London BTC Company Expands US Operations with Gold and Critical Minerals Focus

London BTC Company Limited has announced plans to expand its operations in the US, focusing on gold, silver, and critical minerals. The company believes it is operating at the intersection of three powerful themes: Bitcoin, precious metals, and America's drive to secure domestic supplies of critical minerals.

The second phase of the company's US gold strategy will commence in late August 2026 with the mobilization of technical personnel to Nevada. This phase will involve new exploration programs across four existing projects, including Black Star, Teep, Amonett-Frank, and Huntington-Whitman. Field activity is expected to run from September to late October 2026.

The company also plans to continue its staking-led model, which has delivered the existing portfolio. Staking of new mineral claims is expected to commence in September 2026, with initial projects for the 2026 staking program expected to be finalized from October to November 2026.
