Highlights include 39m at 2.34g/t PGM+Au, 34m at 2.24g/t PGM+Au, and 36m at 2.21g/t PGM+Au

Bravo Mining Corp. (TSX-V: BRVO) (OTCQX: BRVMF),  has received assay results from the final seven diamond drill holes in the Central Sector of its 100% owned Luanga palladium + platinum + rhodium + gold + nickel deposit, located in the Carajás Mineral Province, Pará State, Brazil.

“Results from infill and extensional drilling in the Central Sector at the Luanga PGM+Au+Ni deposit continue to demonstrate Luanga’s mineral resource upside potential. Drilling consistently intercepts substantial mineralized thicknesses and grades, often matching or exceeding results from earlier drill holes on the same section. Sections in this news release also demonstrate that grades frequently improve at depth, from hole to hole, across multiple intervals,” said Luis Azevedo, Chairman and CEO. “We are extremely pleased with the outcomes of our 2024 drilling and trenching programs, which were completed under budget and have set a positive outlook for the forthcoming MRE update.”

Highlights Include:

• The 2024 drill program is complete, and the results reported herein finalize the reporting of all assay data in readiness for the upcoming mineral resource estimate update.
• Infill and extensional drilling, at depth in the Central Sector, continue to demonstrate improved mineralized thicknesses and grades as compared to previous shallower drilling on the same section.
• Drilling has extended mineralization to depth in the Central Sector and demonstrates yet further potential for the addition of mineralization, potentially with increased grades and thicknesses, that are still considered to be within reach of a potential future open pit.
• The 2024 drill program increased the depth extent and thickness of the mineralized zones, and improved grades within the mineralized envelope.
• Exploration is progressing on EM targets and newly identified Cu-Au targets, with drilling scheduled to recommence at T5 in Q1’2025.

Luanga Drilling Update

Results from seven diamond drill holes have been received, all from the Central Sector of the Luanga PGM+Au+Ni deposit. All the drill holes reported herein are angled holes (-60 degrees), towards an azimuth of 320 – 330°. Together, this set of drill holes comprise a total of 1,471.4 metres of diamond drilling.

Section 1 (Figure 1) in the Central Sector shows a drill section where mineralization has been intersected at depth in drill hole DDH24LU286, and forms part of the recently completed 2024 drilling program. The 2024 drill program aimed to further define mineralization at greater depths than previous drilling as is the case in Section 1. Further drilling was aimed at infilling areas of wider spaced drill sections with the objective of upgrading the confidence levels of existing resources in the MRE. DDH24LU286 extends the mineralization approximately a further 75m to depth, now reaching approximately 175m from surface, with mineralized thicknesses and grades showing excellent consistency, equal or better to shallower drill holes. The mineralization remains open at depth with potential for further extension below 175 m depth.

Section 2 (Figure 2) shows extensional drill hole DDH24LU282 in the Central Sector, which also extends the depth of intersected mineralization a further 75m,  to approximately 250m from surface. Here, mineralized grades can be seen to consistently improve with depth, while the overall interpreted thickness of mineralization is also increasing with depth. As in Section 1 above, DDH24LU282 of the 2024 drill program has significantly extended the volume of mineralization at depth on this section. The potential remains to further extend mineralization at depth, potentially with increasing thickness and grades.

HeliTEM (Helicopter borne EM) and Copper-Gold Exploration Update

Exploration is progressing on both EM targets and new Cu-Au targets (Figure 3) within the Luanga licence.

Drilling is expected to recommence, starting at T5, in Q1.

Drill Results Status Update

A total of 345 drill holes have been completed by Bravo to date, for 73,675.65 metres, including 8 metallurgical holes (not subject to routine assaying). Results have been reported for 311 Bravo drill holes to date. Assay results for 26 holes are currently outstanding (excluding the metallurgical holes). These 26 holes relate to exploration outside of the Luanga PGM+Au+Ni resource area. A total of 45 trenches have been completed to date (for 9,065.73 metres), with all results reported.

About Bravo Mining Corp.

Bravo is a Canadian and Brazil-based mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing its PGM+Au+Ni Luanga Project, as well as our Cu-Au exploration opportunities in the world-class Carajás Mineral Province, Para State, Brazil.

Bravo is one of the most active explorers in Carajás. The team, comprising of local and international geologists, has a proven track record of PGM, nickel, and copper discoveries in the region. They have successfully taken a past IOCG greenfield project from discovery to development and production in the Carajás.

The Luanga Project is situated on mature freehold farming land and benefits from being located close to operating mines and a mining-experienced workforce, with excellent access and proximity to existing infrastructure, including road, rail, ports, and hydroelectric grid power. A fully funded +70,000m infill, step out and exploration drilling and trenching program was completed in 2024. Bravo’s current Environmental, Social and Governance activities includes planting more than 30,000 high-value trees in and around the project area, while hiring and contracting locally.

Technical Disclosure

Technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Simon Mottram, F.AusIMM (Fellow Australia Institute of Mining and Metallurgy), President of Bravo Mining Corp. who serves as the Company’s “qualified person” as defined in National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Schedule 1: Drill Hole Collar Details

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 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.
