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, highlighting continued strong phosphate mineralization. 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 important because they confirm the consistency of phosphate mineralization at Murdock Mountain, a key factor for the project's potential development. Phosphate is a critical mineral used primarily in fertilizers, and with growing global demand for food security, domestic sources of phosphate are strategic. The project's location near infrastructure in Nevada enhances its economic viability. The company's ability to intersect high-grade phosphate zones in multiple drill holes supports the geological model and reduces exploration risk. Investors and stakeholders will be watching for results from MM26-10, which could expand the known mineralization into new areas. The quality assurance protocols add credibility to the reported assays, which is crucial for junior explorers seeking to advance projects.
