It's not every day that a press release features a seasoned mining executive declaring, "In my entire career, I've never seen drill core like this—it's truly extraordinary." But that's exactly what happened today, as a junior mining company released an update on its ongoing drill program. Unsurprisingly, the announcement sparked investor excitement, sending the company's shares sharply higher at last check.

As mentioned, shares of Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG) (OTC: BFGFF) are surging following news that drilling of Hole MHB-34 has surpassed 1,850 feet (563.88 meters). MHB-34 is the third of five planned holes in the company’s 2025 diamond core drilling program at the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper-Silver-Gold Deposit in Pershing County, Nevada.

The primary objective of the program is to expand known copper mineralization at Majuba Hill and move the project toward a new Mineral Resource Estimate.

“The strong presence of cuprite, native copper, and chalcopyrite in MHB-34 suggests we may be approaching the primary copper sulfide zone. We look forward to receiving the assays,” said Larry Segerstrom, member of Giant Mining’s Board of Directors.

CEO David Greenway added: “In my entire career, I’ve never seen drill core like this—it’s truly extraordinary. With visible native copper extending beyond 1,600 feet, we’ve exceeded our initial expectations. Majuba Hill is emerging as a world-class copper, silver, and gold discovery—strategically positioned to support America’s clean energy future and mineral independence. Nevada’s excellent infrastructure and mining-friendly environment further enhance the project’s value.”

The Majuba Hill Project is located in a mining-friendly jurisdiction and benefits from existing infrastructure, including well-maintained access roads, proximity to power supply, transportation routes (highway and rail), and potential sites for processing, waste management, and administration.

Shares of BFG are currently up 51.22% at $0.31 while U.S. listed shares (BFGFF) tack on a still impressive 35.45% on the news in late-morning trading.
