Bam Bam Resources (BBR) announced that unsampled core has been identified from historic drill holes in the Majuba Hill District in Nevada.

Recent surface rock chip sampling led the BBR geologic team to re-examine the historic DeSoto core and identify the unsampled core intervals. A total of 198.5 m (651 ft) from 7 holes was sampled and submitted for analysis.

Recent surface rock chip samples from the DeSoto Area returned:

  • 2.49 per cent Copper (24,900 ppm) and 58.4 g/t Silver
  • 1.82 per cent Copper (18,200 ppm) and 87.1 g/t Silver
  • 0.36 per cent Copper (3560 ppm) and 25.3 g/t Silver

David Greenway, President and CEO, commented,

“The DeSoto area is a very exciting development for Majuba Hill. This zone has oxide and enrichment style copper mineralization that is like our Known Oxide Target Zone. With the close proximity to the Known Oxide Zone and our understanding of the near-surface mineralization, DeSoto has the potential to add more near-surface mineralization to what we have already identified. I look forward to getting the assays from the unsampled core zones.”Majuba Hill is a large contiguous land position controlling the emerging Majuba Hill Copper District, located Northeast of Reno, Nevada. The “Majuba Hill District” is comprised of extensive mineral and surface rights held by private ownership, patented mining claims, and Federal Lode Mining claims that are 100 per cent controlled by Bam Bam Resources Corp. The land package is approximately 15.1 square miles (39.2 square km)/9,678 acres (3,917ha).

Mining is a common occupation in the area with several small to world-class mines operating in the Winnemucca – Lovelock area over the past several decades. 

The excellent location of Bam Bam’s Majuba Hill District, with already existing mining friendly infrastructure, will significantly reduce costs for exploration programs and future mining activities.”

Bam Bam Resources (CSE: BBR) is engaged in the identification and acquisition of latter-stage copper and copper/silver/gold assets. 

The flagship project is the Majuba Hill copper, silver and gold District located 156 miles outside Reno, Nevada. Management has been mandated to focus on safe, mining-friendly jurisdictions where government regulations are supportive of mining operations.

Bam Bam Resources Corp. (BBR) opened trading at C$0.175 per share.
