The Bureau of Land Management has approved Solidus Resources’ Spring Valley Gold Mine Project in Nevada.
The company will conduct mining operations on public and private lands in Pershing County, approximately 20 miles northeast of Lovelock and 70 miles southwest of Winnemucca. Planned surface disturbance is about 6,232 acres – 4,123 acres are on BLM-managed public land and 2,109 acres on private land.
Projects like this support President Trump’s executive order 14241, Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production, to boost domestic mineral production and reduce U.S. reliance on foreign minerals, enhance national security, and create jobs.
Solidus Resources is approved to construct, operate, and maintain an open-pit gold mine, three waste rock facilities, and a heap leach facility. The project will employ a contractor workforce of approximately 130 employees during the initial two-year construction and approximately 250 full-time employees for the operations period. The total life of the project will be 21 years, including two years of construction, 11 years of mining, three additional years of ore processing, and five years of reclamation and closure activities.
