Giant Mining Intersects Surface High Grade at Majuba with 74.0 feet of 2.6% Cu and 30.1 g/t Ag within 218.0 feet of 1.35% Cu and 73.4 g/t Ag
VANCOUVER, BC — September 24, 2024 — Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG | OTC: BFGFF | FWB: YW5) (“Giant Mining” or the “Company”) announces the company intersected high-grade copper-silver mineralization in hole MHB-30 (“MHB-30”) from surface down to a depth of 218.0 feet (66.4 meters) consisting of 74.0 feet (22.6 meters) of 2.6% Cu and 30.1 g/t Ag within 218.0 feet of 1.35% Cu and 73.4 g/t Ag at its Majuba Hill Copper-Silver Deposit located in Pershing County, Nevada.
Combining the copper and the silver results returns a copper equivalent of:
0 to 218.0 feet of 2.1% Copper Equivalent (“CuEq”) including 140.0 to 214.0 feet at 2.9% CuEq.
Majuba Hill is a copper-silver-molybdenum porphyry project that previously produced high-grade copper, silver and tin, along with gold and zinc from historic underground workings. The project is accessible year-round by a major highway with extensive infrastructure already in place and over 83,925 feet of exploration and development drilling to date. Giant Mining controls 15.1 square miles (39.2 sq km) or 9,678 acres (3,917 ha) at Majuba Hill.
Buster Hunsaker, Consulting Geologist to Giant Mining commented, “The recent technical reviews noted the consistent silver values associated with the copper have the potential to enhance the total value of the deposit. A 2017 study of the silver metallurgy indicated the potential for recovery using flotation. Combining the copper and the silver results in 0 to 66.4 m at 2.1% CuEq which includes 42.7 to 65.2 m at 2.9% CuEq.
The 2024 core and reverse circulation drilling program was designed to in-fill and drill new targets to expand the near surface, open-pit, 50 to 100 million tonnes, Exploration Target that has grades estimated from 0.15% Cu to 0.30% Cu (NI43-101 2023 Report is available at GiantMiningCorp.com). 2024 holes are planned to improve the copper grades and provide sufficient confidence in the results and make way for Giant’s NI 43-101 maiden mineral resource estimate (“MRE”). The 2024 holes target near-surface oxide and enrichment zones concentrated along magmatic-hydrothermal breccias that define two prominent corridors.
The Company is pleased to report that the MHB-30 assay results are significantly higher than those expected to occur within the high-grade domain (>0.50% copper) modeled in the NI43-101 in Figure 1.
"We are excited by the results of hole MHB-30, which significantly exceeded our expectations for high-grade copper-silver mineralization," said David Greenway, CEO of Giant Mining. "With guidance from our geologic team, including Richard Sillitoe, Leo Hathaway (Technical Advisor), and Larry Segerstrom (Director), we are continuing to uncover the incredible potential of Majuba Hill. We remain open both at depth and along strike, and despite over 83,925 feet of drilling and development work, we are only scratching the surface of just how big this opportunity could be for Giant stakeholders, the State of Nevada, and the USA. We eagerly await the results from MHB-31, drilled to a total depth of 1,086 feet."
Leo Hathaway, Technical Advisor commented, "The high-grade copper-silver results from hole MHB-30 are a strong validation of our exploration model at Majuba Hill. These results confirm the presence of significant mineralization near surface, with potential for further expansion both laterally and at depth. We are excited about the continued progress of the program and look forward to unlocking even more value as we drill deeper and expand our understanding of the deposit."
Copper Equivalent Calculation
Copper equivalent (CuEq) values were calculated 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 is trading at $4.475/lb Cu and $31.29/oz Ag (prices based on 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 or directly from Woods Process 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.

