Key intercepts include 21m at 1.20 g/t gold \(including 5m at 3.32 g/t gold\) in ABR179 and 8m at 1.19 g/t gold \(including 5m at 1.73 g/t gold\) in ABR178, which extended mineralization 60m to the southeast. The results confirm the project's scale and the shallow nature of gold mineralization, with 80% of the 7km trend remaining untested. QA/QC procedures are disclosed, and true widths are estimated to range between 70% and 90% of drilled intersections. Reasoning: The drill results confirm and extend gold mineralization at the Aburna Gold Project, highlighting its shallow nature and significant untested potential. While some grades are strong, the overall program is exploration-focused, and the lack of precise true width disclosure introduces a minor uncertainty. - Positive factor: Drill results confirm the prospective scale and tenor of the Aburna Gold Project, extending known mineralization. - Positive factor: Shallow nature of gold mineralization \(90% above 120m\) suggests open-pit potential. - Positive factor: Significant exploration upside remains with 80% of the 7km gold trend untested. - Positive factor: Strong gold grades \(up to 4.01 g/t\) were intersected in several holes. - Positive factor: Comprehensive QA/QC procedures are disclosed, including accredited lab and QP sign-off. - Negative factor: True widths are estimated as a range \(70-90%\) rather than precisely stated for each intercept, leading to some uncertainty. - Negative factor: Some reported intercepts are of generally lower gold tenor, though still confirming mineralization. Facts used in scoring: 25 ## Classification and evidence **QA/QC Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\). Why it applies: The release includes a dedicated 'QUALITY ASSURANCE AND QUALITY CONTROL' section detailing the independent accredited laboratory, sample preparation, and insertion of certified reference material and blanks. Evidence · text > The results reported here for the Reverse Circulation \("RC"\) drilling were analysed by Intertek Minerals Ltd., an independent and accredited laboratory located in Tarkwa, Ghana. ... The Company inserted certified reference material from OREAS \( www.ore.com.au \) into the sample stream, while NABRO sample preparation facility inserted barren granodiorite material into the sample stream as a blank. **Compositing Transparent** Polarity: positive Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals. Why it applies: The document clearly states the nominal cut-off grades \(0.40 g/t Au and 0.20 g/t Au\) and maximum internal dilution \(3 metres and 2 metres\) used for determining reported intersections. Evidence · text > A nominal cut-off grade of 0.40 g/t Au has been used to determine the boundaries of these intersections with no more than 3 metres of internal dilution of the intercepts. \*A nominal cut-off grade of 0.20 g/t Au has been used to determine the boundaries of these intersections with no more than 2 metres of internal dilution of the intercept. **Apparent Width Only** Polarity: negative Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness. Why it applies: The document states that true widths are estimated to range between 70% and 90% of the drilled intersections, but does not provide specific true widths for individual intercepts. Evidence · text > Based upon current data and interpretation it is estimated true widths range between 70% and 90% of the drilled intersections. **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Drillhole ABR178 is explicitly stated to have extended the mineralized envelope some 60m to the southeast on its section line at the Central prospect. Evidence · text > While ABR178 with 8m @ 1.19 g/t including 5m @ 1.73 g/t gold has extended the mineralized envelope some 60m to the southeast on this section line at the Central prospect. **Exploration Drilling** Polarity: neutral Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: The drilling is explicitly part of an 'Ongoing 2025 Exploration Program' and includes holes designed to test extensions and new targets.

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.
