Maxus Mining Inc., a mineral exploration company trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol MAXM, has released promising highlights from its 2025 field reconnaissance program conducted at the Alturas West Property. This strategically located project is situated within the prolific Slocan Mining District of British Columbia, Canada, an area renowned for its rich mining history and infrastructure.
2025 Exploration Program Achievements
The company engaged Palliser Exploration Ltd. to execute a comprehensive field program during the autumn of 2025. This initiative followed an extensive desktop review of historic assessment reports, which were compiled into a centralized GIS database to identify favorable geological targets. The field work focused on evaluating these generated target areas across the property.
Notable Assay Results
The initial results from the 2025 sampling program have revealed strong polymetallic signatures, characterized by significant concentrations of multiple metals. Key rock sample assays include:
- Sample G018729: 430 grams per tonne silver, 0.43 grams per tonne gold, 1,410 parts per million antimony, 0.34% zinc, 0.35% copper, and 0.16% lead.
- Sample G018678: 87.7 grams per tonne silver, 0.15 grams per tonne gold, 219 parts per million antimony, 0.13% zinc, 0.06% copper, and 0.08% lead.
These findings highlight the property's enrichment in antimony alongside high-grade silver, with additional values for zinc, lead, and copper.
Strategic Advantages and Executive Commentary
The Alturas West Property benefits from its location in the established Slocan Mining District, which offers excellent access and proximity to historic mining infrastructure. This positioning facilitates efficient advancement of ongoing exploration activities.
Scott Walters, Chief Executive Officer of Maxus Mining, commented on the results, stating, "The 2025 field results at Alturas West continue to demonstrate the strength of the Project's polymetallic system, with particularly encouraging enrichment in antimony alongside high-grade silver."
He further elaborated, "The presence of antimony in association with elevated silver, copper, lead, and zinc supports our interpretation of a focused, structurally controlled mineralizing system. This reinforces the relevance of Alturas West within our growing antimony portfolio."
Walters added, "These results confirm that antimony mineralization at Alturas West is not isolated, but part of a broader multi-element system where silver represents an important value driver. As we integrate these findings with historic data and ongoing structural interpretation, we believe the Project offers clear upside potential and meaningful follow-up opportunities."
Future Exploration Outlook
The company plans to continue advancing its exploration strategy in the Slocan Mining District, building on these initial results. The integration of new data with historic information is expected to guide future drilling and sampling programs, aiming to further delineate the mineralized system and assess its economic potential.
Maxus Mining's focus on polymetallic deposits, particularly those containing antimony and silver, aligns with growing market demand for these metals in various industrial applications. The Alturas West Property represents a significant component of the company's exploration portfolio, with ongoing work poised to unlock additional value through systematic evaluation.
