The California Gold Rush of 1848-1855 marked a pivotal moment in history, triggering a frenzied pursuit of wealth that would forever alter the landscape of global gold production. Surprisingly, over 90 percent of the world's gold has been extracted from the Earth since those heady days when gold nuggets were discovered at Sutter's Mill. The rush for riches drew prospectors from all corners of the globe to California, sparking a feverish pursuit that led to the extraction of substantial gold deposits. This unprecedented demand not only transformed California but also set the stage for a seismic shift in global gold mining. The technologies and methods developed during the California Gold Rush paved the way for large-scale industrial mining operations, enabling the extraction of gold on an unprecedented scale. Over the subsequent decades, mining expanded to other gold-rich regions globally, such as South Africa, Australia, and Alaska. This surge in mining activities post-California Gold Rush underscores the enduring impact of historical events on resource extraction, shaping the trajectory of the global gold industry for generations to come. Today, as we marvel at the gleaming metal in jewelry and financial reserves, we are reminded that the rush for California gold not only left a lasting legacy in the state but also laid the groundwork for the gold industry's dominance on the world stage.

The ministry of mines has released a draft notification proposing to amend the Mineral (Auction) Rules, 2015, with the objective of boosting participation in the auction of mineral blocks. The amendment suggests a cap on the performance security and upfront payment for bidders in the auctions, specifically targeting blocks of strategic and critical minerals.

Nevada, known as “The Silver State” thanks to 19th-century silver discoveries, might soon need a new nickname. In recent decades, Nevada has become a gold powerhouse, producing 84% of the U.S. gold annually. Nevada’s Walker Lane Trend hosts some of the most recent major gold discoveries, attracting top mining companies for its high-grade deposits, growing reserves, and immense discovery potential. This trend, key since the 1859 Comstock Lode discovery, continues to shape Nevada's mining legacy. Lincoln Gold is poised for transformation with two advanced-stage projects in the Walker Lane Trend, making our transition from exploration to gold production. Our Bell Mountain project is fully permitted and awaiting TSXV's final acquisition approval, while Pine Grove is nearing the end of its permitting process.
