Reverse Circulation Drilling Progress At Majuba Hill Project


VANCOUVER - Bam Bam Resources Corp. reported progress for the 2020 Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program at the flagship Majuba Hill Nevada Property in Pershing County, Nevada. Up to five holes in 2,500 feet (762 m) was planned for the RC drilling. Bam Bam expects to complete over 3,000 feet (914 m) in four holes because of the high productivity from Delong Drilling.

The RC holes are testing the Majuba Extension Ridge. The road built to access the drill sites discovered new copper oxide showings that were previously unknown, including malachite and chalcocite (BBR News July 2020). Historic drill holes were drilled from sites that are 50 to 800 feet below the newly unearthed copper oxide zones and 500 to 800 feet below the crest of Majuba Extension Ridge.

The historic core holes had multiple intervals of oxide and sulfide copper including: MG1703: 66.9 feet (20.4 m) @ 0.71% Cu & 28.9 ppm Ag/337.7 - 404.6 feet; MM-21: 220 feet (67.1 m) @ 0.27 % Cu & 14.3 ppm Ag/795 - 1015 feet; & MMX-24: 370 feet (112.8 m) @ 0.45% Cu & 12.73 ppm Ag/730 - 1100 feet.

The RC drilling will test above these holes down to the historic intercepts. This thick untested zone along the Ridgetop has the potential to greatly increase the oxide copper zone found in the upper part of the Majuba Porphyry Copper, silver, and gold mineralization.
