  • LGCXF recently received BLM approval for its flagship drill program at West Santa Fe, granting it access to about half of its land package
  • Lahontan Gold operates at the intersection of exploration, geological expertise, and strategic project development
  • With these updates, Lahontan Gold Corp is strategically positioned to maximize its mission to advance gold and silver projects in Nevada’s Walker Lane, maximizing resource potential and stakeholder value

Lahontan Gold (TSX.V: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF), a top Canadian mineral exploration company focused on gold and silver projects in Nevada’s Walker Lane district, is entering a transformative phase after securing the Federal Bureau of Land Management’s permit for its West Santa Fe drill program. The site, which is located 13 km from Lahontan’s Santa Fe Mine project, grants the company access to unpatented lode mining claims on federal lands, creating a new vista of opportunities (ibn.fm/cQkw). Building on this regulatory milestone, Lahontan has now commenced its reverse-circulation drilling campaign at West Santa Fe, aimed at validating historic drill data and advancing the project toward resource definition. Recent completion of drilling at the nearby Santa Fe Mine positions the company for an updated mineral resource estimate and future economic studies.

Recently, Lahontan Gold Corp’s CEO Kimberly Ann emphasized the importance of the coming months: According to her, “I do believe the next 6 to 9 months are going to be a transformative year for the company, and so it’s a pretty short timeline for people to get in because if you are not in now, you should get in. It’s a fascinating time to be a part of Lahontan, and to be an investor at Lahontan” (ibn.fm/5R089).

Lahontan’s West Santa Fe drill program is expected to validate existing results while also testing extensions to known silver and gold mineralization. The company currently operates an active drill rig located at its Santa Fe Mine project. It intends to relocate the rig to West Santa Fe as soon as the program finalizes. Lahontan’s CEO also stated that geologic work at West Santa Fe indicates gold and silver mineralization extending several kilometers along strike and down-dip, making the forthcoming program highly important.

Lahontan Gold operates at the intersection of geological expertise, high-potential exploration, and strategic project development. The company’s flagship Santa Fe Mine project recorded about 359,202 ounces of gold produced and 702,067 ounces of silver produced between 1988 and 1995.

These latest updates highlight Lahontan Gold’s mission: To advance gold and silver projects in Nevada’s Walker Lane, maximize resource potential, and create shareholder value. Having obtained the West Santa Fe permit alongside the existing drill programs, LGCXF is strategically positioned to accelerate progress within the next year.
