Almadex Announces Staking of Epithermal Precious Metals Prospect, Idaho USA

Almadex continues routine staking with no near-term production or assay catalysts to offset the technical downtrend.

Executive Summary
  • Almadex Minerals staked the Fountain Ridge epithermal precious metals prospect in western Idaho.
  • Geological mapping indicates high-level paleo water table alteration, including silicification, argillic alteration, and sinter deposits consistent with a fossil geothermal system.
  • Initial grab samples returned no significant gold or silver values.
  • The company plans further sampling, mapping, and preliminary induced polarization (IP) geophysical surveys to generate initial drill targets.
  • The property is located ~27 km from the historic DeLamar deposit (~1M oz Au, 50M oz Ag) and ~58 km from Grassy Mountain.
Material Impact
  • Non-material. Staking a new exploration property with no initial assay results is routine for an early-stage explorer. It does not alter the financial outlook, valuation, or near-term catalyst pipeline.
