Lahontan Gold

 

 

 

 

Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSXV: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF) (FSE: Y2F) is a Canadian mine development and mineral exploration company that holds, through its US subsidiaries, four top-tier gold and silver exploration properties in the Walker Lane of mining friendly Nevada. Lahontan’s flagship property, the 26.4km2 Santa Fe Mine project, had past production of 356,000 ounces of gold and 784,000 ounces of silver between 1988 and 1995 from open pit mines utilizing heap-leach processing (Nevada Division of Minerals, www.ndomdata.com). The Santa Fe Mine has a Canadian National Instrument 43-101 compliant Indicated Mineral Resource of 1,539,000 oz Au Eq (grading 0.99 g/t Au Eq) and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 411,000 oz Au Eq (grading 0.76 g/t Au Eq), all pit constrained (Au Eq is inclusive of recovery, please see Santa Fe Project Technical Report*). The Company plans to continue advancing the Santa Fe Mine project towards production, update the Santa Fe Preliminary Economic Assessment, and drill test its satellite West Santa Fe project during 2025.

 

Corporate Presentation

 

Projects

 

Sante Fe Mine

 

Walker Lane 60-80km wide Physiographic province of northwest Striking faults. Triassic sediments (predominantly carbonates) are intruded by Jurassic to Cretaceous diorite and granite, and overlain by Tertiary volcanic rocks.

Alteration and gold mineralization controlled by NW, NE and EW structures.

The Triassic Luning carbonate rocks are often brecciated, decalcified, silicified and sulfidized. Tertiary volcanic rocks are typically clay altered, sulfidized, and locally silicified.

Generally, Luning Formation carbonate rocks outcrop in the southern half of the property while Tertiary volcanic rocks outcrop in the northern half of the property.

 

 

West Santa Fe

 

The advanced West Santa Fe gold-silver project is located only 15 km West of the Flagship Santa Fe Mine and hosts an oxidized gold-silver mineralized system in a geologic setting nearly identical to Santa Fe.

 

Modeling of historical drill hole data by Lahontan geologists outlines a shallow gold and silver system with a sufficient volume to host 0.5 to 1.0M ounces of oxidized gold and silver mineralization in an open-pit mining configuration*

 

Moho

 

Ground mag defines the Moho Structural Corridor, a series of multiple en echelon veins and fault breccias, with a strike length in excess of 2500 meters. KA Gold drilled six core holes in 2018 totaling 1,960 meters with multiple high-grade intercepts. Drilling to date has only tested a narrow vertical range and only one of the multiple vein systems. Data from underground sampling and drilling suggests potential grades of over 20 gpt Au Eq in thoroughly oxidized veins. Permits in place for immediate follow up drilling.

 

Redlich

 

Redlich is located in the Walker Lane about midway between Hawthorne and Tonopah, Nevada. Previous exploration defined a historic resource of 16.5M ounces Ag Eq in Tertiary epithermal veins and stockwork. Drilling in 2018 discovered a new style of mineralization: thick zones of disseminated Au and Ag mineralization hosted by hydrothermal breccias. The new discovery is on strike with the Candelaria open pit Ag mine and is completely untested.
