Miata Metals Initiates a Major Diamond Drill Program
Miata Metals Corp. (CNSX: MMET.CN) (Frankfurt: 8NQ) is excited to announce the initiation of a 10,000-meter diamond core drilling program at its Sela Creek Gold Project. This project represents a significant step in the company's exploration strategy and commitment to discovering gold resources.
Currently, the drilling focuses on the Stranger target, which is among the main prospects located within the central mineralized corridor at Sela Creek. This corridor is known for its potential for rich gold deposits. The company has gathered promising data during its exploration activities, strengthening their confidence in the results aimed for this drilling phase.
Key Highlights of the Drill Program
The ongoing drilling at the Stranger target is specifically testing a zone characterized by shearing, intense veining, and silicification, which has shown encouraging outcomes in previous surface sampling efforts throughout 2024 and 2025. The following key points outline the current scope and future plans:
- Three drill holes are planned at the Stranger site, which will be followed by extensions at the Puma and Golden Hand targets.
- Mineralized grab samples obtained from the Stranger target suggest an approximately 30-meter-wide zone containing significant alteration, shearing, and veining.
Dr. Jaap Verbaas, the CEO of Miata, expressed the company’s excitement regarding the milestone achieved with the commencement of this drilling program. He mentioned, "Our testing of the Stranger target is a critical step as it has consistently yielded positive results in past sampling sessions. We are optimistic about continuity in mineralization at deeper levels. We anticipate the drilling will inspire further exploration and development activities, allowing us to optimize our drilling pipeline effectively. The partnership with our diligent local team and supportive community has been essential in making this endeavor possible. We eagerly await feedback on our targets from the drill-core analysis and the validation of our predictive vein model through this drilling phase."
Operational Updates from the Field
The drilling operations are spearheaded by a proficient crew from Major Drilling, who is currently focused on the Stranger target. Preparations for drilling at the Puma and Golden Hand sites are also well underway. Additionally, we are rapidly advancing the construction of a dedicated camp at Sela Creek, aiming for a capacity of 35 personnel to accommodate multiple drilling rigs as the program expands.
