Bravo Extends T5 Copper-Gold Mineralization Over ~200m of Strike

Highlights include 17.4m at 3.49% Cu, 0.95g/t Au, including 3.5m at 13.1% Cu, 3.87g/t Au; And 4.3m at 4.7% Cu, 0.97g/t Au

VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 4, 2024 /CNW/ - Bravo Mining Corp. (TSXV: BRVO) (OTCQX: BRVMF), ("Bravo" or the "Company") is pleased to report that it has received more high-grade assay results from five additional drill holes at the "T5" copper-gold target at its 100% owned Luanga Project. T5 lies to the east of the Luanga PGM+Au+Ni deposit located in World Class Carajás Brazil.

"Drilling has resumed at Target T5 following down hole EM in the initial discovery hole (DDH2405T002 11.48m at 14.3% Cu, 3.3g/t Au) with mineralization now covering approximately 200m of strike. Drill Hole DDH2405T012 (collared to the east of T5 with assays pending) has also intercepted typical Carajás IOCG style mineralization which is very encouraging," said Luis Azevedo, Chairman and CEO. "DDH2505T013 is one of a series of holes that will continue to test the strike length further east. Coupled with an improving outlook for copper and gold, this is a very exciting time as Bravo continues to grow and better understand the potential of the T5 discovery".

• Drill hole DDH2405T009 intercepted 17.4m at 3.49% Cu, 0.95g/t Au, including 3.5m at 13.1% Cu, 3.87g/t Au east of discovery hole DDH2405T002 (11.48m at 14.3% Cu, 3.3g/t Au including 2.9m at 22.9% Cu, 3.6g/t Au).
• In the most easterly section to date, DDH2405T012 (assays pending) intercepted multiple zones of mineralization consisting of disseminated/veinlet sulphides and semi-massive/brecciated copper sulphides.
• DDH2405T0013 will be collared 25m further east on strike of DDH2405T012.
• On the western side of T5, DDH2405T010 intercepted 4.3m at 4.7% Cu, 0.97g/t Au, increasing the current strike to ~200m.

T5 Target – Exploration Update

Assay results have been received from diamond drill holes DDH2405T006, 007, 008, 009 and 010 at the T5 target, with assays pending for DDH2405T011 and 012. T5 is located 1km east of the Luanga PGM Deposit. This drilling comprises a total of seven holes for 1,909 metres. The status of drilling at T5 is shown in Figure 2.  

Drill hole DDH2405T009 intercepted 17.4m at 3.49% Cu, 0.95g/t Au, including 3.5m at 13.1% Cu, 3;87g/t Au east of discovery hole DDH2405T002 (see press release May 28, 2023), which intercepted 11.48m at 14.3% Cu, 3.3g/t Au including 2.9m at 22.9% Cu, 3.6g/t Au). Further east, on the most easterly section tested to date, DDH2405T012 has intercepted multiple zones of mineralization consisting initially of disseminated and veinlet sulphides and finishing in semi-massive/brecciated copper sulphides (see Figure 3, 156.5m to 159.5m). Mineralization in DDH2405T012 is more typical of IOCG mineralization observed in other deposits around the Carajás and the assay results and style of mineralization is very encouraging for further exploration opportunities. DDH2405T0013 will be collared on a new section further east of DDH2405T012.

On the western side of T5, DDH2405T010 intercepted 4.3m at 4.7% Cu, 0.97g/t Au, extending the strike of mineralization. DDH2405T011, on the most westerly section, intercepted significant alteration but with little visible mineralization (assays pending).

Mineralization at T5 now covers ~200m of strike (Figure 2), is open to the east where DDH2405T013 will commence soon. 

DDH2405T006 and 007 are thought to be located too far north to intercept the emerging interpreted mineralized zone, while DDH2405T008 (Figure 4) was drilled to the south of T5. BHEM will also be completed on these holes to detect potential off-hole conductors. 

Drill Results Status Update

A total of 321 drill holes have been completed to date by Bravo, for 68,299 metres, including 8 metallurgical holes (not subject to routine assaying). Results have been reported for 272 Bravo drill holes to date. Assay results for 41 Bravo drill holes that have been completed are currently outstanding (excluding the metallurgical holes). Bravo has extended the current EM drilling program to 8,000m, to continue drill testing and follow up drilling of EM anomalies.

Schedule 2: Assay Methodologies and QAQC

Samples follow a chain of custody between collection, processing, and delivery to the SGS Geosol laboratory in Parauapebas, state of Pará, Brazil. The drill core is delivered to the core shack at Bravo's Luanga site facilities and processed by geologists who insert certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates into the sampling sequence. Drill core is half cut and placed in secured polyurethane bags, then in security-sealed sacks before being delivered directly from the Luanga site facilities to the Parauapebas SGS Geosol laboratory by Bravo staff. Additional information about the methodology can be found on the SGS Geosol website (SGS) in their analytical guides. Information regarding preparation and analysis of historic drill core is also presented in the table below, where the information is known.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control ("QAQC") is maintained internally at the lab through rigorous use of internal certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates. An additional QAQC program is administered by Bravo using certified reference materials, duplicate samples and blank samples that are blindly inserted into the sample batch. If a QAQC sample returns an unacceptable value an investigation into the results is triggered and when deemed necessary, the samples that were tested in the batch with the failed QAQC sample are re-tested.
