About Nevada Exploration Inc.
NGE is an exploration company focused on gold in Nevada. NGE is led by an experienced management team that has been
involved with the discovery of more than 30 million ounces of gold in Nevada.
NGE's team has spent the last decade integrating the use of hydrogeochemistry (groundwater chemistry) with conventional
exploration tools to develop a Nevada-specific regional-scale geochemistry exploration program. With innovative technology,
NGE has completed the world's largest groundwater sampling program for gold exploration, collecting more than 5,000 samples, to
evaluate Nevada's covered basins for new gold exploration targets. To advance follow-up targets, NGE has overcome the high
drilling costs that have previously prohibited the wide-spread use of drilling as a prospecting tool by developing its Scorpion
Drill Rig, Nevada's first truck-mounted small-diameter RC drill rig specifically tailored to the drilling conditions in Nevada's
basins (analogous to RAB drilling in other parts of the world).
By integrating hydrogeochemistry and early-stage low-cost drilling with conventional exploration methods, NGE is generating
and advancing a significant portfolio of gold exploration projects in Nevada. NGE and its exploration partners have now
drilled more than 18,000 metres on targets defined by its exploration program, and at several projects have discovered new large
hydrothermal systems, with spatial extents covering several square kilometres, defined by system-appropriate alteration in
bedrock over significant drill intervals (>100 feet) containing widespread low-level gold (>100 ppb) and supporting
trace-element lithogeochemistry consistent with the geologic and geochemical footprints of Nevada's large gold
deposits. These are the types of footprints that are associated with multi-million-ounce gold deposits in Nevada, and with
these results NGE believes that it has demonstrated the validity of its integrated exploration program to discover and advance
new high-quality gold targets in otherwise blind settings.
By overcoming the challenges and radically reducing the costs of exploring in Nevada's covered basins, NGE is taking
meaningful steps to open this important new search space up for district-scale exploration. NGE's business model is to
create shareholder value by leveraging its properties and technology through generative exploration, joint ventures, and other
exploration partnerships.
