Surface Metals CEO Steve Hanson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's Nevada-focused portfolio and plans to advance both its Cimarron Gold Project and Clayton Valley lithium project.
Hanson said Surface Metals is focused on developing North American resource assets, with a portfolio that includes the Cimarron Gold Project and two lithium properties, including a lithium resource near Silver Peak, Nevada.
At the Cimarron Gold Project, located about 25 miles south of Kinross Gold's Round Mountain mine, the company is preparing to test newly identified drill targets within a historic mining district. Hanson said previous exploration by Newmont and Echo Bay—later acquired by Kinross—returned shallow, high-grade gold intercepts that attracted the company's interest.
“What really attracted me to this project is Newmont and Echo Bay... had some really interesting drill intercepts, relatively shallow holes, but very, very high-grade gold,” Hanson said.
Surface Metals has reinterpreted historical exploration data, built a new 3D geological model, and identified multiple drill targets. The company plans to submit its Notice of Intent shortly, with permitting expected to take 90 to 120 days, targeting the start of drilling in fall 2026.
Hanson also highlighted the Clayton Valley lithium project, where Surface Metals has advanced the asset from grassroots exploration to a defined resource of more than 300,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE).
The company plans to continue direct lithium extraction (DLE) testing while advancing toward a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) over the next 12 to 24 months. Additional drilling may also be undertaken to upgrade portions of the resource into higher confidence categories.
Management believes the combination of near-term gold exploration and longer-term lithium development positions Surface Metals to benefit from growing demand for both precious and critical minerals.
