VANCOUVER, BC — TheNewswire - August 6, 2025 — Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG | OTC: BFGFF | FWB: YW5 | CSE: BFG.WT.A | CSE: BFG.WT.B) (“Giant Mining” or the “Company”) ) is pleased to announce the successful completion of a site visit with Exploration Technologies Inc. (“ExploreTech”), alongside the Company’s consultants and technical team.
The visit reaffirms Giant Mining’s commitment to advancing domestic copper production in alignment with the America First industrial strategy. Building on successful results from the Phase 1 2025 drill program—which confirmed hypogene copper mineralization—ExploreTech will deploy its proprietary AI-assisted geophysical modeling system to optimize exploration efforts. Giant Mining confirms the continued and expanded engagement of ExploreTech to aid with drill planning for the 2025 Phase 2 exploration program.
The goal of Phase 2 is clear: to define and delineate the mineralized system with the objective of developing a NI 43-101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”). The expanded program will target known breccias and deeper zones that will leverage ExploreTech’s advanced AI-driven geophysical modelling to facilitate deposit expansion and understanding.
“This is more than just a drill program — it’s a pivotal step in reshoring critical mineral production and reclaiming American leadership in the copper supply chain,” said David Greenway, CEO of Giant Mining Corp. “By integrating ExploreTech’s AI-driven geological intelligence, we’re accelerating discovery and reducing risk at a time when copper prices are surging. The opportunity to invest in U.S.-based copper assets has never been more urgent — or more strategic.”
Recent market reports show copper prices climbing over 40% year-to-date, driven by strong demand, tightening global supply, and U.S. tariff announcements. Copper peaked at US $5.72 per pound earlier this month, making American copper projects increasingly strategic (Source online July 17, 2025: InvestingNews).
This initiative is aligned with the Biden-Trump consensus on revitalizing domestic supply chains, especially in critical metals like copper. Giant Mining Corp. believes that reshoring copper production is essential to securing America’s energy transition, technology leadership, and national security.
Highlights:
-
ExploreTech reaffirmed as technical partner for 2025 Phase 2 Exploration
-
Reinforces Giant Mining’s commitment to American copper independence
-
Capitalizes on current macroeconomic tailwinds and price surges in copper markets
ExploreTech’s cutting-edge geological intelligence and data-driven insights will play a key role in accelerating timelines, reducing exploration risk, and delivering value to shareholders.
Results from the Company’s 2025 Phase 1 diamond drilling program (the “Core Program”) confirm strong breccia controls and copper mineralization, that correlates with previously identified high-grade copper intercepts in core holes MHB-30 and MHB-32.

Majuba Hill’s critically important characteristics are as follows:
|
Location: |
Nevada, USA — a globally top-ranked mining jurisdiction, ranked #1 in the Fraser Institute’s 2022 Annual Survey of Mining Companies. |
|
Project Size: |
9,684 Acres |
|
Infrastructure: |
The Majuba Hill property is 113 road km (70 miles) southwest of Winnemucca, Nevada, and 251 km (156 miles) northeast of Reno. Access is by well-maintained county roads from the Imlay; Nevada exit on U.S. Interstate 80 and traveling westward 23 miles. People, Roads, Power and Water are the basic elements when considering infrastructure and Majuba Hill already has a solid infrastructure foundation for building a large facility which will provide significant savings compared to more remote projects |
|
History: |
Historical Producer |
|
Drilling: |
Approximately 89,395 feet of drilling to date. Rough replacement value of drilling USD $12.1 Million using current costs. |
|
Mineralization: |
The project shows indications of a potentially large Cu – Ag +/- Au mineralized body with many features in common with both large porphyry copper, silver, and gold projects. |
|
Expandability: |
The IP survey, deep drilling, and step-out drilling indicate significant expansion potential, with mineralization open in all directions. |
|
Fully Financed: |
Secured funding for next phase of drilling at Majuba Hill |
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 sample bags and are transported from the Giant Mining secure warehouse to the ALS Labs Sample Prep Facility in Elko, Nevada. ALS Labs then securely 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 5% of the submitted samples are drill duplicates and copper-gold-porphyry commercial standard reference material pulps. The remaining pulps will be retrieved from ALS Labs.

About Giant Mining Corp.
Giant Mining is focused on identifying, acquiring, and advancing late-stage copper and copper/silver/gold projects to meet the growing global demand for critical metals. This demand is driven by initiatives like the Green New Deal in the United States and similar climate-focused programs worldwide, which require substantial amounts of copper, silver, and gold for electric vehicles, renewable energy infrastructure, and the modernization of clean and affordable energy systems.
The Company’s flagship asset is the Majuba Hill Copper, Silver, and Gold District, located 156 miles (251 km) from Reno, Nevada. Majuba Hill is situated in a mining-friendly jurisdiction with supportive regulations and has the potential to become one of the next major copper deposits, critical for meeting the increasing need for this red metal.
