Highest Silver Grades in the World
7.5 million ounces at 8,582 g/t silver, drilling toward 30-100 million ounce potential. Operating the district's only permitted processor. Recently consolidated the Gowganda Silver Camp, adding nearly 3 million ounces of historical silver tailings to a growing district feed portfolio.
THE COMPOUND ADVANTAGE
Discovery Plus Processing
Nord combines high-grade silver exploration at Castle East, where drilling targets 30-100 million ounces, with the district's only operating processing facility. Our 23,400 sq ft TTL plant processes regional feeds through a primary crusher rated at 20 tonnes per hour, a downstream circuit handling approximately 20 tonnes per 8-hour shift, a 24 tonne-per-day gravity circuit, and a bullion furnace for silver and gold doré. A separately acquired 600 tonne-per-day modular gravity plant is available for deployment against legacy tailings inventories under Recovery Permit. Our Feed First approach prioritizes securing mineralized material before scaling capacity, a disciplined strategy in a sector often challenged by processing facilities lacking adequate feed
Castle Complex
7.5M oz resource expanding through 60,000m drilling. Underground access to broken ore plus high-grade tailings.
TTL Processing Hub
Operating 24 tonne/day gravity plant. Bullion furnace capacity: 1M+ oz silver annually. Former Ontario government facility.
Gowganda Silver Camp
Four historic mining leases consolidated. Approximately 1.94 million tonnes of tailings with a historical silver resource. Recovery Permit pathway advancing.
World-Class Drill Results
Multiple bonanza-grade intersections including 89,853 g/t, 70,380 g/t, and 50,583 g/t silver confirm potential for district-scale discovery at Castle East.

Corporate Presentation
Building Value Through Grade and Infrastructure
At 8,582 g/t silver, Castle East ranks among the world's highest-grade silver deposits. These grades, approximately 27 times the industry average, fundamentally alter project economics, requiring less tonnage and processing for equivalent metal production. The integration with TTL creates a reflexive opportunity where processing revenues fund continued exploration, while exploration success enhances processing opportunities.

TTL: From Government Lab to District Processing Hub
Acquired in 2020, Temiskaming Testing Labs served the district for decades, pouring millions of ounces for Agnico and Teck. Now upgraded with 20 tonne/hour crushing, 24 tonne/day gravity circuits, and 6,000 assay/month analytical capacity, TTL processes both company and third-party feeds from across the Cobalt-Gowganda camp. The facility is configured for zero-discharge operation and supports advanced metallurgical programs for complex concentrates.
Gowganda: District Consolidation
Nord recently consolidated the Gowganda Silver Camp through acquisition of four mining leases from Battery Mineral Resources, adding approximately 1.94 million tonnes of historical silver tailings to the company's feed portfolio. The Gowganda properties sit adjacent to Nord's existing Castle complex and are accessible to TTL for processing under the Recovery Permit framework.
Why Nord Leads
