How we checked this
Checked on September 26, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The source confirms the lease term, size, value, location, Meta as tenant, and the November 2027 rent start. It names the Meta subsidiary 'Anviran', not 'Anvilan' as the claim states.
Confirmed in the source:
- CleanSpark has a 20-year lease for 175 critical IT MWs at its Sandersville, Georgia, facility
- The Sandersville lease is worth $6.6 billion
- Meta is the tenant of the Sandersville lease through a wholly owned subsidiary
- Rent under the Sandersville lease is projected to commence in November 2027
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- The Meta subsidiary on the Sandersville lease is named 'Anvilan' (the source names it 'Anviran')
That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
