Bayan Mining and Minerals (ASX:BMM) has kicked off a reconnaissance and sampling program at its multi-minerals Bayan Springs project in Nevada, where the focus will be on exploration for gold and silver mineralisation.

Listen to the HotCopper podcast for in-depth discussions and insights on all the biggest headlines from throughout the week. On Spotify, Apple, and more.

The fieldwork will concentrate on high-priority targets identified through hyperspectral imagery and desktop geological studies completed by Dahrouge Geological Consulting USA Ltd and Dirt Exploration.

The program getting underway represents “a key step in progressing the project potential for gold and silver mineralisation,” executive director Fadi Diab said.

According to these studies, the project holds several zones containing spectral signatures associated with antimony (stibnite), sulphur, illite, and hydrogen anomalies, indicative of potential silver, antimony, and gold mineralisation.

Mr Diab said: “The integration of advanced satellite imagery, historical data, and field validation is aimed at prioritising targets for potential follow-up work.

“We look forward to sharing updates with shareholders as soon as results are available.”
