About Bell Mountain Project
The Project is located in Churchill County, Nevada, approximately a three hour drive south-east from Reno. Bell Mountain has excellent access and is in a mining friendly county.
Lincoln is very familiar with the Project as it was part of Lincoln's group of projects several years ago, until it was optioned and sold to Eros. The Project is made up of 174 unpatented lode claims and is under the jurisdictions of the Bureau of Land Management and the State of Nevada. Bell Mountain is 100% controlled by Eros and has a gold and silver resource. The Project has all major permits in place to advance it through construction and into operations.
Bell Mountain is only a two hour drive from Lincoln's Pine Grove project, located in Lyon County, Nevada. The properties are close enough in distance so that one team of management, engineering, environmental, cultural, and administrative personnel could operate both properties and one recovery plant could handle both projects. Both projects are advanced-stage gold exploration projects with established resources and both projects have significant exploration potential. All these factors will help reduce overall capital and operating costs and will make for an exciting operating plan. For further details on Bell Mountain, please see the Company's website at
