Maxus Mining hires Geotech for large-scale survey

MAXM · Price

Executive Summary

  • Maxus Mining Inc. has engaged Geotech Ltd. to conduct a large-scale, multi-block airborne geophysical survey across its Alturas, Hurley, Lotto, and Quarry projects in British Columbia.
  • The survey aims to improve the understanding of shear-, sediment-, and/or intrusion-hosted mineral systems by mapping bedrock resistivity and magnetic response, with depth penetration of 300–500 metres.
  • Results are expected to refine priority exploration targets and support future drill planning, with data collection anticipated to commence in early 2026 and complete prior to spring 2026.

Key Details

  • Contractor: Geotech Ltd., a globally recognized airborne geophysical services provider with over 10 million line-kilometres of surveys completed to date.
  • Survey Scope: Approximately 1,417 line-kilometres flown over six survey blocks.
  • Technology: Utilization of Geotech’s patented Versatile time-domain electromagnetic (VTEM) system, a helicopter-borne TDEM and magnetic system designed for high sensitivity and resolution in complex terrain.
  • Technical Objectives: Mapping contrasts in bedrock resistivity and magnetic response to image subsurface geological features; effective depth penetration estimated at 300 metres to 500 metres.
  • Timeline: Anticipated commencement in early 2026, subject to weather conditions; expected completion prior to spring 2026.
  • Data Delivery: Maxus will receive daily data deliveries throughout the program.
  • Quality Assurance: Convolutions Geoscience, led by Kyle Patterson, PGeo, is providing QA/QC oversight to ensure data integrity and consistency.
  • Strategic Context: This engagement follows a previous disclosure on Dec. 16, 2025, regarding the engagement of Convolutions Geoscience for strategic geophysical targeting and interpretation.
  • Portfolio Context: Maxus is actively progressing a diversified portfolio of approximately 15,098 hectares of prospective terrain across British Columbia.

Notable Quotes

  • "This airborne geophysical program represents an important technical step in advancing our British Columbia project portfolio. High-quality geophysical data will allow our technical team to better constrain subsurface structural architecture, prioritize targets and support efficient planning for future exploration activities across multiple projects." — Scott Walters, Chief Executive Officer
