Additional Property Attributes

The Property is owned by Mr. John Heiser, Jr.. Approximately 1.25 acres of the Property was formerly used for placer mining using physical separation methods, the remainder of the Property is vacant land. The former mine site site is classified by the Nevada Bureau of Mining Regulation and Reclamation (BMRR) as a small mining operation, which is defined as an operation which disturbs less than 5 acres of land and does not remove from the earth more than 36,500 tons in any calendar year. Based on information provided by the BMRR, gold was extracted from the former mine site using a loader/backhoe, a grizzly classifier(s), a rotating trommel, a M7 separator, a portable placer plant with recycle water storage tank/fines bin, a dewatering screw, a single-lined pond and associated pumps and pipelines. Much of the equipment used during previous mining activities remains at the site. Several exploratory test pits and piles of waste rock/reject material are present throughout the Site. Test pits and waste piles were observed at several locations where tributary ravines and gullies intersect the Rose Canyon drainage channel. An approximate 12' deep, 25' wide, 150' long open trench is located near the entrance to the mine site. Miscellaneous debris are scattered throughout the Site. The site has an active BMRR water pollution control permit for mining site; however, no mining has been conducted at the site since the permit was issued. A feasibility study to construct a solar facility on the Property was conducted by Sunpower in May 2021 in cooperation with WNDD and Pershing County (Rose Gulch Solar Feasibility Study, May 2021).
