Giant Mining Intersects ExploreTech-Predicted Mineralization, Indicating Potential Extension or New Discovery at Majuba Hill Copper-Silver-Gold Project, Nevada

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - May 12, 2025 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG | OTC: BFGFF | FWB: YW5) (CSE: ("Giant Mining" or the "Company") is pleased to provide the following update on Hole MHB-36 ("MHB-36"). MHB-36 is the fifth and final hole of the 2025 diamond core drilling program (the "Core Program"), at the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper-Silver-Gold Deposit ("Majuba Hill") in Pershing County, Nevada. The hole was completed to 1100 feet (335.3 m). The Company further announces it is fully funded for a follow-on drill program at Majuba Hill. Notably, Hole MHB-36 was strategically designed using Exploration Technologies, Inc. ("ExploreTech") and its proprietary probabilistic AI-driven geophysical modeling, significantly enhancing the Company's targeting capabilities for this phase of the program. ExploreTech's software automatically optimizes drill targeting - enabling companies to make smarter, faster, and more cost-effective drilling decisions. Figure 1: 3D Model of Majuba Hill, showing the five drill collars and summarized results for MHB-36. Right: Downhole plot of drilling results and ExploreTech prediction, showing predicted probability of sulfide mineralization and the true intersection (dashed grey). MHB-36 intersected visual disseminated and vein-hosted chalcopyrite mineralization within the targeted breccia zone, beginning at a downhole depth of 650 ft (198 m). Mineralization was observed intermittently continuing beyond 905 ft (274.32 m). Figure 2: MHB-36/935 feet (285 m). Intrusive with disseminated chalcopyrite. Figure 3: MHB-36/ 795 feet (242.3 m). Hornfelsed Auld Lang Syne Metasediments with Chalcopyrite in core box and close-up view. As stated in the May 9, 2025 news release, the fifth drill hole originally targeted a depth of 1,000 ft (305 m), inclined at 70 with an azimuth of 220. The hole was designed by ExploreTech using its proprietary AI-assisted geophysical modeling system to target a high-potential resistivity anomaly identified in the southern sector of the project area. Upon completion of these five drill holes, the Company's cumulative exploration and development drilling will exceed 88,000 ft (26,822 m), providing a significantly enhanced geological and geophysical dataset to refine the deposit model and guide subsequent resource estimation. The intersection of the targeted mineralization, as predicted by ExploreTech's AI-assisted geophysical modeling, provides a critical foundation for optimizing the design of the Company's subsequent drill programs planned for 2025, 2026, and beyond. Figure 4: Location for AI-Assisted Drill Hole Targeting for MHB-36 Designed by ExploreTechDavid Greenway, CEO of Giant Mining, commented: "The future is now. ExploreTech's cutting-edge AI technology, combined with the expertise of our technical team at Giant Mining, is transforming how we explore and unlock the full potential of Majuba Hill. The AI models predicted mineralization starting between 600 and 700 ft, and our team intersected the target zone within just 50 ft of those projections - a remarkable validation of this technology. Artificial intelligence is reshaping the future of mineral exploration and deposit development, not only in the U.S. but worldwide. We're proud to be at the forefront of this transformation, investing in innovation today that will drive success at Majuba Hill through 2026 and well beyond." 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"). Tyler Hall, Co-Founder and President of ExploreTech, stated: "We are thrilled to see these drilling results; the nature of this new sulfide zone could link the breccias above with large porphyry style mineralization below. This step-out drillhole expands the potential at Majuba. Furthermore, with these results, ExploreTech's drilling recommendations have correctly intersected the source of geophysical anomalies 7 out of 7 times, and this marks the first time we are sharing real-world results with the broader public. We've repeatedly seen our Inverter and Driller tools, built on the ExploreTech Engine, improve interpretation timelines and drilling accuracy on multiple deposit styles, with multiple geophysical techniques. This collaboration with the Giant Mining team has not only delivered remarkable accuracy in targeting mineralization but is also setting the stage for continuous optimization as new drilling data is incorporated. We're proud to support Giant Mining as they advance Majuba Hill into 2026 and beyond, and we look forward to the discoveries that lie ahead." Figure 5: Majuba Hill 2025 Drill Hole Locations About Exploration Technologies Inc. ExploreTech's AI approach uses Inverter and Driller; two APIs built on top of The ExploreTech Engine cloud computing orchestration system. Inverter is specifically designed to combine surface geology and drilling results with computationally intensive modeling of existing geophysical datasets to optimize targeting of covered targets. Driller then generates drillhole trajectories designed to cut those clusters most effectively. ExploreTech first combines the geological concept with AI geophysical simulation to identify and locate where the source of a geophysical anomaly actually lies. This is done by testing thousands of possible explanations (models) for anomalies measured at the surface and selecting only those that closely match the real-world geophysics. The selected models of the combined geology and geophysics cluster around the most likely location of the anomaly. The program then evaluates the clusters in three dimensions to determine the optimal drilling trajectory to pierce as many of the target anomalies as possible. The entire process can be rerun as drill results for specific targets, or additional geophysical surveying, adds new information allowing improved vectoring to the best mineralized parts of a given ore system. This use of AI to reveal and reinforce target anomalies in existing geophysical datasets is a significant new exploration tool and has already been applied in several cases, some are viewable at 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.

