Nevada Mining



The Humboldt River Basin in northern Nevada is the third largest producer of gold in the world and the largest producer of silver in the conterminous United States. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has recently completed a mineral resource assessment of the basin and northern Nevada that indicates that many areas in the region may contain significant undiscovered gold and silver deposits.
