Bam Bam Adds Second Drill at Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper Project

Share this post:

Bam Bam Resources Corp. announced that a Second Drill Rig is being added at the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper Project in Pershing County Nevada. Falcon Drilling has been engaged to drill 914 m (3000 ft) of core. The second drill rig is being added to expand the footprint of the Porphyry Copper deposit at Majuba.

Reverse-circulation (“RC”) drilling with rig one began in the beginning of October and is making tremendous footage-production. The Company is very pleased with the results. The ongoing RC drilling program is focused on in-fill and expansion of the known oxide copper mineralization identified in previous drilling and mined from the historic underground Majuba Hill Mine.

Core drilling will be targeting the copper-gold target. Widespread soil geochemistry completed this summer has outlined a distinct copper-gold zone in a granodiorite intrusive. A mafic dike zone also cuts the widespread granodiorite intrusive. A small portion of the dike zone was mined by underground methods in the early 1900’s at the historic Last Chance Mine.

The mafic dike zone is strongly coincident with a distinct magnetic anomaly from the Drone Mag Survey and a high-chargeability corridor from the most recent Induced Polarization/Resistivity Survey.

David Greenway, President and CEO, commented:

“I am very pleased that we are adding a second rig at Majuba. Bam Bam’s drilling at Majuba has always been based on a systematic, staged exploration approach and it is exciting that the results are driving an expanded drill program.”

Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”) Measures, Chain of Custody

The Company has implemented a QA/QC program using best industry practices at the Majuba Hill Project. The samples are transported from the BBR secure warehouse or directly from the drill to the ALS Sample Prep Facility in Reno or Elko, Nevada. ALS then transports the prepared pulps to their analytical lab in Reno, Nevada or Vancouver, B.C. Soil and rock chip samples are transported by the company directly to Elko or Reno, Nevada.

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 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 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 sample rejects and remaining pulps will be retrieved from ALS.

RSU Grant

Further, the Company has granted an aggregate 6,300,000 restricted share units (the “RSUs”) to consultants and a director of the Company. The RSUs are valid for a one-year term and are governed by the Company’s RSU Plan, approved by the Company’s shareholders on December 2, 2019.
