- Western Exploration Inc. is a Nevada-focused precious metals exploration and development company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and advancement of gold and silver deposits. The company holds 100% ownership of the Aura gold-silver project in Elko County, Nevada, comprising approximately 12,848 acres across 709 unpatented lode mining claims; the project features three principal deposits including Doby George, a near-surface oxide deposit; Gravel Creek, with an updated inferred resource of 93,000 gold ounces; and Wood Gulch, a past-producing open-pit heap leach operation, collectively hosting an NI 43-101 compliant indicated resource of 610,000 ounces of gold and 3.367 million ounces of silver, plus inferred resources of 708,000 ounces of gold and 10.271 million ounces of silver. Operations target high-grade epithermal gold-silver systems, with ongoing reverse circulation and diamond drilling programs focused on the Tomasina Fault Zone and extensions of historic mineralization. Founded through a reverse takeover of Crystal Peak Minerals Inc. in December 2021 and headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, Western Exploration serves the North American precious metals market with established infrastructure including year-round highway access, nearby water, and electricity at the Aura project. The company is backed by strategic investors including Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. and maintains a strong cash position of approximately C$3.5 million as of late 2025. Recent developments include the initiation of a fully-funded 4,000-meter 2025 drill program in August targeting the 1.3-kilometer Tomasina Fault Zone down-dip from Wood Gulch and Saddle resources; confirmation in November 2025 of a new precious metals-bearing epithermal system with intercepts such as 3.0 meters grading 7.1 g/t gold; closure of a C$5 million private placement in June 2025; filing of an updated NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment for Doby George and Gravel Creek in June and October 2025, respectively, reflecting significant grade and ounce increases; and engagement of Stantec Consulting Services Inc. in November 2025 to prepare a Notice of Intent and Mine Plan of Operations to advance toward production. These activities position the company to expand its resource base toward targets exceeding 2 million ounces of gold and 30 million ounces of silver.
