Flagship Carlin Gold-Vanadium Project, Nevada
The Carlin gold-vanadium project is located 6 miles south of the town of Carlin, Nevada, and within the Carlin Gold Trend, Nevada's most prolific gold mining trend, dominated by majors including Barrick and Newmont. The Project possesses strong infrastructure being only 6 miles by road to a major highway, rail hub, power and skilled mining work force.
Large-scale Carlin-style gold system below a PEA (Preliminary Economic Assessment)-stage vanadium resource in Carlin Gold Trend.
Best Site Conditions
- Vanadium Mineral Resource – Feb 2019 (80% Indicated)
- Indicated Resource: 303M lbs V2O5 (vanadium pentoxide) (24.64M tons grading 0.615% V2O5) and
- Inferred Resource: 75M lbs V2O5 (7.19M tons grading 0.520% V2O5)
- Large deposit – 35m (120ft) thick x 1,800m (6,000ft) long x 600m (2,000ft) wide
- High Vanadium grades – thick intercepts up to 1.5% V2O5
- Flat to shallow dipping
- Near surface (0-60m; 0-200ft) amenable to open pit mining

On November 13, 2024, Phenom Resources Corp. has provided an update on the developments of the Dobbin gold soil anomaly last reported Oct. 9, 2024. Prospecting and mapping had identified a 600-metre-long-by-200-metre-wide (2,000-foot-long-by-650-foot-wide) trend of similar alteration (significant veining and jasperoid), which was interpreted to be a faulted-off southwestern extension of the gold anomaly. Soil results from this new segment have been received with some positive results in gold and pathfinder elements that only partially defines the southwestern extension of the gold trend. Crews were dispatched yesterday to expand the soil grid to cover a 550-metre-by-200-metre (1,800-foot-by-650-foot) gap over the suspected remainder of the anomaly. Collective results will be reported once received.
The gold soil anomaly is at least 1.3 kilometres (4,300 feet) in length, with the potential to extend its length with new soil sampling under way. The anomalous gold zone is interpreted to be controlled by northeast-trending structures presumed to be subvertical, cutting through gently dipping Roberts Mountains formation carbonates, an important host for many Carlin-type gold deposits in central and northern Nevada.
On October 31, 2024, Private Japanese battery company MK Plus Co. Ltd. has achieved a milestone by securing $50-million (U.S.) of funding which will position it to build its first pilot plant in Japan for its vanadium solid-state batteries and advance its revolutionary fast charging low-cost vanadium battery business world-wide.
Phenom Resources Corp. owns a 5-per-cent equity interest in MK Plus.
Paul Cowley, president and chief executive officer of Phenom, states: "We congratulate MP Plus in securing this funding which will propel its business. Phenom shareholders will benefit from our equity interest in MK Plus as MK Plus grows and succeeds. It is exciting to have a broader position of the growing battery chain future."
On October 23, 2024, Drilling has commenced on Phenom Resources Corp.'s Crescent Valley gold project, 22 kilometres (13 miles) southwest of Carlin, Nev. The Crescent Valley gold project represents a high-grade, bonanza-vein gold prospect strategically located within the Northern Nevada rift flanking the southwest fringe of the Carlin gold trend in Northern Nevada.
Dave Mathewson, director and geological adviser to the company, states: "The Crescent Valley project represents the core portion of the largest quartz vein system in Nevada that I am aware of. The project has a setting remarkably similar to that of the Sleeper deposit located in Humboldt county, Nevada. The Sleeper mine was a high-grade gold mine operated by AMAX Gold from 1986 to 1996 and was considered the lowest-cost gold producer in the world in 1988 at $103/oz because of its open pit mined Bonanza vein and wall-rock gold grades which, combined, averaged 0.48 opt Au."
On October 09, 2024, Phenom Resources Corp. has provided an update on this recent round of soil results from sampling, the objective of which has been to expand the length of the strong, northeast-trending Dobbin soil anomaly initially reported Sept. 4, 2024. The Dobbin gold project lies 80 kilometres (49 miles) southwest of Eureka in central Nevada. New soil sampling results extend the gold anomaly from 900 metres (3,000 feet) to 1.3 kilometres (4,300 feet) in length. A large number of gold values in the anomaly assay between greater than 0.1 gram per tonne gold up to 2.73 grams per tonne gold (approximately 0.09 ounces per ton). The system footprint may be larger still.
