## Minestarters Atlas summary

Bitterroot Resources has commenced its 2021 winter drill program at the LM Nickel-Copper-PGM Project in Michigan, targeting approximately 2,400 metres of core drilling. The release also restates historical results from hole LM 20-01 to provide geological context for the current targets.

Reasoning: The announcement is primarily about the commencement of a new drilling program, with historical results provided as context rather than new assay data.

- Positive factor: drilling program resumption

- Positive factor: historical high metal tenor mineralization mentioned

Facts used in scoring: 3

## Classification and evidence

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: The release explicitly states the 4.8m interval is true thickness.

Evidence · text

> 4.8 metres \(true thickness\)

**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: A Qualified Person \(Glenn W. Scott, CPG\) is named as responsible for the technical content.

Evidence · text

> Mr. Glenn W. Scott, CPG, is the Qualified Person

#### Tags used in scoring

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: true\_width\_m is 4.8

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: qaqc\_disclosed is not 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

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty.

Why it applies: the fact restates a prior release

## 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.
