Lahontan Gold Corp. Secures Key BLM Permit, Commences Drilling at West Santa Fe Project

Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSX.V: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF) has entered what company leadership describes as a transformative phase after securing a key permit from the Federal Bureau of Land Management for its West Santa Fe drill program. The permit grants the company access to unpatented lode mining claims on federal lands, covering approximately half of its land package at the site located 13 kilometers from its Santa Fe Mine project. This regulatory milestone unlocks a new vista of opportunities for the Canadian mineral exploration company focused on gold and silver projects in Nevada's Walker Lane district.

Building on this approval, Lahontan has commenced its reverse-circulation drilling campaign at West Santa Fe, aimed at validating historic drill data and advancing the project toward resource definition. The company operates at the intersection of exploration, geological expertise, and strategic project development, with recent completion of drilling at the nearby Santa Fe Mine positioning it for an updated mineral resource estimate and future economic studies. According to CEO Kimberly Ann, "I do believe the next 6 to 9 months are going to be a transformative year for the company."

The significance of this development extends beyond immediate operational progress. With these updates, Lahontan Gold Corp. is strategically positioned to maximize its mission to advance gold and silver projects in Nevada's Walker Lane, maximizing resource potential and stakeholder value. The West Santa Fe project represents a critical component of the company's exploration portfolio, and the BLM approval represents a substantial regulatory hurdle cleared.
