Maxus Mining Initiates Historical Desktop Compilation on Four Critical Minerals Projects in British Columbia, Canada

MAXM · Price

Executive Summary

  • Maxus Mining has launched a historical drill‑hole compilation program covering ~150 legacy holes across four critical‑minerals projects in British Columbia.
  • The digital 3D integration of collar locations, down‑hole surveys, lithologies and assay data is intended to accelerate target identification, improve geological models and support the company’s 2025‑2026 exploration plans.
  • The initiative is positioned as a low‑cost, risk‑mitigated way to enhance subsurface understanding ahead of upcoming field drilling and NI 43‑101 technical reporting.

Key Details

  • Program Scope: ~150 historical drillholes from four BC projects will be digitized into modern 3D workspaces.
  • Objectives:
  • Unlock untapped value in legacy data.
  • Refine geological interpretations and accelerate high‑value exploration decisions.
  • Provide a foundation for prioritized drilling, geophysical integration and early‑stage modelling for NI 43‑101 reporting.
  • Strategic Fit: Aligns with Maxus’s broader strategy to leverage data‑driven exploration techniques and maximize the return on prior exploration expenditures.
  • Projects Included (selected highlights):
  • Alturas Antimony – historic assay up to 69.98% Sb.
  • Hurley Antimony – 2024 drill intercepts of 19.2% Sb & 2.16 ppm Au over 0.5 m.
  • Quarry Antimony – historical polymetallic samples (e.g., 42.5% Pb, 3.8% Cu).
  • Lotto Tungsten – 1980 grab sample assayed 10.97% WO₃.
  • Penny Copper – historic rock sampling with copper values up to 2,388 ppm Cu.
  • Leadership Quote: “By digitizing and integrating these historical drillholes into our 3D workspaces, we’re creating a modern, data‑rich foundation that will drive our next phases of exploration and discovery…” – Scott Walters, CEO.
  • Qualified Person Review: Technical information reviewed and approved by Morgan Verge, P.Geo., Qualified Person under NI 43‑101.

Notable Quotes

“This compilation Program is about unlocking value that’s already in our hands,” – Scott Walters, Chief Executive Officer, Maxus Mining.
