About Black Ridge
Black Ridge (previously Carlin-East) is a Carlin-Type gold exploration project located within the prolific Carlin Trend. The project area straddles Eureka and Elko counties in Nevada and is comprised of 422 contiguous federal lode claims and fee lands totaling 35 km² of mineral rights. Historic and currently producing mines nearby include the Goldstrike, Leeville-Turf, Meikle-Rodeo, and Genesis-Bluestar operations. Exploration over the past 30 years was sporadic and restricted to gravity geophysics, surface geochemistry and shallow drilling (<1000′) that never reached its intended Lower Plate target. Ridgeline’s 2019 drilling program confirmed its conceptual Lower Plate model with the first hole (CE19-001) by intersecting anonymously altered and mineralized Rodeo Creek Formation (Lower Plate) host rocks at 790 vertical meters. Nevada Gold Mines announced the North Leeville discovery in Q2, 2020 which is directly on-trend of both Leeville-Turf and Carlin-East. Ridgelines 2021 drill prog

Ridgeline Minerals Provides Assay Results for the Black Ridge Gold Project, Nevada & Drill Program Update for the Swift Gold Project, Nevada
A single deep core hole at the Black Ridge gold project on Nevada's Carlin Trend, drilled by operator Nevada Gold Mines to 1,109 m, returned 0.8 m grading 0.113 g/t gold from 972.8 m in sulfidized Popovich formation, with lower-plate Rodeo Creek host rocks hit at 773 m vertical depth. NGM has spent US$1,071,000 of the US$4,500,000 required by July 14, 2028 to earn 60%. At Swift, assays are pending
