VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Miata Metals Corp. (CSE: MMET) (FSE: 8NQ) (OTCQB:MMETF) has commenced drilling operations at the Puma Target within its Sela Creek Gold Project, the company announced on June 24, 2025 [1][2][3]. This development follows the recent completion of five drill holes at the Golden Hand Target, for which assay results are still pending.

The Puma Target, located in the southeast section of Sela Creek, is considered one of Miata's highest-priority areas due to its promising geological indicators. According to the company's data, the target area spans approximately 2.7 kilometers in strike length and 400 meters in width [1][3].

"The Puma Target showcases evidence of a potentially rich gold system," a company spokesperson stated. The area is characterized by intense hydrothermal alteration and repeating vein sets, features that are often associated with significant gold deposits [1][3].

Miata Metals plans to drill a minimum of 2,000 meters at the Puma Target as part of a larger 10,000-meter drilling program [1][3]. This marks the first time the Puma Target has been subjected to drilling exploration, adding a layer of anticipation to the project's potential outcomes.

The company's decision to prioritize the Puma Target is based on extensive soil sampling data and Miata's proprietary predictive vein model [1][3]. These methods have helped identify areas with high potential for gold mineralization.

As Miata Metals progresses with its exploration activities, the results from this drilling program could have significant implications for the company's future operations and the broader mining sector in British Columbia. The outcome of this exploration effort may also impact the local economy and potentially influence global gold markets.

Investors and industry observers will be closely monitoring the results of this drilling program, as positive findings could lead to increased interest in the region's mining potential and possibly attract further investment to the area.
