## Minestarters Atlas summary

Altamira Gold has intersected high-grade gold mineralization at the new Morro Verde target in the Cajueiro District, Brazil. Drill hole MRV003 returned 8m @ 3.5 g/t gold, including a 1m intercept of 15.4 g/t gold, within an interpreted quartz porphyry intrusive. This discovery identifies a second porphyry-style gold system in the district, extending the known mineralized corridor.

Reasoning: The discovery of a new high-grade gold-bearing porphyry target \(Morro Verde\) significantly expands the district's potential and provides a high-grade intercept \(15.4 g/t Au\) that is highly material for an exploration-stage project.

- Positive factor: High-grade gold intercept in a new porphyry body

- Positive factor: Discovery of a second mineralized porphyry target in the district

- Positive factor: Intercept is one of the highest grade-width products in the district

- Negative factor: True width currently unknown

- Negative factor: Holes MRV001 and MRV002 were barren

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: 15.4 g/t gold intercept is exceptionally high for a porphyry-style deposit.

Evidence · text

> including 1m @ 15.4g/t gold

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The intercept is located 1.5km north of the Cajueiro Central resource, representing a new target area.

Evidence · text

> located 1.5km north of the Cajueiro Central mineral resource

**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 mentions the use of certified reference materials \(standards\), blanks, and field duplicates.

Evidence · text

> includes the insertion of blind certified reference materials \(standards\), blanks and field duplicate samples.

**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 explicitly states that the true width of the intersection is currently unknown.

Evidence · text

> The true width of the intersection is currently unknown.

#### Tags used in scoring

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: proximity is offered as the value premise: "Following the recent discovery of gold mineralization at Tavares Norte, we now have drill intercepts in two separate gol"

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. 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.
