Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc. (CSE: NOP; OTCQB: NOPFF; FSE: Z58) has reported that drill hole MM26-12 intersected 37.4 metres of the target Meade Peak Member, with oolitic zones characteristic of the Upper Phosphate Zone observed during core logging. The hole is located approximately 200 metres southwest of MM26-11, and its completion extends the confirmed strike length of the target zone to more than 3.5 kilometres. The announcement, disseminated on behalf of Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc., signals continued progress in validating the company's geological model at the Murdock Mountain Project in northeast Nevada.
The significance of the result lies in the growing footprint of the target zone. A strike length exceeding 3.5 kilometres suggests a substantial mineralized system, and the presence of oolitic zones characteristic of the Upper Phosphate Zone provides visual confirmation of the intended target. However, assay results are still pending and will be needed to confirm the true thickness and phosphate content of the Upper Phosphatic Zone. Until those assays are received, the intersection remains a geological observation rather than a definitive grade statement. Investors and stakeholders will be watching for those results to understand whether the visual mineralization translates into economic phosphate concentrations.
CEO Robin Dow said the results represent continued progress in validating the company's geological model. That model is central to the investment case because it guides where future drilling is conducted and supports the interpretation that the phosphate-bearing horizon is continuous across the property. Director Garry Smith noted improved drilling productivity and completion of MM26-12 without significant complications, a detail that matters for cost control and operational momentum as the company advances its exploration program.
Nevada Organic Phosphate is a junior exploration company with an organic sedimentary raw rock phosphate bed, 6.6 kilometres long, in northeast Nevada. Additional applications extend the potential strike of rock phosphate to over 30 kilometres. The company believes this is the only known large-scale organic sedimentary phosphate project in North America. Its location close to the main highway to Montello/Elko, Nevada, and near the rail head to California, could offer logistical advantages if the project advances toward development.
