Cortez Summit Project
Carlin Gold’s Cortez Summit property, situated in the Cortez gold trend, comprises 142 unpatented lode claims. Positioned near active gold mines like Goldrush and Cortez Hills, Cortez Summit targets Carlin-style mineralization in similar structural and stratigraphic settings. Geological studies confirm the sedimentary units’ equivalence to those hosting mineralization at Goldrush, with recent drilling indicating potential high-grade mineralization. Nearby discoveries, such as Barrick’s Fourmile, further enhance exploration prospects. The Goldrush deposit, with substantial indicated and inferred resources, underscores the region’s significant gold potential. Ongoing feasibility studies and exploration activities contribute to the property’s promising outlook.
Willow Project
The Willow property in northern Snake Mountains, Nevada, is situated in a promising gold belt near Wells. Exploration targets a Carlin-style gold deposit in carbonate rocks. Rock chip samples show gold values up to 368 ppb, associated with NE-trending structures. The property, comprising 24 QA-claims and 23 CC-claims, is fully owned with variable net returns royalties. The area’s potential was identified through GIS analysis of regional data. Significant structural features like the Roberts Mountain Thrust host favorable lithologies for gold mineralization. Further exploration, including drilling in specific areas, is planned to assess gold potential.
Ivy Copper-Gold Project
The IVY Property is an early-stage exploration project located in northeastern Elko County, Nevada. The project aims to explore a copper-gold skarn deposit within a carbonate sequence adjacent to a granodiorite stock. Historical workings show minor copper mineralization, with recent sampling indicating widespread mineralization. Geologists suggest potential for buried porphyry-style mineralization. Carlin plans to conduct additional surface sampling and mapping to assess the project’s exploration potential.
The Cortez Trend
Carlin Gold identified Cortez Summit as prospective in 2007 and began initial claims staking before Barrick’s Goldrush discovery in 2011. Encouraging geochemical results from the NNW trending Fourmile structural zone sparked interest, with grab samples showing up to 0.447 gpt gold. The property hosts two mineralization systems: Carlin-style sediment-hosted gold and Buckhorn-style volcanic-hosted low sulfidation Au-Ag. Carlin-style mineralization primarily targets the favorable carbonate section, while Buckhorn-style mineralization is associated with Miocene volcanics. Structural features include NNW horst and graben structures controlling mineralization and NE-trending structures like Willow Creek. Exploration efforts include drilling to assess the Lower Plate carbonate section’s presence and depth near the Fourmile structural zone, with promising gold values found in altered rocks.
