Giant Mining Majuba Hill Corehole MHB-30 shipped
for Analysis
VANCOUVER, BC — August 26, 2024 — Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG | OTC:
BFGFF | FWB: YW5) (“Giant Mining” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce
that all the core from Hole MHB-30 (“MHB-30”) which is the first hole of the diamond
core drilling program (the “Core Program”) at the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper
Deposit ( “Majuba H ill”) in Pershing County, Nevada has been delivered to ALS
Global Services (“ALS Labs”) in Elko, Nevada, to begin the analytical process.
Recent comprehensive reviews by the Giant Team which included renowned geologist
Leo Hathaway (Member of the Advisory Board), n oted i mportant mineralization
controls during the surface traverses of the Majuba Hill drill sites and while examining
the underground workings. Distinct magmatic-hydrothermal breccias were observed
controlling high-grade copper in the >0.5% Cu domain from the 2023 Block Model
(See NI43-101 Report available at giantminingcorp.com).

The recent core drilling intersected the magmatic-hydrothermal breccia bodies in core
hole MHB-30 and MHB-31, as can be seen in Figures 1 and 2. Drill hole MHB-31 drilled
in the gap zone between whittle pits 13 and 43 as shown on Figure 3 and Figure 4.
The Team also reviewed the nearly 25,000 meters of drilling at the company ’s core
shed and offices in Elko, Nevada that makes up the basis for the Exploration Target
2
50,000,000 to 100,000,000 tonnes. (See NI43 -101 Report available at
giantminingcorp.com).

“We are pleased with the progress of our drilling program at Majuba Hill, particularly
with assays still pending and a team that is fully engaged to take the Majuba Hill
Deposit to the next level ," said David Greenway, CEO of Giant Mining. "We look
3
forward to receiving the lab results from ALS Global Services, which will Further our
understanding of the deposit and its potential to become a future domestic supply of
copper for North America."
Leo Hathaway, Advisor to Giant Mining, commented “It is encouraging to see these
two holes intersect breccias over wider intervals than predicted, and it is exciting to
await results from these mineralized bodies. As the geology model evolves Buster
and his team are able to target holes more and more effectively to find better grade
and continuity”.

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 plast ic 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
4
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.

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 jur isdictions where government regulations are
supportive of mining operations.
