The program focuses on increasing drill density in the Central Zone and stepping out to parallel structures like West 1, with the goal of supporting a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate later this year. Reasoning: The announcement marks the start of a new drilling season aimed at resource definition, though it relies on historical high-grade intercepts to justify the program. - Positive factor: commencement of 2026 drilling programme - Positive factor: targeting maiden Mineral Resource Estimate in 2026 - Positive factor: metallurgical testing underway to support potential bulk sampling - Negative factor: drilling start delayed by one month due to weather and procurement Facts used in scoring: 3 ## Classification and evidence **Infill Drilling** Polarity: neutral Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. Why it applies: The program is described as increasing drill density to supplement the 2025 dataset and test continuity. Evidence · text > initially focused on the Central Zone... to supplement the 2025 drilling dataset and further test the continuity **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: The program includes stepping out along strike to test other structures like West 1 Zone. Evidence · text > Drilling is then expected to step out along strike and test other structures ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 3.

Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
