Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc. (CSE: NOP; OTCQB: NOPFF) reported additional positive assay results from drill hole MM26-9 at its wholly owned Murdock Mountain project in Elko County, Nevada. The company intersected the Upper Phosphate Zone with a weighted average grade of 10.73% P2O5 over a true thickness of 4.48 meters, supporting the continuity of phosphate mineralization across the target area. The hole also returned 8.18% P2O5 over 1.0 meter in the Lower Phosphate Zone, while drill hole MM26-10 is nearing completion approximately 1.5 kilometers southwest in a previously untested area.
The company said the latest results reinforce its geological model despite weaker results from MM26-8, which it views as a localized anomaly. Nevada Organic Phosphate added that all analytical work was completed by ALS Laboratories under ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standards, with company and laboratory quality assurance and quality control programs confirming the reliability of the reported assay results.

Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc. (CSE: NOP) (OTCQB: NOPFF) is a junior exploration company with an organic sedimentary raw rock phosphate bed, 6.6 kilometers long, in northeast Nevada. Additional applications extend the potential strike of rock phosphate to over 30 kilometers. This is believed to be the only known large-scale organic sedimentary phosphate project in North America. It is situated close to the main highway to Montello/Elko, Nevada, and near the rail head to California. The latest news and updates relating to NOP are available in the company’s newsroom at https://nnw.fm/NOP.
These results are significant because they confirm the continuity of high-grade phosphate mineralization at Murdock Mountain, which could support the project's economic viability. The company's ability to identify and delineate a large-scale organic sedimentary phosphate deposit is important given the strategic importance of phosphate for agricultural fertilizers and other industrial uses. The positive assays from MM26-9, combined with the ongoing drilling at MM26-10, suggest that the project may contain substantial resources, potentially positioning Nevada Organic Phosphate as a key domestic supplier in a market heavily reliant on imports.
