Kimberly Ann, Lahontan Founder, CEO, President, and Director commented: "The opportunistic staking of these claims gives Lahontan needed space for future mine infrastructure as well as covering logical extensions of known gold and silver mineralization in the Slab-Calvada area. While other companies are struggling under the current market conditions, Lahontan is fully financed and taking advantage of opportunities to grow our projects when the situation presents itself. The Santa Fe Mine now covers over 26.4 km2 adding to the 64.1 km2 the Company controls in Nevada's prolific Walker Lane. Lahontan will continue preparing its West Santa Fe project for drilling in 2024, completing its Plan of Operation for the Santa Fe Mine, and targeting a PEA for Santa Fe in 2024".
