Giant Mining Corp. announced the expansion of its baseline exploration program at the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper-Silver-Gold Project ("Majuba Hill"), located in Pershing County, Nevada. This decision follows encouraging high-grade copper results from the Company's 2024-2025 core drilling campaign.
Recent drilling has confirmed significant high-grade copper mineralization, with core holes MHB-30 and MHB-32 yielding particularly promising intercepts. These results, combined with detailed geological studies of porphyry-related magmatic hydrothermal breccias and ExploreTech's AI-driven geophysical modeling, have led the Company to accelerate and expand its exploration initiatives at Majuba Hill. Both holes intersected high-grade copper within porphyry-related, tourmaline-matrix breccia zones, reinforcing the potential for a robust mineralized system at depth and laterally across the project area.
AI-Driven IP/Resistivity and Hydrothermal-Magmatic Breccias. Giant Mining has compiled extensive surface geology and geophysical datasets at Majuba Hill, which have now been fully integrated into an AI-driven modeling system developed by ExploreTech. Building on the success of this approach, the Company is initiating Phase 2 evaluation, combining advanced machine-learning insights with a targeted, boots-on-the-ground breccia mapping and sampling program in the Northern Zone Breccia Corridor.
The Northern Zone hosts porphyry-related, magmatic-hydrothermal breccias that exhibit many of the same geological features encountered in the Company's 2024 and 2025 drill campaigns. Historical surface geochemical data from this area reveals extensive anomalies in copper, silver, molybdenum, and tin, further supporting its potential as a high-priority exploration target. High-Grade Copper Intersected in 2024-2025 Drilling.
During 2024 and 2025, seven core drill holes (MHB-30 through MHB-36) were completed, totaling 7,370.5 feet (2,246.53 meters) of drilling. With this addition, cumulative drilling at the Majuba Hill Project now stands at 89,395 feet (27,247.5 meters), significantly refining the geological model and enhancing the Company's understanding of the mineralization system. The primary objective of the 2024-2025 core drilling program was to conduct step-out drilling from known copper-bearing zones, expanding the mineralized footprint and advancing the project toward the completion of a maiden mineral resource estimate.
Key highlights include: Hole MHB-30. Core hole MHB-30, announced on September 24, 2024, intersected high-grade copper mineralization hosted within magmatic-hydrother mal, copper-bearing breccia zones. Assay results from this interval returned the following significant intercepts: 218.0 feet of 1.35% Cu and 73.4 g/t Ag from 0 to 218 feet (0-66.4 m) including.
74.0 feet (22.6 meters) at 2.6% Cu and 30.1 g/t Ag.
