Giant Mining Corp. announces the company is planning a four hole Core Drilling Program (“Core Program”) at its Majuba Hill Copper-Silver Deposit (“Majuba Hill” or “the Project”) in Pershing County, Nevada.
The Core Program is designed to follow up hole MHB-30 (“MHB-30”) which encountered high-grade copper-silver mineralization from 0 to 218.0 feet (66.4 meters) of 1.35% Cu and 73.4 g/t Ag including 74.0 feet (22.6 meters) of 2.6% Cu and 30.1 g/t Ag.
Combining the copper and the silver results returns a copper equivalent of:
0 to 218.0 feet (66.4 meters) of 2.1% Copper Equivalent (“CuEq”) including 140.0 to 214.0/ 74.0 feet (22.6 meters) at 2.9% CuEq.
“We are excited to announce this newest core drill program as a follow up to hole MHB-30, which significantly exceeded our expectations for high-grade copper-silver mineralization,” said David Greenway, CEO of Giant Mining. “The company is steadfast in its belief of the potential at Majuba Hill and that 2025 will be a breakout year for Copper, with industry insiders seeing the potential for $5.00+ copper on the horizon, an undeniable shortfall of copper supply and a new US Presidential administration that will focus on speeding up permitting timelines for critical, domestic mineral production.”
Drilling is planned to target the Southern Breccia Corridor with holes oriented to intersect the high-grade mineralized breccia. Drilling will focus on the deeper portions of the breccia and the extensions of the high-grade copper zones below the historic underground workings.
Copper equivalent (CuEq) values were calculated on September 24th, 2024, by combining the assay values for copper and silver assay results for each intercept using an interval-weighted calculation based on $4.475/lb Cu and $31.29/oz Ag. Copper on September 24th, 2024, was trading at $4.475/lb Cu and $31.29/oz Ag (prices from https://www.cnbc.com/quotes; Copper (Dec′24) @HG.1: CEC: Commodities Exchange Centre and Silver COMEX (Dec′24) @SI.1: CEC: Commodities Exchange Centre).

Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”) Measures, Chain of Custody
The Company utilizes a QA/QC program using best industry practices at the Majuba Hill Project. The samples are placed in cloth or plastic sample bags and are transported from the Giant Mining secure warehouse to the ALS Labs Sample Prep Facility in Elko, Nevada. ALS then transports the prepared pulps to their analytical lab in North Vancouver, B.C.
Drill core samples are sawn in half lengthwise and one half is placed in labeled cloth sample bags. All samples are analyzed for copper, gold, silver, and 33 other elements. Gold is determined by ALS Labs method Au-AA23 which is a fire assay with an AAS finish on a 30-gram split. Copper, silver, and the remaining 31 elements are determined by ALS Labs method ME-ICP61 which is a four-acid digestion and ICP-AES assay. Approximately 10% of the submitted samples are drill duplicates and copper-gold-porphyry commercial standard reference material pulps. The sample rejects and remaining pulps will be retrieved from ALS Labs.
