## Minestarters Atlas summary

Auriginal Mining Corp. announced that Phase 1 drilling has significantly expanded the Roger Project's mineralized footprint, extending strike and depth. The company is working with PLR Resources Inc. to update the 2018 Mineral Resource Estimate by October 2026, potentially using lower cut-off grades to incorporate more material.

Reasoning: The announcement details a significant expansion of the known mineralized footprint and the identification of a new geological target \(VMS\), which strongly supports the upcoming resource update.

- Positive factor: Significant expansion of mineralized footprint \(700m SW, 400m NE\)

- Positive factor: Extension of mineralization at depth \(&gt;100m\)

- Positive factor: Identification of a new gold-rich VMS horizon overlying the porphyry

- Positive factor: Planned resource update with lower cut-off grades to capture more tonnage

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Phase 1 drilling extended the strike by 700m SW and 400m NE, and 100m at depth.

Evidence · text

> Phase 1 drilling also materially expanded the historical mineralized footprint, extending strike by approximately 700 metres to the southwest and 400 metres to the northeast, while also extending mineralization more than 100 metres at depth.

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress.

Why it applies: The company has engaged PLR Resources Inc. to update the 2018 Mineral Resource Estimate.

Evidence · text

> Auriginal has engaged PLR Resources Inc. to update the 2018 Mineral Resource Estimate \("MRE"\) for the Roger Project.

**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 names an Independent Consultant/Qualified Person \(André Liboiron\) who reviewed the technical information.

Evidence · text

> The technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by André Liboiron, géo.\(617\), an Independent Consultant to Auriginal Mining Corp. and a Qualified Person as defined in "NI 43-101".

## 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.
