EV Resources Acquires 100% of High-Grade Dollar Antimony Project in Nevada, USA

EV Resources Limited (ASX:EVR) (“EVR” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce it has secured 100% ownership of the historic Dollar Antimony Project, located in Nye County, Nevada – a Tier-1 mining jurisdiction strategically located near Military Metals Corp’s Last Chance Project. The project is comprised of 8 unpatented mining claims totalling 160 acres.


The acquisition underscores EVR’s strategy to secure critical mineral assets in North America, strengthening its position as a future supplier of antimony, a designated critical mineral in the United States essential for energy storage, and defence applications.

Acquisition Terms

  • EVR acquires 100% ownership of the Dollar Project from Strategic Minerals Inc, a Nevada-based mining investment group.
  • Consideration comprises US$50,000 refund of staking and administration fees and a 2% net smelter royalty (NSR) retained by the vendor.

Project Highlights

  • High-Grade Potential: Historical assays returned up to 40.63% Sb, with USGS modern sampling confirming values up to 10,000 ppm Sb (1.0%), alongside silver, lead, and copper credits.
  • Historic Workings: Development includes three adits (>400 ft total) and a 30 ft inclined shaft, providing direct access for future exploration.
  • Favourable Geology: Located on the eastern slope of the Toiyabe Range at the contact of Tertiary volcanics and Paleozoic sediments – a structural setting highly prospective for antimony mineralisation.
  • Proven District: Only 9 km south of Military Metals Corp’s Last Chance Antimony Project, highlighting a developing antimony camp in close proximity to US defence installations and Nevada’s military testing ranges.
  • Strategic Location: Road accessible, close to Nevada State Route 376, and within one of the world’s most mining-friendly jurisdictions.

EVR Non-Executive Chairman, Shane Menere, commented:

“The acquisition of the Dollar Antimony Project provides EVR with a 100% owned, high- grade, strategically located asset in the heart of Nevada’s Great Basin. With assays up to 40% Sb and a geological setting comparable to other world-class antimony deposits, Dollar represents an exceptional opportunity for EVR to position itself as a key player in the development of critical mineral supply chains in the United States. Its proximity to Military Metals Corp’s Last Chance Project underscores the emerging potential of the district as a new antimony hub.”

Magmatic Resources Pens Deal to Acquire Weebo Gold Project

Magmatic Resources (ASX:MAG) said on Monday (June 16) that it has entered into an agreement to acquire 100 percent of the Weebo gold project in Goldfields, Western Australia, for AU$1.7 million.

According to the company, Weebo covers 136 square kilometres, and the tenements of the project are held individually by Russell Geoffrey McKnight, Ross Frederick Crew and Christopher Crew.

Payment will be made in two stages: the first stage will be for 70 percent of the value across six exploration licences, and the second stage will cover the remaining 30 percent allocated to three exploration licences.


“The Company is extremely pleased to add to its portfolio of projects with this exciting new gold property superbly located in the heart of W.A’s Yilgarn Goldfields,” said David Richardson, Magmatic’s managing director.

“The prospectivity of this area is highlighted by the proximity to five large gold mines and we believe the project area is underexplored, offering a great opportunity for new discoveries.”

Located 30 kilometres southeast of Leinster and covering approximately 50 strike kilometres of the southern Yandal greenstone belt, Weebo sits in the middle of five gold mines, including Bellevue Gold’s (ASX:BGL,OTC Pink:BELGF) Bellevue operation, Vault Minerals’ (ASX:VAU,OTC Pink:REDLF) Darlot and Gold Fields’ (NYSE:GFI) Agnew-Lawlers.

Magmatic said that Weebo offers a suite of exploration targets, from advanced drill mineralisation trends to recently located surface geochemical anomalies. Multiple conceptual gold targets are present at the site as well.

Magmatic acquired its advanced gold-copper target portfolio from Gold Fields in 2014, with over 60 targets identified.

This past April, the company restarted diamond drilling at its fully funded Myall farm-in joint venture project with Fortescue (ASX:FMG,OTCQX:FSUMF). Magmatic provided an updated on the New South Wales-based asset on June 6, saying it was closing in on a potential new copper-gold porphyry discovery at Myall’s Calais target.

“(Weebo) complements our gold and copper focused projects in New South Wales,” the company said.

Drilling at Weebo is slated to commence in the September quarter, once the acquisition has closed.