Giant Mining Corp. Receives Approval for Reclamation Cost Estimate from Nevada Department of Conservation & Natural Resources on the Flagship Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper Deposit, Nevada
VANCOUVER, BC — May 30, 2024 — Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG | OTC: BFGFF | FWB: YW5) (“Giant Mining” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the approval of its Reclamation Cost Estimate by the State of Nevada, Department of Conservation & Natural Resources, for the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper Deposit (“Majuba Hill”) a copper, silver, and gold project located in Pershing County, Nevada.
The completion of the Reclamation Permitting process with the Bureau of Mining Regulation and Reclamation (“BMRR”) provides Giant Mining approval of up to 25 acres disturbance. Payment of the $240,762.00 Reclamation Bond ensures that sufficient funds are available to complete reclamation activities on all disturbance on private land at the Majuba Hill Exploration Project.
With the reclamation bond in place, the Company anticipates a comprehensive drilling program that will incorporate the drill targeting results from the past three years of drilling. This includes approximately 3,900 meters (12,800 feet) of reverse circulation (RC) drilling in 16 drill holes and 488 meters (1,600 feet) of core drilling internal to the current exploration target. Two deep core holes are also being contemplated, each reaching a depth of up to 3,500 ft. (1,066m).
David Greenway, President, and CEO of Giant Mining Corp., stated, “The approval of our reclamation bond is a significant milestone for the Majuba Hill Exploration Project. It underscores our commitment to responsible mining practices and our dedication to environmental stewardship. We are excited to advance our exploration activities in one of Nevada’s most promising mining districts.”
The Company has drilled 19 RC holes totaling 4,601 meters (15,092 feet) and 10 core holes totaling 5,304 meters (17,405 feet) from 2020 to 2022. A total of 49 RC holes (8017.5 meters/ 26,604.1 feet) and 55 core holes (16,988.1 meters/ 55,735.2 feet) has been drilled at Majuba. 33 RC and 45 core holes for a total of 22,542.8 meters (73,967 feet) of drilling were NI43-101 compliant and could be used for the calculation of the Exploration Target in the 2023 NI43-101 report.
Exploration
As previously announced in a May 21, 2024 news release, an exploration corridor has been identified as a key focus area, integrating insights from both recent and historical drilling, geological mapping, geochemical analysis, and geophysical surveys. Drilling has revealed a substantial oxide zone that outcrops at the surface and reaches depths of up to 1,804 ft. (550 m).
Looking forward to this year and beyond, the Company is preparing for a pivotal exploration year in 2024. The company plans extensive drilling operations to thoroughly investigate the vertical and lateral extents of copper mineralization. These enhanced exploration efforts are poised to play a crucial role in delineating the full potential and guiding the future development of the Nevada Project.
Exploration Program 2024
Giant Mining Corp. is allocating funds from the recently concluded Private Placement towards advancing the Company’s exploration and development initiatives, in alignment with the recommendations provided in the June 2023 NI43-101 report. The Company has committed to drilling 16 reverse circulation (RC) holes and two shallow core holes, which are designed to infill and expand the mineral potential. The Company’s exploration efforts will be further enhanced by the drilling of two deep core holes, each reaching a depth of 3,500 ft. (1,066m). This significant investment in deep-core drilling is crucial for accurately determining the vertical extent of the mineralization, significantly enhancing the company’s resource evaluation efforts.

Additionally, Giant Mining Corp. is set to commence a sequential copper analysis program to improve the understanding of the ore’s characteristics and processing efficiencies at Majuba Hill. The sequential copper analysis program will provide the foundational metallurgical understanding of the copper deposit utilizing an extensive library of existing pulps and core from earlier drilling. This program will cover the breadth and depth of the deposit and optimize recovery methods and enhance the overall efficiency and environmental compliance of the mining process.
By advancing this metallurgical study, the Company seeks to deepen its understanding of the Majuba Hill orebody, leading to more informed decisions about the project’s development and ensuring that any future extraction process is both efficient and environmentally responsible. This initiative aligns with the Company’s commitment to leveraging all available data to support sustainable mining practices.

Their goal is to ensure a comprehensive and detailed plan that aligns with Giant Mining’s commitment to excellence and sustainable practices in resource development.
Copper Market Update
Copper prices have surged by 17.48% YTD in 2024, driven by fundamental factors and a tightening demand-supply environment. The persistent deficit in the copper concentrate market, exacerbated by ongoing mine disruptions, continues to exert upward pressure on prices. Additionally, the Federal Reserve’s rate-cutting cycle could unleash pent-up demand, further boosting copper’s value. Long-term, the energy transition is expected to become a significant tailwind for copper, sustaining its meteoric rise. These combined factors have propelled copper prices to new heights, reflecting a robust and dynamic market landscape. Below is a graph illustrating the year-to-date performance of copper. 1