Giant Mining Corp. Announces Drilling Underway at Majuba Hill Copper-Silver-Gold Deposit in Nevada, USA

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - March 25, 2025 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG | OTC: BFGFF | FWB: YW5) ("Giant Mining" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that core drilling is underway at its flagship Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper Project ("Majuba Hill") in Pershing County, Nevada. The first drill hole, MHB-32, has commenced with the primary objective of expanding known zones of copper mineralization and advancing toward a new Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"). 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. David Greenway, CEO of Giant Mining, commented: "We are excited to begin drilling at Majuba Hill as we advance the project toward an updated resource estimate. The scale and potential of this system continue to impress, and this phase of drilling is critical in unlocking further value for our shareholders. It's also worth noting that copper is currently trading at approximately $5.12 per pound, significantly higher than during our last drill program when prices were under $4.00. This increase enhances the in-situ value of our mineralized rock year over year and reinforces the importance of advancing exploration at Majuba Hill at this pivotal time." The planned drill program includes up to 4 holes totaling 4,400 feet (1,340 meters) within the current exploration target area at Majuba Hill. A minimum of 2,600 feet (792 meters) will be drilled under the existing contract, with no maximum limit, allowing for flexibility based on results. Each hole is initially planned to a depth of 1,100 feet (335 meters), with the potential to extend to 1,600 feet (487 meters) if mineralization continues at depth. As previously reported in the March 17, 2025 News release, the drill hole targets were developed through a collaborative effort between Giant Mining and Exploration Technologies ("ExploreTech"). ExploreTech was engaged to apply its proprietary Engine AI artificial intelligence and cloud computing platform to analyze the planned core drilling program. The platform focused on identifying breccia zones and large low-resistivity anomalies. This collaboration leveraged Giant's extensive geophysical and drilling database to generate high-priority targets with greater precision. E.L. "Buster" Hunsaker, Senior Consulting Geologist, added: "We're drilling MHB-32 into the heart of the porphyry system. Based on previous data and alteration patternsparticularly the breccias observed in 2024 core holes MHB-30 and MHB-31we believe this hole will further define the mineralized zone and potentially confirm deeper extensions of the copper system at Majuba Hill." Figure 1: Drill Team and Equipment on Site for 2025 Drill Program 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. Click Here to see Figure 2: Majuba Hill 2025 Proposed Drill Hole Locations Majuba Hill's critically important characteristics are as follows: Location: Nevada The #1 mining jurisdiction on the planet according to the Fraser Institute 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: 83,930 feet of drilling to date. Rough replacement value of drilling USD $10.4 Million in development 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.
