TORONTO, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Blue Moon Metals Inc. (“Blue Moon” or the “Company“) (TSXV: MOON) (NASDAQ: BMM) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a land package and its associated water rights (the “Property“), located near the Company’s Springer mine in Pershing County, Nevada, USA, from a private third-party vendor (the “Seller“) for consideration of US$3.5 million in cash and US$4.5 million in common shares of Blue Moon (the “Acquisition“).
Christian Kargl-Simard, CEO of Blue Moon states, “This acquisition more than doubles Springer’s existing water rights and ensures that Springer retains its flexibility to grow into the future as a hub-and-spoke processing complex. The land package can also act as a strategic logistics hub, with access to highway I-80 and adjoining the Union Pacific rail line.”
The Property
The Property consists of over 2,100 acres of land in Pershing County, Nevada, bounded by I-80 on one side and the Union Pacific railroad on the other side. The associated water permits hold over 1,500 afa of water rights in the Imlay basin, with total annual permitted consumptive use of over 1,300 afa and a maximum pumping rate of over 4,300 gpm. The Property also has a 60 KVA power line that is located on site.
Access to the Property from Springer is via Tungsten road and highway I-80, totaling approximately 14 miles. Given the proximity of the property, favourable terrain and access to both the highway and rail line, the Property has the ability to be developed into a future logistics hub for Springer.
Transaction Terms
Blue Moon is acquiring the Property free and clear of all material encumbrances for the following consideration:
- US$3.5 million in cash upon signing the definitive agreement, of which US$0.1 million is a non-refundable deposit; and
- the issuance by Blue Moon to the Seller of US$4.5 million common shares of Blue Moon upon closing, based on the 10-day VWAP of the shares prior to issuance.
The Seller shall be responsible for filing the documentation with NDWR for the transfer of the water rights to Blue Moon for use at Springer, the cost of which filing will be paid by Blue Moon.
Key conditions precedent to completion of the Acquisition are TSXV approval and the completion of the water rights transfer to Blue Moon. A purchase and sale agreement has been executed by the parties on September 2, 2026, and completion is expected to happen in early 2027. No finders’ fees are being paid on this Acquisition.
