Nevada Organic Announces Decision Issued to Authorize the Murdock Mountain Phosphate Exploration Project

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – September 17, 2024) – Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc. (CSE: NOP) (“NOP” or the “Company), a B.C. based company engaged in the exploration for organic sedimentary raw rock phosphate in Nevada, is pleased to announce that, NOP’s wholly owned subsidiary Nevagro, has been informed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) that they are authorizing the Murdock Mountain Phosphate Exploration Project.

“It is my decision to authorize the Murdock Mountain Phosphate Exploration Project, as described in the Proposed Action of the Environmental Assessment (EA) (DOI-BLM-NV-E030-2024-0010-EA). The EA analyzed the Proposed Action and found no significant impacts; a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) has been issued; therefore, preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required. This decision approves the Exploration Plan portion of the Prospecting Permit Application submitted to the BLM on March 12, 2012. The Prospecting Permit will be issued separately,” signed by the BLM Deputy State Director – Energy and Minerals Nevada State Office.

“Our Team is very excited by this latest decision to approve the Exploration Plan portion of the Prospecting Permit Application. The next step in the process will be a request from the BLM to submit a Reclamation Bond. In accordance with US Federal Regulation 43 CFR § 3504.50, a Reclamation Bond will be required once the official decision is made to approve the Prospecting Permit Application,” stated Robin Dow, Chief Executive Officer, Nevada Organic Phosphate.

Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc.

NOP is a junior exploration company with a sedimentary rock phosphate property (the “Murdock Property”) hosting a nearly flat lying sedimentary bed of known phosphate mineralization in NE Nevada.

The increasing interest in organic and sustainable agriculture practices has contributed to the demand for organic fertilizers, including those derived from rock phosphate. Organic rock phosphate is often marketed as a fertilizer that not only provides phosphorus but also contributes to overall soil health.

The Issuer aims to be one of the only certified organic rock phosphate producers with large scale potential in North America. The Murdock Property is situated adjacent to a main highway and the rail head to California.

30 Southern Nevada high school football programs go independent, leaving the NIAA playoff structure

LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — 30 southern Nevada high school football programs are going independent and choosing to step away from competing in the NIAA-sanctioned playoff structure.

“Definitely a good number of schools, their decision was based off of Bishop Gorman, we have to do all of these weird playoff configurations with these complicated formulas because a lot of teams don’t want to play them, but it’s not the only factor,” Liberty Football head coach Rich Muraco said.

Other factors include differences in zoning rules, transfer rules and finances.

“When you’re playing for a state championship, the NIAA’s job is to group teams you know as fairly as possible and play with similar types of circumstances and rules and there’s a perception out there that that’s not being done,” Muraco said.

Now, these schools are taking action into their own hands as the first step toward an even playing field.

“The goal long term is to get everybody back in a room and come up with a plan that’s fair for everyone,” Muraco said.

Nevada nonprofit pushes for youth mental health change in Latino communities

LAS VEGAS (FOX5) — There is a growing concern about youth mental health across Nevada, and a local nonprofit is pushing for change in one community.

In many Latino households, talking about mental health is not always the easiest conversation.

But as Hope Means Nevada says, breaking that silence is where the change begins.

Conversations about mental health may be growing, but in Latino households, they are still not happening. Hope Means Nevada is a nonprofit focused on preventing teen suicide and improving youth mental health across the state.

Nevada ranks last in youth mental health

Executive Director Janna Velasco said here in Nevada the stakes are high.

“I think all the data proves that our work is important and imperative and really urgent, because Mental Health America just reported us last, 51st,” Velasco said.

That ranking, measuring things like depression, hopelessness and suicide attempts, puts Nevada at the bottom nationwide.

Within that, some communities are being hit even harder.

“Latinas, in particular, female Hispanic youth, reports 10% higher rates of suicide attempts than their white peers,” Velasco said.

Stigma persists despite family support

Velasco said that the data point surprised her at first.

“I thought that those numbers would report less. I thought that the family support, and my husband is Colombian, and nothing is better than spending time with my married family. They’re just so loving and close and just pour so much love on the kids and hugs and celebration and music and great food, et cetera. I thought it would be the opposite. But what is present is stigma,” Velasco said.

Velasco said that is why it is important to have uncomfortable conversations until they get comfortable.

“Really, having a preventative conversation with your teen, just like you might run through a fire escape route, or how to beware of strangers. It’s a safety plan for teens that really needs to happen. And parents should just start the conversation,” Velasco said.

Velasco said a lot of crisis moments happen between midnight and 6 a.m. But help is always available. The 988 Lifeline is free, 24/7, and offered in multiple languages.

Hope Means Nevada will be hosting a mental health wellness walk in a few weeks.
