Black Mammoth Metals Corp
Black Mammoth Metals explores a portfolio of gold and silver properties in Nevada and Idaho. The 100%-owned Amador Silver property (Nevada) recently received final approval to drill test priority targets, while the nearby Mustang Gold-Silver property has returned an extensive ground-gravity anomaly along an 8.4 km stretch of the Walker Lane trend. The company also holds the Leadore Silver-Lead-REE property (Idaho, IP survey completed) and the Blanco Creek Gold property in Idaho's Elk Creek Mining District, hosting three historic underground mines.

Lifecycle Milestones
Jurisdiction (40%)9/10
Nevada: Fraser PPI 2025 is 100.00 of 100 (rank 1 of 68), which maps to 9 on this site's scale. Nevada, USA — top-tier US mining jurisdiction on the prolific Walker Lane trend; the company also holds gold-focused ground in Idaho.
Infrastructure (40%)No verified figure
Researched with nothing found: no source we could cite confirms or rules out an existing mill, road access, grid power, or tailings facility at Amador Silver & Mustang Gold-Silver Properties, Nye County, Nevada (checked Sep 30, 2026; recheck due Mar 29, 2027). Counts at a neutral 5/10 until one does.
Nearby producing mine (20%)Not yet researched
No project coordinates on file yet, so distance to a producing mine can't be measured.
Acquisition Susceptibility
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal in the research, a producer that already owns part of the company, is scored from its disclosed strategic shareholders. A producer that is a joint-venture or earn-in partner on the project, rather than a shareholder, isn't captured yet.
How this score is built
- Disclosed pending dealSub-score: Not scored
No pending acquisition or merger disclosed (checked)
Not scored: having no deal in flight isn't held against a company.
Weight 26.25% - Producer's strategic stakeSub-score: Not scored
No producer holds a disclosed stake on file (holder register researched) See holders
Not scored: most juniors that do get bought had no prior toehold, so a missing stake says little either way.
Weight 25% - Distance to a producing mineSub-score: Not yet researched
Distance not yet researched: no project coordinates on file
Distance can't be measured without coordinates, so excluded rather than counted as far.

Reports, Presentations & Documents
Black Mammoth Metals explores gold and silver properties in Nevada and Idaho and has no mineral resource. Its 100%-owned Amador silver property in Nevada received Bureau of Land Management approval on 31 March 2026 to drill up to six sites targeting an IP anomaly over a high-grade silver shear zone more than 1.22 km long, and the nearby Mustang gold-silver property has an 8.4 km gravity anomaly along the Walker Lane trend. At its newly identified West Reveille discovery in Nevada, rock samples returned up to 2,610 g/t silver along a zone of about 2 km, with IP surveys planned before any drilling. The company also holds the Leadore silver-lead-REE property and the Blanco Creek gold property in Idaho, and closed a private placement in July 2026 to fund drilling across its properties.
