Richmond Mountain Gold Project Optioned To Stallion Gold

VANCOUVER - EMX Royalty Corporation reported the execution, by its wholly-owned subsidiary Bronco Creek Exploration Inc., of an exploration and option agreement for the sale of Richmond Mountain LLC, the owner of the Richmond Mountain gold project to Stallion Gold Corp..

Richmond Mountain is a Carlin-style gold project located in the Eureka district of central Nevada. The Eureka district hosts both Cretaceous age base metal mineralization as well as younger, Eocene age Carlin-style mineralization and is one of a select few districts with multi-million-ounce Carlin-style gold deposits in the state1. The Project was acquired by EMX and despite being within an established district has undergone only limited work consisting of geochemical sampling and a shallow reconnaissance drill program which did not test the key target area. The Eureka district has recently seen a resurgence in major exploration activity with the acquisition of the past producing Ruby Hill Mine by i-80 Gold Corp. in 2021, and recent work by other junior companies in the remainder of the district.
