Subject to royalties, Columbus has a 100% interest in 26 precious metal projects, five of which are located along Nevada's prolific "Battle Mountain Gold Trend" of world class gold deposits. Three of these projects: the Utah Clipper, Crestview, and Laura properties are located in the heart of the Cortez Joint Venture (Barrick/RTZ) area of the Battle Mountain Gold Trend in close proximity to the +25 million ounce Gold Acres-Pipeline Mine Complex and near the recently announced discovery of the +9 million ounce Cortez Hills Deposit.
The Silver District in southwest Arizona hosts a (non 43-101 compliant) resource of approximately 18 million ounces of silver defined by past work. Approximately 80% of the identified resource occurs on Columbus Gold's Silver District Property.
Columbus is well positioned in a strong gold market to capitalize on the experience of its management and its existing strategic property position to rapidly build shareholder value through the development of its projects and additional acquisitions.
