Giant Mining Corp. has enhanced its 2025 diamond core drilling program at the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper-Silver-Gold Deposit in Nevada by incorporating an AI-designed fifth drill hole targeting a promising southern resistivity anomaly.

The company's first hole, MHB-32, was successfully drilled to 889.5 feet, revealing encouraging visual results that prompted the addition of the new drill site. Developed in collaboration with Exploration Technologies (ExploreTech), the AI-driven approach represents an innovative method for identifying and evaluating potential mineral deposits.

The expanded drilling program aims to expand known copper mineralization zones and advance toward a new Mineral Resource Estimate. With copper prices near historic highs and increasing demand for domestic U.S. copper sources, the project holds significant strategic importance for meeting critical metal requirements in emerging green technologies.

ExploreTech's AI methodology combines surface geology, drilling results, and computational remodeling of geophysical datasets to optimize exploration targeting. By generating thousands of potential solutions and clustering the most promising models, the technology provides a sophisticated approach to identifying mineralization potential.

The Majuba Hill project, spanning 9,684 acres in Nevada, has already completed 83,930 feet of drilling, with an estimated replacement value of $10.4 million in development costs. The project's location in a top-ranked mining jurisdiction and its demonstrated infrastructure make it an attractive prospect for future mineral development.

Core samples from the new drilling will undergo rigorous analysis at ALS Labs in Elko, Nevada, with systematic testing for copper, silver, gold, and trace elements to support ongoing exploration efforts.
