## Minestarters Atlas summary

Canada Carbon Inc. has completed its third drilling campaign at the Asbury Graphite Property in Quebec, totaling 2,517 meters. The company intends to use this data for an upcoming NI 43-101 resource update and a pre-feasibility study due by June 2026.

Reasoning: The company completed a drilling campaign to support future resource and PFS work, though actual drilling was less than planned. It also restates historical resource and drill results.

- Positive factor: Completion of third drilling campaign

- Positive factor: Ongoing de-risking activity

- Positive factor: Plans for NI 43-101 resource update and PFS

- Negative factor: Planned drilling meters \(5,200m\) significantly exceeded actual meters completed \(2,517m\)

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The campaign is described as ongoing de-risking activity to update a resource report.

Evidence · text

> this campaign will provide the company with over 7,500 meters of core samples which will continue its ongoing de-risking activity at Asbury.

**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 a Qualified Person \(Maxime Dupere, P.Geo, OGQ\) who reviewed and approved the technical information.

Evidence · text

> This press release was prepared by Maxime Dupere, P.Geo, OGQ a “Qualified Person” as defined under National Instrument 43-101

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone.

Why it applies: The maiden resource estimate reported is entirely in the inferred category.

Evidence · text

> reported an inferred resource of 4.14 Mt with an average grade of 3.05% Cg

## 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.
