Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc. (CSE: NOP; OTCQB: NOPFF) has commenced its 2026 exploration program at the Murdock Mountain Phosphate Project in northeastern Nevada, following the completion of required wildlife and sage-grouse pre-clearance surveys. The company is advancing drill pad construction and preparing to resume drilling to evaluate the strike extent, thickness, continuity, and grade of the phosphate zone. This work builds on consistent mineralization identified during the 2025 program, as the company refines its geological model to support future resource classification while maintaining project timelines.
The Murdock Mountain project hosts an organic sedimentary raw rock phosphate bed measuring 6.6 kilometers long, with additional applications extending the potential strike to over 30 kilometers. This is believed to be the only known large-scale organic sedimentary phosphate project in North America. The project is strategically located near the main highway to Montello/Elko, Nevada, and close to a rail head to California, providing logistical advantages for future development.
Nevada Organic Phosphate is a B.C.-based junior exploration company focused on advancing this unique phosphate asset. The 2026 exploration program is a critical step in delineating the resource potential and moving toward a preliminary economic assessment. The company's systematic approach, starting with environmental pre-clearance, underscores its commitment to responsible exploration practices.
