Executive Summary

  • Maxus Mining Inc. released results from its 2025 reconnaissance exploration program at the Hurley Project in British Columbia, conducted by Palliser Exploration.
  • The program confirmed high-grade antimony and gold mineralization at surface, supporting the district-scale exploration potential of the property within the Bralorne mining district.
  • Key findings include a peak antimony result of 9.33% Sb and significant gold intercepts up to 11.60 g/t Au, validating historical geochemical anomalies and guiding future exploration targets.

Key Details

  • Antimony Results:
    • Sample H038512 (quartz vein in talus): 9.33% Sb, associated with highly anomalous silver (153 g/t Ag) and elevated copper (349 ppm Cu).
    • Sample H038531 (outcrop; stibnite-mineralized quartz veins): 0.18% Sb.
  • Gold Results:
    • Sample H038576: 11.60 g/t Au.
    • Sample H038578: 2.20 g/t Au.
    • Sample H038579: 1.99 g/t Au.
  • Geological Context:
    • Mineralization is hosted in granodiorite and associated with mineralized quartz veins.
    • Gold samples are located proximal to historic gold-in-soil anomalies within the Hurley East claim block.
    • Antimony occurrences coincide with regional historic soil anomalies of antimony, zinc, and lead, supporting a broader polymetallic mineralizing system.
  • Methodology:
    • The program followed a desktop compilation of over 10 historic assessment reports into a central GIS database.
    • Samples were analyzed by Agat Laboratories in Calgary, Alta.
    • Analytical methods included four-acid digest with ICP-OES for metals, fire assay for gold, and gravimetric analysis for gold >10 g/t.
    • Quality assurance included certified reference materials or blanks inserted at a frequency of one in 10 samples.
  • Qualified Person:
    • Technical information reviewed and approved by Morgan Verge, PGeo, technical adviser and qualified person under National Instrument 43-101.

Notable Quotes

  • "These results from Hurley underscore the strength of Maxus's diversified exploration strategy in British Columbia. High-grade antimony and gold mineralization identified at surface, combined with compelling historical data sets, demonstrate the potential importance of Hurley within our antimony-focused portfolio and provide a strong technical foundation for follow-up exploration." — Scott Walters, Chief Executive Officer
