Orogen Royalties Sells the Celts Gold Project to Eminent Gold
Orogen Royalties (TSXV:OGN)(OTCQX:OGNRF) has signed an agreement to sell its Celts gold project in Nevada to Eminent Gold. The deal includes a total payment of US$400,000 in cash and/or shares, plus a 3% NSR royalty, of which 1% can be purchased for US$1.5 million. Under a previous alliance agreement with Altius Minerals, the proceeds will be split evenly, with each party receiving US$200,000 and a 1.5% NSR royalty.
The 560-hectare Celts project, located 13km northeast of the Goldfield district, features an 800-meter diameter zone of advanced argillic alteration. The project shows geological similarities to the Silicon deposit, where Orogen holds a 1% NSR royalty. While there's no gold at surface in the steam cap, peripheral gold samples up to 33 grams per tonne have been found in quartz veins.

About the Celts Gold Project
The 560-hectare Celts project is located in southeastern Nevada, thirteen kilometres northeast of the historic high-sulphidation Goldfield district and one-hundred kilometres northwest of the Silicon discovery (Figure 1). Celts contains a cell of advanced argillic alteration that is recognized to be steam heated alteration within a low-sulphidation system. The steam cap remains undrilled.
The alteration cell at Celts is centered on a Tertiary rhyolite dome with an eight-hundred metre diameter zone of alteration composed of alunite and kaolinite interspersed with regions of fine-grained silica flooding (Figure 2). Celts could be one of the few epithermal systems in Nevada associated with slab window magmatism, like the Silicon (3.4Moz of indicated and 800Koz inferred gold resources) and Merlin (9.05Moz gold resource inferred) deposits, where Orogen holds a
Similar to the Silicon deposit, there is no gold at surface in the steam cap, but peripheral gold, including grab samples up to 33 grams per tonne, occurs in quartz veins associated with illite and adularia at lower elevations one to two kilometres from the dome (Figure 2). Taken together, the central steam cap and peripheral gold-bearing mineralized structures define a four-square kilometre mineral system.
The property is on road-accessible BLM land with a clear and unencumbered pathway to drill testing.
