## Minestarters Atlas summary

Altamira Gold reported high-grade gold drill results from the Cajueiro Central project in Brazil, including a 0.7m @ 19.0 g/t Au intercept. The results confirm mineralization extends beyond current resource boundaries and the company has commenced drilling at two new porphyry targets, Mombaque and Guillermo.

Reasoning: Successful resource extension drilling with a bonanza-grade intercept \(19.0 g/t Au\) and expansion into new porphyry targets.

- Positive factor: High-grade intercept of 19.0 g/t Au

- Positive factor: Mineralization confirmed outside existing resource boundaries

- Positive factor: Step-out drilling successful at Cajueiro Central

- Positive factor: Commencement of drilling at new porphyry targets

- Negative factor: Narrow widths on some high-grade intercepts

Facts used in scoring: 9

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: 0.7m @ 19.0 g/t gold is exceptionally high grade for the sector.

Evidence · text

> 0.7m @ 19.0g/t gold

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: CJO 114 was drilled outside the current resource and confirmed mineralization.

Evidence · text

> Hole CJO 114, drilled outside the current resource... confirming that mineralization extends beyond the existing resource boundaries.

**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: Release details laboratory \(SGS Geosol\), assay methods \(50g fire assay, ICP\), and QA/QC protocols \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Evidence · text

> For all drilling, half core is submitted to SGS Geosol... Quality control of drillhole assays follows normal industry procedures of inserting control samples randomly

## 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.
