The Bureau of Land Management has accepted three additional Applications to Prospect from Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc. (CSE: NOP; OTCQB: NOPFF), adding 6,011 acres to the company's existing 1,813-acre Nevagro permit at the Murdock Mountain property in northeast Nevada. This expansion extends the potential strike of rock phosphate to over 30 kilometers, according to the company's press release.
Nevada Organic Phosphate is a junior exploration company focused on what it believes to be the only known large-scale organic sedimentary phosphate project in North America. The Murdock Mountain property hosts a sedimentary raw rock phosphate bed measuring 6.6 kilometers long, with additional applications now extending the potential strike significantly. The company is advancing environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) while continuing exploration work, including drilling that has returned average grades of 10.95% P2O5.
The expansion is a critical step toward building a potential NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate, which would provide a standardized measure of the project's mineral resources. The property is strategically located close to the main highway to Montello/Elko, Nevada, and near a rail head to California, offering logistical advantages for future development.
Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc. (CSE: NOP) (OTCQB: NOPFF) is positioning itself as a key player in the phosphate market, with the Murdock Mountain project representing a significant domestic source of organic phosphate. The company's progress in expanding its footprint and advancing environmental reviews underscores the importance of this project for North American phosphate supply.
