Caution Regarding Historic Estimates
These historic estimates are provided for context only. Although prepared by reputable engineering consultants, Americore is not treating these estimates as current mineral resources. A Qualified Person has not completed sufficient work to classify the estimates as current, and there is no assurance that future work will confirm or upgrade these estimates.
Geological Setting
The Trinity Project sits within the Basin and Range Province on the western flank of the Trinity Range. Basement rocks consist of Middle-Triassic to Early-Jurassic deltaic sediments of the Auld Lang Syne Group, including phyllite, argillite, quartzite, and limestone. These units record regional deformation related to the Nevadan Orogeny, including folding, thrusting, and low-grade metamorphism.
A Cretaceous granodiorite stock northeast of the project marks the intrusive culmination of this orogenic event.
Above these basement rocks, extensive Tertiary volcanic sequences-including rhyolitic flows, welded tuffs, air-fall tuffs, and epiclastic units-host much of the known mineralization. Alteration associated with the system forms a large halo, extending over 1.6 miles from the primary mineralized area.
The property is structurally complex, with early Tertiary north- to northwest-trending faults and younger northeast-trending normal faults that act as key controls on mineralization.
Mineralization
Silver, lead, and zinc mineralization at Trinity is closely associated with a northeast-trending normal-fault corridor. Mineralization occurs within the hanging wall of this structure as:
- Veinlets
Fracture-controlled mineralization Disseminations within altered rhyolite
Breccia-hosted zones
Two principal mineralized domains are present:
Oxide Zone - historically mined by U.S. Borax. Underlying Sulphide Zone - extending below the pit and to the northeast.Sulfide minerals include pyrite, sphalerite, galena, marcasite, arsenopyrite, and silver-bearing species such as tetrahedrite-freibergite and pyrargyrite. Minor gold and accessory minerals are reported. Lead and zinc values offer potential by-product considerations, subject to future technical evaluation.
NEXT PHASE: MODERN, DATA-DRIVEN EXPLORATION
Americore will now advance a comprehensive, integrated exploration program including:
- Full digitization and reinterpretation of historic datasets
- AI-assisted structural and mineralization modeling
- Sampling and metallurgical testing of the historic stockpile
- Drilling to twin historic holes and confirm mineralization
- Targeting newly uncovered trends extending onto the Seka Claims
