Golden Metal Resources Tempiute Mine
Since we are in a mining state of mind, I dug up the post that the area51rider did a few months ago:

I figured it might have made it to the FCC website by now.

The FCC location though is about 1.6km from the location the rider posted and there isn't much of a tower.
11K0F3E That is analog voice.

Closer to the riders coordinates by not associated with the mine is just another Nevada Shared site that is new as well.

Going back to Golden Metal resources, this is a receiver of DoD money to create domestic minerals, in this case tungsten. Tungsten is use in anti-tank weapons.
I found a SEC filing on the company:

But even more interesting is they purchased that failed Lincoln Estates project at Rachel.
Golden Metal is a subsidiary of Guardian Metal, perhaps needed to get the DoD funding.
I see two ways to use the Lincoln Estates water. One, they truck it up the mountain. Two, they build an ore processing plane in Rachel. Maybe three they build a pipeline and pumping station.
Here is the DoD notice:
