NevGold Reports Up to 53.7% Antimony in Surface Samples at Limousine Butte

NevGold Corp. reported surface sampling results from the Pre-Strip Dump at its Limousine Butte Project in Nevada, with assays showing up to 53.7% antimony and fourteen samples exceeding 2% antimony.

The company conducted a surface grid and grab sampling program on the historical Pre-Strip Dump, material that was not processed during the 1989-1990 Golden Butte pit mining operation. The results underscore the significant high-grade antimony potential at surface. After the surface sampling, NevGold completed a test-pit sampling program consistent with the methodology used on the high-grade antimony zones elsewhere on the property.

For gold and precious metals traders, antimony is often a by-product of gold mining and can enhance project economics. The Limousine Butte Project also hosts gold mineralization, and the antimony results may indicate broader polymetallic potential. Traders monitoring critical mineral supply chains note that antimony is classified as a critical mineral by the U.S. government, adding strategic value to discoveries.

Looking ahead, NevGold plans to continue exploration and sampling to define the extent of antimony mineralization. Investors will watch for further assay results and any resource estimation updates. The company's ability to delineate a significant antimony resource could attract strategic partnerships or offtake agreements, given the metal's importance in defense and technology applications.
