| At this point in a metals and mining bull market, most people believe the easy money has been made.
|
| And they’re largely correct. The big producers have doubled or tripled in price...the gold project developers that were selling for $10/ounce in the ground are now trading for $30-$40...and the well-positioned exploration companies that had C$5-C$10 million market caps are now trading for C$20-C$30 million.
The days of finding an exploration company with good projects for under C$6 million are long gone.
...Or maybe not.
Because Lodestar Metals (LSTR.V; SVTNF.OTC) currently sports a market value of under C$6 million. And that fact seems amazing in light of what this company has to offer:
|
| • Gold and silver projects in the top mining jurisdiction of Nevada...
• Drill-ready targets with historical results, surrounded by world-class deposits...
• A proven management and exploration team...
• Significant funding in the bank...
• A drum-tight share structure...
• And again, all with a market value still under C$6 million!
|
| So why so cheap? The answer lies in a brief but compelling story...
|
| Taking Advantage Of A New Bull Market
|
| Until this year, the junior mining market was in a funk. Even companies with outstanding properties weren’t drilling, because the market simply wasn’t rewarding them for good results.
|
| But that all changed as, finally, the big miners began to respond to the soaring gold price, and eager investors began bidding up the share prices of the junior explorers.
|
| Lodestar’s management team began looking for new projects to take advantage of this exciting new, bullish environment. They have extensive contacts throughout the industry and, as luck would have it, an exceptional gold exploration project came available...in Nevada of all places.
|
| Management quickly seized that opportunity...consolidated the company’s share structure one-for-two...and turned to their network to fill the treasury with a C$1.5 million financing.
|
| That financing was completed last week, having been upsized twice to accommodate the demand. It will provide more than enough funding to get Lodestar out of the starting blocks once again. With the $1.5 million in proceeds, the geologists are developing a plan to deploy about $1 million in the near to medium term.
|
| The good news for potential shareholders today is that virtually no one is yet aware of this new Nevada exploration play.
|
| And that means anyone getting in now is getting in on the ground floor.
Even better: They won’t have to wait long for news....
|
| Project No. 1:
The Drill-Ready Goldrun Project
|
| Consisting of 75 unpatented claims in Humboldt County, Nevada, the Gold Run project is in a similar, structurally complex geological setting to the Turquoise Ridge mine, also within the Getchell gold trend.

The Goldrun project features numerous targets that have returned very significant drill intersections and sampling results.
|
| Gold Run has a history of exploration and small-scale gold production going back to the 1860s, and previous operators have drilled 131 holes totaling 17,823 meters.
When you review what those drill holes turned up, you understand how fortunate Lodestar was to be able to snatch up this project:
|
| • Robbers Knob target: Up to 18.3 meters at 4.3 g/t gold, including 1.5 meters at 37.8 g/t gold
• Gomes prospect: 13.7 meters at 1.3 g/t gold, including 1.5 meters at 5.1 g/t gold
• Grindstone Flats target: 13.7 meters at 1.5 g/t gold, including 1.5 meters at 32.5 g/t gold
• Crown North prospect: 27.4 meters at 9.7 g/t gold, including 1.5 meters at 130.5 g/t gold (considered to be the northern extension of Nevada Gold Mines’ Adelaide-Crown deposits).
|
| With results like that — in a key mining camp in Nevada — the upside potential at Gold Run is obvious. But there’s also much more....
|
| Project No. 2:
Eureka Silver District
|
| Lodestar is intent on expanding its property portfolio in Nevada, and was recently able to secure through its network an exclusive agreement to negotiate an option on silver-focused unpatented claims in West Eureka, Nevada.
These claims are in the midst of the Battle Mountain-Eureka trend, in a region known for big deposits.
|

Lodestar is negotiating an option to acquire a number of well-positioned claims in the historic Eureka silver district of Nevada.
|
| The company’s geological team is attracted to these claims because of strong historical sampling results, including 278 g/t silver and 1.1% copper (Silver King target), 277 g/t silver and 2.7% copper (Angel target) and 254 g/t silver, 0.4 g/t gold and 7.7% lead (Jag prospect).
Lodestar isn’t stopping there and has announced that it has entered into an exclusivity agreement on silver projects in the Eureka Silver District, home of the second-largest silver producer in Nevada history.
Stay tuned for more to come....

| Drum-Tight Share Structure Supercharges Potential
|
| Getting in early on a new exploration play often means you can benefit from the kind of tight share structure that allows for big returns once news begins to flow.
|
| That’s certainly the case with Lodestar, which features less than 44 million shares outstanding, and just 57.82 million out on a fully diluted basis, post-rollback.
|
| That’s a mere fraction of the shares outstanding for the vast majority of the company’s peer group. With so few shares out, any significant buying pressure could dramatically lift the company’s share price.
|
| Drill Ready Targets
|
| Another key to the excitement around Lodestar is that shareholders won’t have to wait long for news — Goldrun features identified, high-grade targets just waiting for the drill bit.
|

The Robbers Knob target on the Goldrun project features remarkable historical drill results, and Lodestar will be following up on these in the near future.
|
| The company recently put out soil sampling at its 100%-owned Goldrun property, and has delineated three extensive gold-silver anomalies with significant scale potential, including three extensive one-kilometer-scale gold-silver soil anomalies across the property — take a peek at the October 28, 2025, press release for that one.
Following up on that, the team is planning roughly 10 holes by early next year, focusing on twinning historic high-grade hole and expanding known targets.
It all adds up to considerable news flow over the months just ahead, with the chance that some of it could be very, very good.
|
| Ground-Floor Potential
|
| It’s exceedingly rare to find a junior exploration company...focused in Nevada...with drill-ready targets following up on high-grade results...with under a C$6 million market cap.
|
| Simply put, this kind of opportunity seems unlikely to last long in today’s red-hot metals and mining market.
|
| That means smart investors will act immediately to begin their due diligence on Lodestar Mining.
