Surge Battery Metals Inc. (TSXV: NILI, OTC: NILIF, FRA: DJ5C) has successfully obtained approval for the (NNLP) Exploration Plan of Operations (EPoO) from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). This key milestone expands the project’s scope, allowing a significant increase in exploration activities.
Expansion of Exploration Activities at Nevada North Lithium Project
The approved EPoO permits up to 250 acres of surface disturbance for exploration and drilling, a substantial increase from the previous 5-acre limit. The Bureau of Land Management’s approval includes a positive Record of Decision (ROD) and a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the proposed exploration activities.

Under the approved plan, Surge Battery Metals will carry out various activities. These include constructing new roads, cross-country trails, and drill pads. The company will also conduct mineral exploration, infill drilling, metallurgical testing, hydrogeologic investigations, geotechnical studies, and geophysical surveys. These actions aim to enhance the understanding of the project area and its resource potential.
Commitment to Environmental Protection and Reclamation
Surge Battery Metals has emphasized its commitment to environmental protection throughout the exploration process. The company plans to implement measures to minimize environmental impacts and will begin reclamation activities concurrently with exploration. Once certain areas are no longer required for exploration, the company will initiate reclamation efforts.
Furthermore, Surge Battery Metals will post an appropriate bond to ensure that site reclamation is completed to the highest standards.
CEO Greg Reimer expressed the company’s satisfaction with the BLM’s decision and outlined plans for the upcoming drilling season. “We are excited about the approval of our EPoO permit application for the NNLP and are eager to begin our spring/summer drill program in 2025,” he said. Surge also plans to update its Mineral Resource Estimate in Q4 2025.
