Teels Marsh Lithium Project
Overview
The Teels Marsh project is situated in Mineral County, Nevada—a region rapidly becoming the center of the U.S. domestic lithium supply chain. The property covers 1,640 acres (100% owned by Surge Battery Metals) and sits within a large "playa" or evaporation pond. This specific location is strategically important as it lies just 48 miles northwest of Clayton Valley, home to North America’s only currently producing brine-based lithium mine.

The "Source" and "Sink"
Geological Foundation
The potential of Teels Marsh is built on a specific geological "recipe" for lithium brine:
The Source
The basin is surrounded by young volcanic centers, including Mono Craters and Long Valley. Millennia of volcanic activity deposited thick layers of volcanic ash (Bishop Tuff) into the basin.

The Trap
Because the basin is bounded by faults and is tectonically active, these ash beds act as highly permeable reservoirs (sponges) that can capture and hold lithium-rich fluids.

The Heat
Recent mapping by the University of Nevada, Reno, revealed a significant "geothermal anomaly." Temperatures just two meters below the surface reach 35°C (95°F), nearly double the normal background heat. This active geothermal heart suggests a system that is actively circulating and concentrating minerals.

Evidence and Exploration Results
The potential of Teels Marsh is built on a specific geological "recipe" for lithium brine:
Historic USGS Data
A previous survey reported lithium values as high as 850 ppm from springs near the basin's fault lines.

Permeability
Drill holes confirmed that the basin fill includes unconsolidated sands and volcanic ash—exactly the types of rock needed for a "permeable" system where brine can flow and be extracted.

Recent Sampling
Surge conducted a sampling program using powered augers to test depths beneath the sand dunes. Results showed lithium values ranging from 8.9 to 104.5 ppm, with the highest concentrations found downstream from the known thermal springs.

The High-Grade Advantage
Quality matters. We are targeting high-purity, technical-grade lithium carbonate—the "premium fuel" required for faster charging and longer battery life. We aren’t just mining; we’re powering American independence.

National Energy Security
Relying on overseas supply chains is a risk we can no longer afford. Developing the NNLP means securing "Homegrown Energy," ensuring the U.S. leads the green revolution rather than just consuming it.
