Lahontan Gold Corp Advances Santa Fe Mine Project with BLM Approval

Lahontan Gold Corp has announced that the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has approved its Exploration Plan of Operations (POO) for the Santa Fe Mine Project. This approval allows the project to enter the environmental assessment phase under the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA).

The project covers over 12 km² and includes over 700 drill sites, with final approval anticipated in Q4 2025 for drilling in 2026.

CEO Kimberly Ann highlighted the significance of BLM's approval and the potential expansion of exploration capabilities throughout the project area. The company aims to unlock the untapped potential of Santa Fe and develop plans to resume production. Lahontan is committed to working closely with the BLM and permitting consultants to ensure a timely NEPA process.
