Goldstone LLC · Nevada · est. 1989
Goldstone LLC offers gold, copper, and silver mining properties in Eureka and Humboldt Counties, Nevada — each documented in the USGS Mineral Resources Data System and the Mindat geological database.
Nevada has produced over 200 million ounces of gold since the Comstock Lode era of the 1850s, making it the top gold-producing state in the U.S. and one of the largest gold regions on Earth. The Carlin Trend alone, discovered in 1961, hosts some of the richest deposits ever found. With major producers like Newmont and Barrick operating massive open-pit mines just miles from our properties, the geology of north-central Nevada continues to attract global mining investment.
The Lynn Creek placer district appears in the 1965 USGS publication on Placer Gold Deposits of Nevada. The government report documents that placers in this district were discovered in 1907, with mining nearly continuous since that time, yielding hundreds of ounces of gold per year. The recovered gold is exceptionally fine, averaging 920–960 fineness, and company estimates placed reserves exceeding one million cubic yards of auriferous gravel.
Both Goldstone properties sit within Nevada’s most prolific gold-producing region. The Lynn Creek property lies near Barrick’s Goldstrike complex and Newmont’s operations along the Carlin Trend. The Adelaide Mine is located in the Gold Run Mining District of Humboldt County, an area with documented production of copper, gold, silver, and lead dating back to the 1860s. These are not speculative claims — they are patented properties with verifiable public records.

The Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology identifies Nevada as the nation’s leading gold producer, accounting for most United States gold production in recent annual reporting. The state’s modern gold endowment is concentrated in documented mineral trends rather than scattered anecdotes, which is why public MRDS, NBMG, and Mindat records matter to a buyer reviewing a property file.
The United States Geological Survey describes the Carlin area as containing a wide range of deposit types and notes that continued exploration after the original Carlin discoveries built one of the largest gold endowments on Earth. Separate USGS work across north-central Nevada documents the Battle Mountain–Eureka and Carlin gold trends as regional-scale mineral alignments.
The Goldstone portfolio reflects two documented Nevada deposit settings: Lynn Creek Placers, a placer gold occurrence in Eureka County, and Adelaide Mine, a copper-gold-silver-lead skarn occurrence in Humboldt County. Both property records can be checked against Mindat locality pages and USGS MRDS records before a buyer requests the full packet.
