Conglomerate Mesa Project

The Conglomerate Mesa Project hosts structurally and stratigraphically controlled, sediment-hosted gold mineralization similar to the "Carlin-type" deposits of north-central Nevada. Four claim blocks have been acquired or staked within the project area totaling 331 claims, covering nearly ten square miles, including several mineralized gold zones identified by prior operators. The property was originally explored by a Fortune 500 corporation while it was within the Cerro Gordo Wilderness Study Area (WSA). The company withdrew from Conglomerate Mesa in 1993. Federal agencies dropped the property's WSA status the following year, removing significant impediments to future development. The core area of the Conglomerate Mesa property was explored subsequently explored by second Fortune 500 exploration company in 1995, with eight target zones identified, based partly on surface road cut channel samples. In 1997, they conducted a widely-spaced, 10-hole reverse-circulation drill program at Conglomerate Mesa. Later that year, the company made the decision to withdraw from the gold industry and the property was dropped.
