Springs 1 Property is located in the Stateline (Eagle Valley) Mining District, Lincoln County, Nevada, USA, approximately 40 km east of Pioche near the Nevada-Utah state line.
Geology & Mineralization: Gold Springs 1comprises twenty-three (23) unpatented mining claims covering a contiguous land package in Township 1 North, Range 71 East, Mount Diablo Meridian. The district recorded roughly US$400,000 in historical gold-silver production from 1896 into the 1930s, including high-grade silver from the principal vein system on the claim block.1 Two principal NE-striking, W-dipping fault-controlled zones are recognized: the Tempa-Helen vein system and the Miramonte zone. These structures exhibit extensive silicification with quartz-adularia-calcite veining and classic low-sulfidation epithermal gold-silver mineralization. The Tempa vein averages 2-10 m in width and is traceable for >1.6 km along strike with ~250 m of vertical exposure. Gold Summit Corp. reported assays up to 517 g/t Ag and 4.2 g/t Au.2 The Miramonte zone, ~650 m east of Tempa, extends ~1.2 km through silicified outcrops, pits, and an adit; early chip sampling reported 0.9 m @ 40 g/t Au from a quartz vein, indicative of geochemical similarities to upper levels of the Tempa system.3
Regional Context: The Property forms part of the broader Gold Springs 1 epithermal trend along the Nevada-Utah border. Mineralization is controlled by Basin-and-Range extensional faults and ring-fracture zones related to Miocene-age caldera complexes. Host rocks include andesite, latite, and rhyolitic tuffs with pervasive silicification and clay (argillic) alteration. Drilling and mapping across adjacent parts of the trend have outlined mineralized corridors up to ~150 m true width with >8 km strike lengths, supporting potential for near-surface, bulk-tonnage mineralization with localized high-grade shoots.
