Giant Mining (CSE:BFG) has announced a 10,000 feet (3,048m) multi-phased drilling and exploration program at the 9,684 acre Majuba Hill Copper-Silver-Gold Project in Nevada.
The first phase of this program will include up to 5,000 feet (1,524m) of a core drill program, accompanied by underground mapping and sampling. Giant Mining will then engage in additional surface sampling for follow-up drill targeting.
Phase two of the program will comprise up to 5,000 feet (1,524m) of a core drill program.
The drilling and exploration program will be guided by over 100 previous drill holes across 89,000 feet of drilling and includes input from RESPEC Engineering.
The company’s recent review of 2024-2025 exploration results, drilling, surface geological mapping, and surface geochemical sampling identified numerous mineralised breccia bodies, as previously reported. Intercepts in a number of drill holes returned ‘high grade’ copper and silver as well as long intervals of anomalous gold.
CEO David Greenway notes that this new drilling and exploration program represents “an important next step” for the Majuba Hill project.
“Our focus is on systematically testing priority copper-silver targets informed by geological mapping, surface sampling, and the project’s extensive historical dataset,” Greenway says.
“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 mineralisation and support continued, disciplined exploration.
“With strong infrastructure, year-round access, and a phased approach to drilling,we believe Majuba Hill offers compelling potential as we work to unlock additional value for shareholders and contribute to America’s priority of securing a domestic, reliable supply of critical copper and silver.”
Giant Mining is focused on identifying, acquiring, and advancing late-stage copper and copper-silver-gold projects to meet the growing demand for critical minerals.
