Giant Mining Submits Core For Assay From 1,963 Foot Hole Mhb-34 At Majuba Hill Copper Project- Advancing Critical Minerals In Nevada
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - May 30, 2025 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG | OTC: BFGFF | FWB: YW5) (CSE: ("Giant Mining" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that all core from drill hole MHB-34, completed to a total depth of 1,963 feet (598.3 metres)has been sampled and submitted to ALS Global Services ("ALS Labs") for analysis. This hole was part of the Company's Phase 1 Spring 2025 Drill Program (the "Core Program"), which comprised five diamond drill holes totaling 5,484.5 feet (1,671.68 metres) at the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper-Silver-Gold Project ("Majuba Hill"), located in Pershing County, Nevada . Figure 1. MHB-34 Core Being Processed for bagging and shipping to ALS for assays The Phase 1 program was designed to expand known zones of copper mineralization and advance the Majuba Hill project toward completion of a Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE). Hole MHB-32, the first of the five holes drilled, returned two significant copper-mineralized zones within a broader interval of 379.5 feet (115.7 metres) grading 0.33% Cu and 16.97 ppm Ag. Notably, the results included 169.5 feet of 0.41% Cu, with higher-grade intervals of 40 feet at 1.36% Cu and 10 feet at 4.36% Cu, indicating that mineralization extends deeper and farther north than previously known. See Press release May 22, 2025, here. David Greenway, CEO of Giant Mining, commented: "In my entire career, I've never seen drill core like this, it's truly extraordinary. When we began drilling MHB-34, we had high expectations, but what we encountered exceeded them all. In my entire career, I've never seen drill core like this. The presence of visible native copper beyond 1,850 feet, alongside cuprite and chalcopyrite, is a powerful indicator of the scale and strength of the mineralized system at Majuba Hill. This hole reinforces our belief that Majuba Hill is evolving into a world-class copper, silver, and gold discovery. Located in a top-tier mining jurisdiction with excellent infrastructure, this project is uniquely positioned to contribute to America's clean energy transition and critical minerals independence. We eagerly await the assay results from ALS Labs and look forward to advancing our 2025 exploration program." Click to see Figure 2: MHB-32 NQ Core closeup. Clasts of intrusive with chalcopyrite in tourmaline/chalcopyrite matrix breccia at 810 ft (246.89 m). About Hole MHB-34 Visible native copper observed beyond 1,850 feet signals scale and strength at Majuba Hill. Strong presence of native copper, cuprite, and chalcopyrite suggests proximity to a primary copper sulfide zone. Majuba Hill positioned as a homegrown U.S. critical minerals project with Tier 1 infrastructure advantages. As shown in the accompanying images (Figure 2-5), native copper, cuprite, and chalcopyrite was persistent in the deeper part of MHB-34.

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 89395 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.

Giant Mining Site Visit Highlights Ongoing Drilling Beyond 1,000 Feet at Majuba Hill Copper-Silver-Gold Project in Nevada
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - April 15, 2025 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG | OTC: BFGFF | FWB: YW5) ("Giant Mining" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that key members of Giant's executive team visited the ongoing drill program at Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper-silver-Gold Deposit ("Majuba Hill") located in Pershing County, Nevada. During the site visit, drilling surpassed 1,000 feet (304.8 meters) at Hole MHB-34 ("MHB-34"). MHB-34 is the third of five holes of the 2025 diamond core drilling program (the "Core Program"), currently underway. Figure SEQ Figure \* ARABIC 1: MHB-34: Drilling deeper hole towards Lower Adit to connect 2 of the >0.5% Cu domains modeled previously by RESPEC Engineering. As previously stated, the primary objective of the Core Program is to expand the known zones of copper mineralization at Majuba Hill and advance the project toward a new Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"). David Greenway, CEO of Giant Mining, commented: "The Company has now collectively drilled over 2,500 feet of development drilling in 2025 to adding to the drill database of over 80,000 feet of past drilling and over 100 historical holes of development and deposit understanding at Majuba Hill. This is another step toward advancing Majuba Hill toward our ultimate goal of a new NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate. The scale and potential of this system continue to impress and the entire team at Giant Mining has never had more conviction in advancing Majuba Hill toward its true potential." Big Sky Exploration, LLC ("Big Sky") of Eureka, Nevada, successfully completed drilling of Hole MHB-33 and mobilized the drill rig to a new pad where Hole MHB-34 has commenced drilling. MHB-33 was quick-logged and tagged for sampling on-site by Giant Mining geologists (Figure 2), as part of the Company's efforts to efficiently advance the 2025 Core Program at Majuba Hill. The core samples from MHB-32 and MHB-33 have been securely transported to Giant Mining's secured warehouse facility in Elko, Nevada. At this location, the cores are being sawn in half and sampled. Following this, the processed samples will be sent to ALS Group USA, Corp. ("ALS Labs") in Elko, Nevada. At ALS Labs, the samples will undergo analyses, including assays for copper, silver, gold, and other trace elements, to accurately assess the mineral content and support ongoing exploration efforts at Majuba Hill. As previously reported in the March 17, 2025 news release, the 2025 Core Program has been designed to follow up on high-grade copper mineralization intersected in breccias from the 2024 core holes MHB-30 ("MHB-30") and MHB-31 ("MHB-31") and extend the high-grade copper zones below the historic underground workings (Figure 3).The Company will provide regular updates as the drill program progresses, including assay results, geological observations, and any significant developments encountered during drilling. These updates will keep shareholders and stakeholders informed on the advancement of the Majuba Hill project and its potential to support a future resource estimate. Warrant Expiry The Company also wishes to advise shareholders that approximately 4,000,000 tradeable warrants ("CSE: are still outstanding and are expiring May 1st, 2025 (within the next three weeks). Investors who want to benefit from the warrants are encouraged to exercise their warrants prior to expiry. 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 Majuba Hill to the Giant Mining secure warehouse for core sawing and processing and then samples are delivered 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 5% of the submitted samples are drill duplicates and copper-gold-porphyry commercial standard reference material pulps. The remaining sample pulps are retrieved from ALS Minerals and retained by the Company for future metallurgical testing.
