Bam Bam Resources (BBR) is very pleased with recent core drilling samples from the ongoing drilling program at the Majuba Hill Copper Project in Nevada.

The first drill hole ever drilled into the Copper-Gold Target discovered extremely altered diorite beginning at 81 m (266 feet).

Numerous veins of quartz-pyrite/chalcopyrite, chlorite-pyrite/chalcopyrite, and calcite-pyrite/chalcopyrite are continuous throughout core hole MHB-20 below 199 m (654 feet) to the end of the hole at 305 m (1017 feet). These veins are crosscut by quartz-biotite veins with pyrite and chalcopyrite.

The new discovery is 1,700 meters (5,577 feet) east of the Majuba-known copper oxide area.

Bam Bam is currently carrying out a reverse circulation (“RC”) expansion and step-out drill program in the known copper-oxide area.

Core holes MHB-20 and MHB-22 are targeting the copper-gold target identified by soil geochemistry, geophysics, geologic mapping and compilation during the staged exploration work in 2020 and 2022.

The copper-gold target was initially identified from the soil geochemistry program completed around Majuba Hill. Follow-up mapping and rock chip sampling returned samples with gold values of 0.006 to 0.728 g/t Au and copper values ranging from 30.5 ppm to 4,630 ppm (0.463%) Cu. A very strong association between copper, gold, and arsenic was outlined by the soils.

David Greenway, President and CEO, commented,

“The board and I couldn’t be more excited with the preliminary results from our new discovery 2 kilometers from our initial drill program. I remain extremely optimistic that future drilling will show this as a possible extension to our already prospective copper asset.”

Bam Bam Resources is focused on the identification and acquisition of latter-stage copper and copper/silver/gold assets.

The company’s flagship Majuba Hill project is located in the copper, silver and gold district located 156 miles outside Reno, Nevada.

Bam Bam Resources Corp. (BBR) opened trading at C$0.185 per share.
