BMM · Price

Executive Summary

  • Black Mammoth Metals Corp. completed the acquisition of the Ramsey Silver property in La Paz County, AZ for a total cash consideration of $42,000.
  • The property hosts significant historic and recent silver mineralization, highlighted by a best drill intercept of 44.4 m grading 62.5 g/t Ag (true width ~35 m) and a broader zone averaging 42.6 g/t Ag over 88.4 m (true width ~70 m).
  • No royalties or additional compensation are attached to the acquisition, giving Black Mammoth 100 % ownership and immediate access to an extensive data package for further evaluation.

Key Details

  • Acquisition Scope: 2 patented claims + 12 federal lode claims on BLM land; total area ≈ 100 ha (247 acres).
  • Purchase Price: US$30,000 for the patented claims; US$12,000 for the BLM claims; total cash outlay US$42,000.
  • Royalty Structure: 0 % royalty – Black Mammoth holds the property free‑and‑clear.
  • Location: Foothills of the New Water Mountains, ~6 km SW of Brenda, AZ; within the historic Plomosa Mining District (Sonora Desert, Basin & Range physiographic province).
  • Historical Context: Adjacent to the historic Ramsey mine; prior drilling (1960s) and recent 2016‑2018 work identified strong surface geochemical anomalies.
  • Best Drill Intercept (R1706, 2017 RC):
  • 44.4 m @ 62.5 g/t Ag from 79.4 – 123.5 m depth; approx. true width 35 m.
  • Within a wider silver zone from 64 – 152.4 m: 88.4 m @ 42.6 g/t Ag (true width ~70 m).
  • Drill Orientation: Hole R1706 drilled at –75° bearing, 60° azimuth on patented ground; may intersect periphery of a silver‑bearing hydrothermal system.
  • QA/QC Procedures: Chain‑of‑custody handled by ALS Minerals; samples processed to 70 % passing 2 mm, split, pulverized to 85 % passing 75 µm; four‑acid digestion and ICP/MS analysis for 48 elements; high‑grade intervals re‑assayed via fire assay.
  • Future Plans: Commence comprehensive review of the data package and on‑site evaluation to assess open‑pit potential given near‑surface mineralization.
  • Additional Activity: Company continues acquiring non‑core exploration interests in the western U.S. through purchases and staking.
