About The Majuba Hill Copper Project

The Nevada Project contains historic underground mines that produced 2.8 million pounds of copper. In the NI 43-101 Report: “Technical Report for the Majuba Hill Copper Project, Pershing County, Nevada, USA”, Jeffrey M. Bickel, C.P.G. described the copper mineralization and developed a 3D block model that measured 50 million tonnes to 100 million tonnes of copper mineralization ranging from 0.15% Cu to 0.30% Cu, with potential for a higher-grade zone of 10 million tonnes to 20 million tonnes grading between 0.40 % Cu and 0.80% Cu. This outlines an initial and significantly expandable potential of 660 million pounds of copper. Copper hit a 2-Year high of USD $4.66 per pound on April 29th, 2024. 1

Model (1)	Tonnage Range Tonnes (Bickel, 2023)	Grade Range Copper (%) (Bickel, 2023)	Copper Range (pounds) Calculated
Exploration Target - All	50,000,000 to 100,000,000	0.15% to 0.30%	165,000,000     to 660,000,000
Exploration Target - High Grade	10,000,000 to 20,000,000	0.40% to 0.80%	88,185,000 to 352,739,000
(1)The ranges of tonnage and grade of the exploration target are conceptual in nature and could change as the proposed exploration activities are completed.

 

Exploration

An exploration corridor is emerging as the primary focus zone based on recent and historic drilling, geochemistry, and geophysics. Core drilling intersected a thick oxide zone that outcrops at the surface and extends up to 550 meters (1804 feet) deep. Copper enrichment is shown by deeper zones of native copper intersecting beneath the overlying copper oxides.

The Company is gearing up for an important exploration year in 2024, with plans to significantly expand drilling efforts aimed at exploring the depth and breadth of copper mineralization, which could define the Nevada Project's potential and future development.

Exploration Program 2024

The Company is using funds from the Placement to advance our exploration and development program, as outlined in the recent recommendations of the NI43-101 report. The company has committed to drilling 16 reverse circulation (RC) holes and two shallow metallurgical core holes, aimed at evaluating the mineral potential and optimizing future extraction methods. Additionally, Giant Mining will initiate a metallurgical study to enhance our understanding of mineralization and processing efficiencies. Furthermore, our exploration depth will be extended with the drilling of two deep core holes, each reaching 3,500 feet. This strategic investment in deep-core drilling will help precisely assess the vertical extent of mineralization and contribute substantially to our resource evaluation efforts.

About Giant Mining Corp.

Giant Mining Corp. is engaged in the identification, review and acquisition of latter stage copper and copper/silver/gold assets. This is in direct response to the growing worldwide demand and lack of supply for precious metals fueled by the Green New Deal in the US and most other developed nations with similar programs aimed at addressing climate change. Such programs are heavily reliant on silver, gold and especially copper to produce Electric Vehicles and other renewable power sources, as well as building infrastructure to provide clean and affordable electricity.

The flagship project is the Majuba Hill copper, silver and gold District located 156 miles (251 km) outside Reno, Nevada, USA. Management has been mandated to focus on safe, mining friendly jurisdictions where government regulations are supportive of mining operations.
