Own a piece of nevada mining history

Offered for sale is a 20.66-acre unpatented federal lode mining claim

located in the historic Garfield Mining District of Mineral County, Nevada .

This property combines documented historic workings, visible mining development,

direct road access, mineralized rock exposures, and modern portable-XRF field screening

showing gold, silver, copper and additional polymetallic elements in selected samples.

This is not being presented as undeveloped desert acreage. It is an established mining

prospect within a historic Nevada district containing visible workings and documented

past exploration activity.

Property highlights

20.66-Acre Lode Claim

Mineral County, Nevada

Historic Garfield Mining District

Documented Historic Producer

Historic Underground Workings

Road Accessible

Approximately 40 Prospects

Three to Four Shallow Shafts

Gold, Silver & Copper Indicators

Polymetallic Exploration Potential

Portable-xrf field results

Selected mineralized rock samples collected from the property were screened in the

field using an Olympus Delta portable XRF analyzer . Photographs of

the instrument, sample material and displayed readings are included with this listing.

HIGHLIGHTED FIELD SAMPLE #3

Gold — Au

458 ppm

Silver — Ag

760 ppm

Copper — Cu

11.19%

For mathematical comparison only, 458 ppm Au equals approximately

13.36 troy ounces per short ton ,

and 760 ppm Ag equals approximately

22.17 troy ounces per short ton .

These conversions do not establish a certified ore grade.

FIELD SAMPLE #2

Gold — Au

97 ppm

Silver — Ag

42 ppm

Copper — Cu

5,983 ppm

Iron — Fe

58.77%

Zinc — Zn

12.06%

Exploration context: Portable-XRF screening indicated multiple elements

across selected samples, including gold, silver, copper, zinc, bismuth, manganese,

lead, nickel, tin and antimony. The presence and displayed concentrations of these

elements should be independently verified by an accredited laboratory before being

relied upon for technical or economic decisions.

Documented historic workings

Available historical records describe approximately:

Approximately 40 prospects

Three to four shallow shafts

Workings covering roughly one-third of a mile

A mineralized thrust contact reported at approximately five feet wide

Historic development and disturbed ground remain visible in the property photographs.

All underground openings, shafts, cuts and historic workings should be considered

dangerous and must not be entered without qualified professionals, proper equipment

and authorization.

Garfield mining district

The property is situated within Nevada's historic Garfield Mining District between

Hawthorne and Mina in Mineral County. The broader district is associated with historic

gold, silver, copper, lead, tungsten and antimony exploration and production.

The claim is situated within a portion of the Garfield Mining District containing

numerous documented historic mines, prospects and underground workings. The district

has been recognized for precious and base metal mineralization for well over a century

and continues to attract exploration interest today.

Established historic mining district

Numerous documented historic mines, prospects and underground workings are located

throughout the surrounding Garfield Mining District.

References to surrounding historic mining activity are provided for regional geological

and historical context only and should not be interpreted as evidence of mineralization

or economic potential on the offered claim.

Access & location

The property is accessible from the Garfield Flat Road area. Existing roads and tracks

provide practical access to the general claim area, subject to current road, weather,

land-management and seasonal conditions.

HISTORIC DISTRICT • EXISTING WORKINGS • ROAD ACCESS

Original development plan

Follow the existing workings toward the documented mining trend

When this property was originally acquired, the development concept was to advance

exploration from the existing existing historic workings in the direction shown by the arrow

in the accompanying maps and aerial images.

That direction trends toward a concentrated area containing numerous documented

historic mines, prospects and underground workings within the Garfield Mining

District. The broader district has a long history of mineral exploration and

production, making this corridor an attractive exploration target.

Exploration Thesis:

The original working hypothesis was that the mineralized structure associated with

the existing adit and historic workings may continue along the same general trend

toward the larger cluster of documented mines and prospects shown on the maps.

The intent was to continue mapping, sampling and, if supported by the results, advance

the underground workings in that direction, subject to proper engineering, permitting,

technical review, safety planning and confirmation that the mineralized structure

continued as expected.

This remains an exploration concept rather than a confirmed geological conclusion.

Additional professional mapping, systematic sampling, geophysics, drilling and

accredited laboratory analysis would be required to determine whether the underground

vein or mineralized system continues in that direction.

Why we are selling

This is a portfolio-allocation decision—not a distressed sale.

Since acquiring the property, our company has expanded into multiple active development

projects involving gold, lithium, manganese, rare earth elements, antimony and other

strategic minerals throughout the western United States.

With several projects already requiring significant time, management attention and

development capital, the property has remained largely inactive. Rather than continue

allowing the property to sit without being advanced, we have decided to offer it to a

buyer who may be in a better position to pursue the next phase of exploration.

If time and resources were unlimited, this is a property we would continue investigating.

Our decision to sell reflects the need to concentrate on projects already moving through

active development—not a lack of interest in the property's exploration potential.

exploration concept and does not establish the continuation of any vein, orebody,

mineral resource or economically recoverable deposit.

What the buyer receives

Transfer of the seller's interest in the mining claim

Available claim documentation and identifying information

Claim maps and location information

Available GPS coordinates

Reasonable assistance with transfer paperwork

Important ownership information

This sale concerns an unpatented federal lode mining claim .

It is not a sale of patented private land, a residence, or guaranteed surface ownership.

The purchaser receives the seller's transferable possessory mining-claim interest,

subject to applicable federal and state law, valid existing rights, land-management

requirements, annual maintenance obligations and all other applicable rules.

The buyer is responsible for independently confirming claim status, boundaries,

access, land status, maintenance requirements, county-recording requirements,

BLM requirements, environmental restrictions and intended-use permissions before bidding.

Exploration & xrf disclosure

Portable XRF instruments are field-screening tools. Results can be affected by sample

preparation, surface irregularities, mineralogy, particle size, moisture, calibration,

testing mode, matrix effects, testing duration and other factors. Portable-XRF results

are not substitutes for properly collected, documented and analyzed laboratory assays.

The readings shown were obtained from selected individual rock samples and are not

random, systematic or representative samples of the entire claim. They do not establish

average grade, continuity, tonnage, mineral resources, mineral reserves, mineability,

recovery, metallurgy or economic value.

No representation or guarantee is made that the property contains economically

recoverable minerals or will support profitable mining. Mining and mineral exploration

are speculative and require substantial additional investigation, permitting, technical

work and capital.
