About Carlin

Carlin controls two 100% owned gold exploration properties in Nevada, the Cortez Summit property and Willow property, both containing Carlin-style gold targets. Cortez Summit lies about 1 kilometer north-east of the north end of Nevada Gold Mines' ("NGM") 13.0 M oz Goldrush deposit (43-101 Technical Report effective 12/31/21 prepared for Barrick by NGM) and east of Barrick's Fourmile 3.19 M oz resource (Barrick 2022 Annual Report). Cortez Summit is contiguous with Barrick and NGM claims on all sides. NGM has submitted a final Environmental Impact Statement for Goldrush and a Record of Decision was obtained in December 2023.

The Willow property is an early-stage project in Elko County north of the town of Wells, Nevada. Willow is located within a potential new gold belt that contains the Long Canyon mine operated by NGM.

Carlin recently acquired the IVY copper-gold property in northeastern Nevada through the purchase of a 100% interest of a core claim group from a private party and additional claim staking by Carlin.
