Drill Permits Received For The Mexican Hat Gold Project

VANCOUVER – GMV Minerals Inc. announced that subject to posting and acceptance of the required reclamation bonding/financial guarantee, it has received the necessary drill permits from the Bureau of Land Management to proceed with its next phase of diamond drilling at its Mexican Hat gold project located in SE Arizona. The diamond drill program is designed to test the resource at different locations to confirm grade variability and further validate the resource to confirm and improve the Mineral Resource categories. A total of 35 diamond drill holes are being considered, testing all of the zones at 100 m +/- by 100 m +/- across the 1,200 m long deposit to 100 m below the depth of the modeled open pit. Geomechanical measurements will be collected to allow for pit optimization.
The Mexican Hat Project’s principal controlling structure has been drilled from surface, where it dips 59o to a depth of 250 m below surface where the dip appears to have flattened to 24o. Subsidiary structures appear as splays off of this principal structure extend up to 220 m into the hanging wall.
Ian Klassen, CEO, said, “We are very excited to get underway with the upcoming drill program in early 2026 Receiving the Mexican Hat Project drill authorization is an important milestone for shareholders. With strong historical results and a compelling plan to advance our Company on the heels of a promising PEA, GMV is positioned for a very meaningful drill campaign.”
