VANCOUVER, November 5, 2024 – Bravo Mining Corp. (TSX.V: BRVO, OTCQX: BRVMF), (“Bravo” or the “Company”) received assay results from twenty-five diamond drill holes (“DDH”) from its 100% owned Luanga palladium + platinum + rhodium + gold + nickel deposit (“Luanga deposit” or “Luanga PGM+Au+Ni deposit”), located in the Carajás Mineral Province, state of Pará, Brazil.
“Today’s drilling results mark another step forward as Bravo progresses towards completing the 2024 PGM definition drilling program to support future MRE updates. These results continue to intercept high grades over thick intersections, including those in the Oxide and Low Sulphide zones that have high platinum to palladium ratios.”, said Luis Azevedo, Chairman and CEO. “The Luanga Project’s consistent delivery of robust results and advancements across various potential development tracks solidify its position as a leading candidate to become a major new Western supplier of these essential metals through market cycles and away from sources affected by geopolitical risks and deep operational challenges. The Project’s potential benefits from the substantial infrastructure of the Carajás District, including cost-effective hydro power as well as ready access to power lines, highways, rail, water, labour, and suppliers.”
Highlights Include:
- Infill and extensional drilling in the Central Sector continue to reveal improved mineralized grades and thicknesses as compared to previous 100m spaced sections.
- Much of the mineralization intersected in the new drilling lies within 150m of surface and remains open for further extension to depth.
- Drilling in the North Sector of the Luanga deposit continues to demonstrate high-grade supergene mineralization in the oxide zone (e.g. 21m at 9.34g/t PGM+Au in DDH24LU264) and wide zones of mineralization in the fresh rock (e.g. 116m at 1.59g/t PGM+Au in DDH24LU266).
- Drilling at T5 target continues to extend mineralization eastward. Testing of the Bore Hole Electromagnetic (“BHEM”) anomaly at T1 will commence soon, as well as drill testing of a new copper/gold target west of T5.

Luanga Drilling Update
Results from twenty-five diamond drill holes have been received, eight from the North Sector and seventeen 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 090° in the North Sector and 330° in the Central sector. Together, this set of drill holes comprise a total of 4,994.6 metres of diamond drilling.
Section 1 (Figure 1) in the Central Sector shows an infill section, with DDH24LU282 being the deepest drill hole on the section, exhibiting a wide zone of mineralization, open at depth, within 150m from surface, and consistently increasing in grade from DDH23LU230 to DDH24LU237 to DDH24LU282. These results continue to support the mineralization defined on Bravo’s earlier 100m spaced sections. This work continues to bode well for potential future project studies.
Figure 1: Central Sector (Section 1 on Figure 4). Mineralized Grades and thicknesses continue to increase with depth.
Section 2 (Figure 2) shows infill hole DDH24LU280, in the Central Sector, aimed at increasing classification confidence in the next MRE update. Drilling also shows mineralized grades and thicknesses that are similar to, or better than, drilling from earlier Bravo phases on either side of this drill hole (DDH23LU058 and DDH23LU136). Trenching (TRC24LU031A/B) on this section also demonstrates the more significant volume of near surface oxide mineralization (due to dispersion) compared to more discrete thicknesses intersected by drilling in the fresh rock below. These results will support future Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) updates.
Figure 2: Central Sector (Section 2 on Figure 4). Infill drilling continues to support previous drilling results by Bravo.
Section 3 (Figure 3) is an infill section in the Central Sector. Drilling (DDH24LU275, and DDH22LU059) also shows clear evidence of better mineralized grades and thicknesses compared to historic drilling (PPT-LUAN-FD0121) between the Bravo drill holes, again with mineralization defined to date less to ~150m from surface and still open at depth.

HeliTEM (Helicopter borne EM) and Copper/Gold Exploration Update
Exploration is progressing on both BHEM targets and HeliTEM targets. Drilling continues at T5, the previously reported massive sulphide Cu-Ni discovery (see news release dated May 28, 2024), expanding mineralization to the east. Drilling to follow up BHEM at T1 will commence soon, along with drill testing of a new copper target located west of T5.
Drill Results Status Update
A total of 338 drill holes have been completed by Bravo to date, for 72,006 metres, including 8 metallurgical holes (not subject to routine assaying). Results have been reported for 297 Bravo drill holes to date. Assay results for 33 Bravo drill holes that have been completed are currently outstanding (excluding the metallurgical holes). A total of 42 trenches have been completed to date (for 8,317 metres), with results for 37 trenches reported and results for 5 trenches pending.

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.
