Bravo Mining (BRVO.V) reported Tuesday assays from eight drill holes in the Central sector and newly tested Crescent zone at the Luanga palladium-platinum-rhodium-gold-nickel deposit in Brazil.

Highlights include 70 meters at 1.9 grams per tonne platinum group metals and gold (PGM+Au) plus 0.28% nickel, including 20 m at 3.6 g/t PGM+Au plus 0.40% nickel, as well as 19 m at 3.2 g/t PGM+Au, and 8 m at 1.94% copper plus 0.6 g/t PGM+Au.

The results continue to demonstrate potential to expand and upgrade Luanga's mineral resource, Bravo said, adding it has completed 400 drill holes to date, with results reported for 355 drill holes to date. Assays are pending for 37 holes.

"Infill drilling is consistently intercepting thicknesses and grades often comparable to, or exceeding results from, earlier drilling. Drill sections in this news release also demonstrate that grades continue to be consistent, with excellent continuity from hole to hole and section to section," said Luis Azevedo, Chairman and CEO. "We are also encouraged with positive results from the new Crescent Zone, a regional target outside Luanga's three main PGM sectors. The Crescent Zone was delineated through reinterpretation and relogging triggered by the completion of the 2025 geophysical surveys. We've also intercepted another encouraging copper occurrence (DDH26LU307) at the eastern end of the Crescent Zone that warrants further investigation."

Shares in BRVO were up 1.4% in Canada at last look.
