Core Insights - Miata Metals Corp. has announced final assays from its 2025 drill program, revealing high-grade gold intercepts at the Jons Trend zone and promising results from the Big Berg target [1][2]. Jons Trend - The assays from Jons Trend indicate an expansion of the known mineralization zone, with significant results including 57 m at 1.01 g/t gold and high-grade intervals such as 4.3 m at 12.49 g/t gold [3][5]. - The drilling program at Jons Trend has confirmed continuous gold mineralization across a previously untested corridor of 750 m by 250 m, extending to depths of 200 m [5][8]. - All but one hole in the Jons Trend drilling program yielded multiple mineralized intercepts, enhancing the size and grade of the mineralization [5][8]. Big Berg - Exploration drilling at the Big Berg target has produced results including 8.1 m at 2.21 g/t gold, with mineralization associated with a brittle-ductile fault [4][9]. - The Big Berg target is located approximately 500 meters southeast of Jons Trend and is expected to be a focus for further exploration in 2026 [4][9]. Future Plans - Miata plans to aggressively follow up on the discoveries in 2026 with a drill program targeting 25,000 m, which will include discovery drilling on multiple targets [2][4]. - The company aims to identify the full extent of the Jons Trend's mineralization in terms of strike, width, and depth throughout 2026 [3][4].
