The company’s primary focus is the Homestake District of South Dakota where it controls the Maitland the Barrick Option Richmond Hill and other properties. Recent work includes step out drilling that extended the known strike length of iron formation hosted gold mineralization at the Maitland Gold Project and an updated S K 1300 initial assessment for the Richmond Hill Gold Project indicating measured and indicated resources of 307.86 million tonnes at 0.470 grams per tonne gold and 4.83 grams per tonne silver and inferred resources of 414.04 million tonnes at 0.381 grams per tonne gold and 3.91 grams per tonne silver.

Dakota Gold Corp. operates in a competitive junior exploration landscape where numerous companies seek similar gold and silver properties in North America. The firm competes for exploration capital drilling contracts and skilled personnel with peers that often have larger balance sheets. Its competitive position is strengthened by the depth of its land package in the Homestake District which provides a contiguous block of prospective ground. The management team’s long term involvement in the district gives it familiarity with local geology permitting processes and community relations. Additionally the company’s control of surface rights and unpatented claims reduces reliance on third party land access.

The company does not presently serve a customer base because it has not yet produced any marketable minerals.

Until production begins the company’s revenue will depend on external financing rather than customer sales.
