Fairchild Gold Acquires 72 Claims From Koba Resources Adjacent to Its Copper Chief Property at Goodsprings, Nevada
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA / ACCESS Newswire / February 11, 2025 / Fairchild Gold Corp. (TSXV:FAIR) ("Fairchild" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement to purchase, subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, 72 unpatented lode mining claims within and adjacent to Fairchild's Copper Chief Property (Cu-Au-Ag-PGEs-Co) located 35 km southwest of Las Vegas, Nevada (Figure 1). These new claims add significant deposit potential for Porphyry copper-gold, Antimony, and Gold-silver-PGEs targets and deposits on the property.
Figure 1: Fairchild/KOBA Acquisition (Outline of 72 lode mining claims purchased from Koba Resources)
Fairchild has made an agreement to purchase 72 mining claims from Koba Resources Ltd. (Australia) and Covada LLC (US:Nevada), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Koba. To consummate the purchase transaction, Fairchild will issue and deliver to Koba 3,000,000 FAIR shares of common stock at a deemed price of CDN$0.05 per share and grant to Koba a One Percent (1 %) Net Smelter Returns Royalty, of which 50% of this royalty may be repurchased by Fairchild at any time for a cash consideration of CDN$1,000,000. This agreement is subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.
Assets Acquired: The Koba claims contain several excellent mineral exploration targets that are additive to Fairchild's existing claims, including the December Mine antimony-gold prospect, the Poppy Shaft gold system, and the Fitzhugh Lee, Rose, Mobile and Columbia Mine porphyry copper-gold targets. Koba did a substantial amount of geochemical sampling and IP Geophysics, and Fairchild will be receiving this Koba database.
Figure 2: IP Geophysics performed by Koba
The Copper Chief Property is a good combination of a perfect geographic location, a 1-hour drive from Las Vegas, all the infrastructure in situ, with a geologically favorable environment; characterized by the existence of a set of multi-target, mainly Skarn-related mineralization, Carbonate Replacement Deposits with Porphyry-style potential, and multi-commodities like Cu-Au-Ag-PGEs.
Other critical metals, like antimony can be found on the property with a 4500 g/ton sample found at the December Mine in 2021. With this acquisition Fairchild Gold can now follow up on these and other findings without concern.
Copper Chief Targets: Fairchild is focused on the discovery of Porphyry Copper-gold systems (PCDs) and gold-silver-PGEs-antimony vein systems at Copper Chief. More than 15 old prospects and mines are located within the outline of the property. Several types and ages of mineral deposits are present. Fairchild's presently known targets are shown in Figure 3.
The #1priority target is the Copper Chief Porphyry which has very high-grade copper mineralization present at the surface in multiple places, and in skarn that may indicate a shallower PCD system. Other ranked targets are:
2025 Targets:
Sandy Veins Au-Ag-PGEs-Co |
Ironside Fault hosted Au-Ag-PGEs-Sb (December/Knickenbocker Mines) |
Copperside and Skarn/PCD |
Rose Mine PCD |
Columbia Mine PCD-Co |
Whale Cobalt Target |
Cu /Au Tailings |
*None of these targets have been previously drilled

About the Copper Chief Property
Situated in Nevada's renowned mineral belts, the Copper Chief Property stands out as a high-potential Cu-Au exploration project. With robust geochemical results and favorable geology, it presents a compelling case for continued exploration and investment.
CEO's Statement:
"This agreement with Koba Resources Ltd allows Fairchild to expand the Copper Chief asset with a high mineral potential area, where appropriate exploration surveys were conducted and generated an important database, including geological, geochemical and geophysical information. Fairchild's team will assess and reprocess this data, with the objective of confirming the potential for copper and gold, but not neglecting other critical metals like PGEs, antimony and cobalt.
The company will prioritize all the property targets, including the ones coming from this last acquisition, and refining the knowledge already acquired"
-Luis Martins, CEO of Fairchild Gold Corp.
