## Minestarters Atlas summary

Blue Jay Gold Corp reported maiden 2026 drill results from the Steller Gold Project in the Yukon, highlighted by a 14.0 m intercept of 6.15 g/t Au and 124 g/t Ag at Skukum Creek. The results confirm a ~32 m down-plunge extension of mineralization, demonstrating structural continuity and high-grade potential.

Reasoning: The maiden 2026 drill program successfully confirmed a high-grade down-plunge extension of the Rainbow Zone, matching the grade and width of previous historical intercepts.

- Positive factor: Step-Out Extension

- Positive factor: High-grade intercept

- Positive factor: Continuity demonstrated

- Negative factor: Deviated hole

Facts used in scoring: 11

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: SC26-003 extends mineralization &gt;30 m down-plunge of SC21-027.

Evidence · text

> represents an approximate 32 m down-plunge extension

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: MS-26-001 returned 57.4 g/t Au, well above the underground epithermal threshold.

Evidence · table

> 57.40

Context: 0.50

**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 blanks, duplicates, and certified reference materials used at ALS.

Evidence · text

> a blank, duplicate or certified reference material inserted into the sample stream every 10 samples

## 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.
