Drilling Success Continues: Nevada Organic Phosphate Confirms Consistent Thickness of Meade Peak Target at Murdock Mountain

NOP · Price

Executive Summary

  • Nevada Organic Phosphate reported successful drilling of holes MM25‑4 and MM25‑5 on the Murdock Mountain Property, intersecting extensive Meade Peak phosphate‑bearing stratigraphy as predicted by its geological model.
  • Both holes confirmed the dip of the target zone at –30° westerly, validating prior trench work and mapping.
  • The company will release laboratory assay results once available and is preparing the next drill hole (MM25‑6).

Key Details

  • Hole MM25‑4: Vertical drill to 99.7 m depth; intersected 29.2 m of favorable Meade Peak phosphate-bearing stratigraphy (assay results pending).
  • Hole MM25‑5: Drilled on a –65° dip, azimuth 120°, to 92.96 m depth; intersected 32.6 m of favorable Meade Peak phosphate-bearing stratigraphy (assay results pending).
  • Target Confirmation: Both holes verify the –30° westerly dip of the Upper Phosphatic Zone, consistent with Fedewa’s 1980 model and Montecinos’ 2012‑2013 mapping.
  • Next Drill Program: Planned hole MM25‑6 located at 723830E, 4568439N, approximately 370 m southwest of holes MM25‑4/5; currently being logged with results to be released shortly.
  • Qualified Person: Kenneth N. Tullar, AIPG Certified Professional Geologist (CPG‑11142), reviewed and approved the technical content.

Notable Quotes

“We are delighted to announce that our fourth and fifth drill holes have once again intersected Meade Peak phosphate‑bearing stratigraphy precisely where our geological model predicted… This repeated drill success underscores the accuracy of our predictive modeling, with the target's geometry continuing to demonstrate remarkable consistency.” – Robin Dow, CEO, Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc.
