Rise Gold Corp. is a mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing the historic Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine in Nevada County, California. The company’s core business revolves around the delineation and development of high-grade gold resources, leveraging both modern mining techniques and historical mine data. Rise Gold conducts exploration drilling, resource estimation, and feasibility studies aimed at reviving one of California’s most prolific underground gold mines, which originally produced over two million ounces of gold before its closure in 1956.
In addition to its flagship Idaho-Maryland project, Rise Gold evaluates regional targets within the prolific Mother Lode gold belt, seeking to expand resource potential through both near-mine exploration and district-scale reconnaissance programs. The company employs advanced geological modeling and geophysical surveys to identify new mineralized zones, with a focus on structurally controlled quartz vein systems known to host significant gold mineralization. Rise Gold also engages local contractors and specialist consultants to optimize drilling campaigns and environmental permitting.
Founded as a publicly traded entity in 2014, Rise Gold has assembled a management team with extensive experience in underground mine development, permitting, and project financing. William P. Newell, the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Director, has more than 25 years of experience in mining project management and capital markets. The board includes technical experts and industry veterans who have overseen successful permitting and construction activities in North America.
Rise Gold is headquartered in Reno, Nevada, and its operations are focused on California’s historic gold mining districts. The company maintains relationships with local stakeholders, regulatory agencies, and community groups to support responsible and sustainable development. As Rise Gold progresses through its feasibility and permitting milestones, it aims to demonstrate the economic viability of restarting underground production at the Idaho-Maryland Mine and advancing toward a construction decision.
