Executive Summary

  • Bitterroot Resources Ltd. has resumed drilling at its 100%-owned Nighthawk Gold/Silver Project in west-central Nevada.
  • The drilling program aims to test up to five targets for structurally-controlled epithermal gold/silver mineralization.
  • Target refinement was conducted during a previous pause using ambient and active seismic geophysical surveys to improve resolution.

Key Details

  • Project Location: Nighthawk Gold/Silver Project, located on BLM-managed Federal land, approximately 25 miles west of the historic Tonopah gold/silver district in the Walker Lane Belt of west-central Nevada.
  • Drilling Scope: The program is expected to test up to five specific targets.
  • Technical Methodology: Drilling focuses on structurally-controlled epithermal gold/silver mineralization. Previously identified targets were refined using ambient/active seismic geophysical surveys and proprietary processing software to enhance target resolution.
  • Project Context: The Nighthawk Project is contiguous with A2 Gold's Castle Project, which includes the past-producing Boss Mine and the undeveloped Castle, Berg, and Black Rock gold deposits.
  • Company Portfolio Context: Bitterroot also holds a 51% interest in the LM Nickel/Copper Project in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and a 5.9% stake in Perseverance Metals Inc.
