Bald Mountain is an open-pit mine with a large estimated mineral resource base located in Nevada along the southern extension of the prolific Carlin trend and was acquired by Kinross in January 2016.

In October 2018, Kinross acquired the remaining 50% of the Bald Mountain joint venture zone from Barrick Gold to consolidate ownership, of the property, the largest private mining land package in the U.S.

With approximately 3.6 million gold ounces of estimated measured and indicated gold resources (as of December 31, 2021) and a pipeline of high-quality targets, the Company is exploring further opportunities for additional resource conversions and exploration success.

Exploration is focusing on the North area, with targets such as the Zed-Williams, Wino, and Top UG upgraded to the advanced exploration stage due to the assays and intercepts received during 2021. The West Yankee and South Yankee targets advanced to drill testing, while the Dueces target will advance to drill testing in early 2022.
