Nevada North Lithium Project
Project Overview
The Best Lithium Address in America
The story of the Nevada North Lithium Project (NNLP) is one of discovery and national purpose. Owned 100% by Surge Battery Metals, it is located in the heart of the world’s most famous mining jurisdiction, the NNLP is not just another lithium prospect, it is the highest-grade lithium clay resource in the United States.
Our mission is clear: to secure America’s mineral independence. By targeting high purity lithium chemicals, Surge Battery Metals is positioning itself as a critical supplier for the next generation of electric vehicles. The project is at the forefront of securing domestic supply, contributing significantly to the sustainable future of the global energy transition.

Geology & Mineralization
Nature’s High-Grade Gift
The 2025 drilling program at the Nevada North Lithium Project (NNLP) significantly expanded the deposit’s footprint, confirming high-grade, near-surface lithium claystone across a 4.3 km strike length. Key step-out hole NNL-037—drilled 640m southeast—returned 30.6m at 4,196 ppm Li, while other intercepts reached up to 70.5m at 3,432 ppm Li.
The basin remains open to the south and east, with consistent lithium-rubidium-cesium correlations de-risking further exploration. These results will support resource upgrades and the upcoming 2026 Pre-Feasibility Study, reinforcing NNLP as a premier, large-scale domestic lithium asset.

The Refining Advantage
Our 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) isn’t just about mining, it’s about refining. We’ve developed a process that produces high purity lithium chemicals suitable for battery manufacturing.
High Recovery Rates
We have achieved an 82% lithium recovery rate, ensuring that we extract the maximum value from every ton of clay.

Low Deleterious Elements
NNLP’s clay chemistry is remarkably clean, with low levels of impurities like arsenic and mercury. This simplifies the refining process and keeps our environmental footprint small.
