Miata Metals Intersects 18 m at 2.58 g/t Gold Near Surface at Puma Target, Sela Creek
Miata Metals (OTCQB: MMETF) has announced significant drilling results from its Puma Target at the Sela Creek Gold Project. The company intersected 18 meters at 2.58 g/t gold near surface, including 7.5 meters at 5.64 g/t Au and 1.5 meters at 20.88 g/t Au.
The mineralization was discovered in saprolite, a weathered bedrock material favorable for low-cost processing. The Puma Target extends over 2.7 km of strike length within the 215 km² Sela Creek concession. The company is currently using two excavators to accelerate surface work during the dry season in Suriname, focusing on trenching, access, and drill pad preparation.
Miata Metals (OTCQB: MMETF) ha annunciato risultati di perforazione significativi dal suo bersaglio Puma nel progetto aurifero Sela Creek. La società ha intercettato 18 metri a 2,58 g/t oro vicino alla superficie, inclusi 7,5 metri a 5,64 g/t Au e 1,5 metri a 20,88 g/t Au.
La mineralizzazione è stata rilevata in saprolite, un materiale roccioso alterato favorevole a processi di lavorazione a basso costo. Il bersaglio Puma si estende per oltre 2,7 km di lunghezza di battuta all'interno della concessione Sela Creek di 215 km². L'azienda sta attualmente impiegando due escavatori per accelerare i lavori di superficie durante la stagione secca in Suriname, concentrandosi su scavi, accessi e preparazione delle piazzole di perforazione.

La mineralización se descubrió en saprolita, un material de roca meteorizada favorable para el procesamiento de bajo coste. El objetivo Puma se extiende por más de 2,7 km de longitud de lujo dentro de la concesión Sela Creek de 215 km². La compañía está empleando actualmente dos excavadoras para acelerar los trabajos superficiales durante la estación seca en Surinam, enfocándose en zanjas, accesos y preparación de plataformas de perforación.
Miata Metals (OTCQB: MMETF)가 Sela Creek 금광 프로젝트의 Puma 타깃에서 중요한 시추 결과를 발표했습니다. 회사는 지표 근처에서 18미터 구간에 평균 2.58 g/t 금을 관통했으며, 그중 7.5미터 구간에 5.64 g/t Au와 1.5미터 구간에 20.88 g/t Au가 포함되어 있습니다.
광화는 풍화된 암석 물질인 사프로라이트(saprolite)에서 확인되었으며, 이는 저비용 처리에 유리합니다. Puma 타깃은 215 km² 규모의 Sela Creek 권역 내에서 2.7 km 이상의 주향 연장을 보입니다. 회사는 현재 수리지 동안 수면 작업을 가속화하기 위해 두 대의 굴착기를 투입해 트렌치 작업, 접근로 및 시추대 준비에 주력하고 있습니다.

Miata Metals (OTCQB: MMETF) hat bedeutende Bohrergebnisse an seinem Puma-Ziel im Sela Creek Goldprojekt bekanntgegeben. Das Unternehmen hat nahe der Oberfläche 18 Meter mit 2,58 g/t Gold durchschnitten, darunter 7,5 Meter mit 5,64 g/t Au und 1,5 Meter mit 20,88 g/t Au.
Die Mineralisierung wurde in Saprolith entdeckt, einem verwitterten Gesteinsmaterial, das sich für kostengünstige Aufbereitungsverfahren eignet. Das Puma-Ziel erstreckt sich über mehr als 2,7 km Streichlänge innerhalb der 215 km² großen Sela Creek-Konzession. Das Unternehmen setzt derzeit zwei Bagger ein, um die Oberflächenarbeiten während der Trockenzeit in Suriname zu beschleunigen, mit Schwerpunkt auf Grabenarbeiten, Zufahrten und der Vorbereitung von Bohrplattformen.
- None.
- True width of mineralization remains unknown
- Only a small portion of the 2.7 km trend has been tested
- Early-stage exploration project with no defined resources yet
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Miata Metals Corp. (CSE: MMET) (FSE: 8NQ) (OTCQB: MMETF) (“Miata” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce significant, near-surface mineralization in its initial drilling at the Puma Target (“Puma”) on its Sela Creek Gold Project (“Sela Creek” or “the Project”). The Puma Target spans approximately 2.7 km of strike length.
Highlights
- Initial drilling at Puma yielded 18 m at 2.58 g/t Au from 5.6 m*, including
- 7.5 m at 5.64 g/t Au from 10.1 m, and
- 1.5 m at 20.88 g/t Au from 16.1 m.
- The entire mineralized intercept is hosted in saprolite, an oxidized and weathered bedrock material favourable for low-cost processing1.
- Drillhole located in the central Puma Target, where artisanal2 workings extend over 2.7 km of strike.
- This Puma intercept marks the strongest drill result to date at Sela Creek and underscores district-scale potential for wide zones of high-grade gold.
- Follow-up trenching and drilling is underway to define the extent and continuity of this newly discovered, mineralized zone.
“This early result at Puma is the strongest result we’ve seen to date at Sela Creek and is a clear signal that high-grade gold mineralization occurs over significant widths on the Project,” stated Jaap Verbaas, CEO of Miata Metals. “Intersecting 18 metres at 2.58 g/t gold near surface confirms Puma as a highly prospective target with the right geological setting for a large orogenic gold system. Just as important, this gives us a roadmap for follow-up drilling along the 2.7 km trend and across our broader pipeline of targets. We believe this is only the beginning of unlocking the district-scale opportunity at Sela Creek.”
The Company will follow up on this intercept with trenching and drilling to define the orientation and continuity of the mineralized zone. Results from Puma will also inform targeting across Miata’s broader portfolio of high-priority zones within the 215 km² Sela Creek concession, where multiple untested trends remain open for discovery. A full table of drill results to date can by found at the Company’s website via the following link.
Drilling, combined with surface exploration to date at Puma indicates a relatively flat-lying mineralized horizon, open along strike and at depth. Drilling to date has only tested a small portion of the 2.7 km trend with wide spacing, leaving considerable room for discovery.
With the onset of the dry season in Suriname, Miata is currently using two excavators to accelerate surface work, including trenching, access, and drill pad preparation. This will allow for more efficient advancement of Puma as well as other high-priority targets across the 215 km² concession.
QAQC
Drill core samples are sent to Filab in Paramaribo, an ISO certified laboratory for 50g aliquot fire assay for gold. Both the Company and Filab insert standards, duplicates and blanks at select intervals, all of which yielded acceptable values.
