Giant Mining plans drill program at Majuba Hill

BFG · Price

Executive Summary

  • Giant Mining Corp. announced plans for a multi-phase drilling and exploration program totaling up to 10,000 feet at its flagship Majuba Hill copper-silver-gold project in Nevada.
  • Phase 1 will focus on up to 5,000 feet of core drilling targeting three specific tourmaline breccia zones (Southern, Ball Park, and Northern), guided by extensive historical data and 3D geological modeling.
  • The program aims to systematically test priority targets, extend known high-grade intercepts, and refine the geological understanding of breccia pipe controls to unlock additional project value.

Key Details

  • Program Scope: Up to 10,000 feet (3,048 m) total, divided into two phases of up to 5,000 feet each.
  • Phase 1 Drilling: Up to 5,000 feet of core drilling targeting three breccia zones: Southern, Ball Park, and Northern.
  • Southern Breccia Zone: Two drill fences planned to extend high-grade intercepts from historic holes MHB-30 and MHB-32 (high-grade Cu/Ag, anomalous Au) and test pipe margins toward the Majuba Mountain peak.
  • Ball Park Breccia Zone: One drill fence planned; historic hole MF-02 intersected 120 ft at 0.51% Cu and 21.7 g/t Ag (260-380 ft); adjacent hole MM-17 intersected 94 ft of tourmaline breccia.
  • Northern Breccia Zone: Stepout holes planned to test prominent outcropping tourmaline breccia and anomalous Cu, Mo, and Ag in historic soil geochemical anomalies.
  • Additional Exploration: Underground mapping/sampling in Southern zone; surface mapping for Ball Park and Northern zones; surface sampling/reconnaissance mapping for DeSoto Cu-Au targets (potential Phase 2).
  • Geological Targeting: Focus on hydrothermal-magmatic tourmaline matrix breccias and breccia pipes characterized by high-grade shingle clast breccias, multielement associations (Cu, Ag, Au, Mo, As, Bi), downward flaring geometry, and long vertical extent.
  • Data Foundation: Program guided by 100+ historical drill holes (>89,000 ft), 2024-2025 exploration results, 3D grade/geologic modeling, and input from Respec Engineering.
  • Marketing Agreement: Extension of advertising/investor awareness services with Gold Standard Media LLC through Aug. 7, 2026, for up to $450,000 USD.
  • Qualified Person: E.L. (Buster) Hunsaker III, CPG 8137, independent consulting geologist.

Notable Quotes

  • David Greenway, President and CEO: "This planned multiphase drill and exploration program represents an important next step in advancing Majuba Hill. Our focus is on systematically testing priority copper-silver targets informed by geological mapping, surface sampling and the project's extensive historical data set. Majuba Hill is a large, well-located system in a proven Nevada mining jurisdiction, and this program is designed to refine our understanding of the controls on mineralization and support continued, disciplined exploration."