Prospecting and mapping have identified a 600-metre-long-by-200-metre-wide (2,000-foot-long-by-650-foot-wide) trend of similar alteration (significant veining and jasperoid), which is interpreted to be a faulted-off southwestern extension of the gold anomaly. Soil sampling has been completed over this new segment. Assays are anticipated in two weeks.
The anomalous gold zone and southwestern extension are interpreted to be controlled by northeast-trending structures presumed to be subvertical, cutting through gently dipping Roberts Mountains formation carbonates, an important host for many Carlin-type gold deposits in central and northern Nevada.
On September 25, 2024, Phenom Resources Corp. to drill Crescent Valley Gold project in October. Permits and drill contractors are in place for a mid October start to the initial drilling campaign on Phenom Resources Corp.'s Crescent Valley gold project. The drill program follows positive results from an IP geophysical survey completed in August. The Crescent Valley gold project represents a high-grade, bonanza-vein gold prospect strategically located within the Northern Nevada rift flanking the southwest fringe of the Carlin gold trend in Northern Nevada.
Dave Mathewson, director and geological adviser to the company, states: "The Crescent Valley project represents the core portion of the largest quartz vein system in Nevada that I am aware of. The project is a low-sulphidation bonanza-vein epithermal gold opportunity with a setting remarkably similar to that of the Sleeper deposit located in Humboldt county, Nevada. The Sleeper mine was a high-grade gold mine operated by AMAX Gold from 1986 to 1996 and was considered the lowest-cost gold producer in the world in 1988 at $103/oz because of its open pit mined Bonanza vein and wall-rock gold grades which, combined, averaged 0.48 opt Au."
On September 11, 2024, Phenom Resources Corp. has released historic drill hole results from its recently optioned King Solomon gold project in central Nevada, 120 kilometres (75 miles) southwest of Eureka, Nev., and 38 km (24 miles) southwest for the company's Dobbin gold project. Over that last year, Dave Mathewson, company director and geological adviser, has deliberately and purposefully guided Phenom to build up a gold portfolio rivalled by few in Nevada with the acquisitions of the Crescent Valley, Dobbin and King Solomon gold projects.
Like Dobbin, with its recent news of its significant open-ended 900-metre-times-220-metre gold-in-soil anomaly, the King Solomon project covers a regional-scale Carlin-type gold system. To demonstrate the calibre of the King Solomon gold project, the company wishes to provide the attached table, highlighting 11 historic drill holes on King Solomon within an area 425 metres (m) by 250 m (1,400 feet (ft) times 820 ft). Of note are the shallow attractive and consistent thicknesses and grades to the intercepts. Nine of the 11 holes have intercepts starting less than 46 metres (150 ft) from surface and nine of the 11 holes ended in mineralization within the better host rock unit, the Paleozoic carbonates, demonstrating the open opportunity at depth.
Mr. Mathewson, accomplished gold finder, states: "There is excellent potential for discovery of significant Carlin-type gold deposits at King Solomon. Previous explorers appear to not have understood the full extent of and significance of the stratigraphy or gold model. Typical of earlier 1990s explorers, drilling was largely limited to shallow tests of 90 m to 122 m deep (300 to 400 feet) and was primarily focused on the potential within the overlying Tertiary volcanic rocks. Significant near surface gold intercepts within Tertiary volcanics which, noteworthy as they are, suggest a bigger potential within the underlying more permissive Paleozoic carbonate package. Earlier explorers barely penetrated into the more prospective rock units and only scratched the surface of this prospect. The carbonate sequence below the volcanics at King Solomon which I have identified include favourable gold host rock formations such as the Denay, Rabbit Hill, Roberts Mountain and Pogonip limestone formations, with a collective thickness well in excess of 1,000 feet. These rock units represent a very significant potential host package to gold deposits that have not been significantly drill tested here."
Mr. Mathewson continues: "Drilling to date has confirmed the Carlin-replacement-style of mineralization and intercepts have approached desirable gold grades. The presence of permissive host rocks, Carlin-style epithermal-style alteration and geochemistry of up to very high levels of arsenic, antimony, mercury and locally gold, all indicate gold deposit prospectivity. I lean strongly toward believing the existence of one or more gold deposits are present in the area."
September 4, 2024, Phenom Reports Strong Gold Results from its Dobbin Gold Project in Nevada. Phenom has identified a strong 900 metre (approx. 3,000 ft) long by 220 metre (approx. 720 ft) wide gold in soils anomaly with a large number of values between >0.1 g/t Au up to 2.73 g/t Au (approx. 0.09 oz/ton) on the Dobbin Gold Project.
