DALLAS, Texas, October 19, 2026 – Clifton Mining Company (OTCBB: CFTN) remains in focus as gold trades above $4,100 per ounce, while silver, platinum and palladium attract renewed investor interest amid geopolitical uncertainty, inflation concerns and shifting monetary policy expectations. Although precious metals continue experiencing short-term volatility, elevated prices support interest in mining companies with established mineral holdings and potential future production opportunities.
Clifton controls more than 14,000 acres in Tooele County, Utah, including historically productive gold, silver and lead mining properties. The company’s mineral portfolio includes the Clifton Shear Zones and Cane Springs properties, offering potential exploration, joint-venture and future mining development opportunities as higher metals prices improve the attractiveness of mineral resources.
Clifton also maintains an ownership interest in Desert Hawk Gold Corp., which reported selling 427 ounces of gold and 935 ounces of silver from June through August 2026, with average reported prices of $4,276 per ounce for gold and $63.19 per ounce for silver. Desert Hawk estimated another 1,701 recoverable ounces remaining on its leach pad at the end of August, representing approximately $7.27 million in gross metal value at the reported average gold price, before recovery, processing and operating costs.
With gold maintaining historically elevated levels and silver benefiting from both investment and industrial demand, CFTN’s combination of mineral properties, precious-metals exposure and potential future mining operations positions the company as a speculative small-cap stock to watch should the longer-term bullish metals cycle continue. Actual benefits will depend on production economics, financing and successful project development.
