- Gunpoint Exploration Ltd. is a Canada-based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of precious metal properties primarily in the United States; it holds a 100% interest in the flagship Talapoosa gold-silver project, a disseminated epithermal deposit comprising 535 unpatented lode mining claims covering approximately 14,870 acres in Lyon County, Nevada, within the Walker Lane gold trend, featuring an NI 43-101 measured and indicated resource of over 1.0 million ounces of gold and 13.6 million ounces of silver at average grades of 1.1 g/t gold and 15 g/t silver, plus 233,532 ounces of gold and 2.2 million ounces of silver in the inferred category; the project remains open along strike and supports district-scale exploration potential via the subparallel 7-kilometer Appaloosa trend, which hosts a broad hydrothermal epithermal gold system; early-stage properties exist in Mexico and Guatemala targeting gold, silver, copper, zinc, and lead deposits. Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, the company targets mining and investment sectors with operations centered in Canada for management, the United States for core assets, and select international sites. Recent developments include the launch in November 2025 of a 1,500-meter step-out drilling program at Talapoosa to test a newly identified 2,500-meter Ranch mineralized trend for potential resource expansion beyond the 1.2 million ounces of gold outlined 14 years ago; the closing on December 2, 2025, of a $3.35 million non-brokered private placement of 8,375,000 units at $0.40 each to fund Talapoosa exploration, development, property payments, and working capital, with significant insider participation including CEO Randy Reifel acquiring 2,500,000 units for approximately 16.9% undiluted ownership; the prior Newcrest option and earn-in agreement on Appaloosa, terminated by Newmont in March 2024 after US$5 million in 2023-2024 expenditures that identified significant near-surface oxide gold mineralization via soil sampling, geophysics, and drilling; and the November 2025 grant of 1,800,000 incentive stock options to directors, officers, and employees.
