About Hycroft Mining

Hycroft Mining explores for and develops gold and silver deposits in the United States. The business centers on the Hycroft Mine, a single property combining patented and unpatented claims that together cover tens of thousands of acres in Nevada, positioning the company within precious metals extraction rather than active production sales at this stage.

Its holdings break down into 25 patented claims spanning roughly 1,855 acres alongside 3,249 unpatented lode and placer claims extending across about 62,298 acres. This property sits northwest of Winnemucca, roughly 54 miles from the town, forming the core asset through which the company pursues its exploration and development work.

Hycroft Mining is headquartered in Winnemucca, Nevada, close to the mine site itself. Its shares trade on the NASDAQ under the ticker HYMC.
