## Minestarters Atlas summary

Canadian GoldCamps Corp. announced high-grade gold results from a quarter-core re-sampling program at its Mercator Gold Project in northeastern Québec. The program confirmed 2.05 g/t gold over 8.65 metres in drill hole MCT-22-08, including a peak of 15.46 g/t gold over 0.20 metre. Multi-element analysis also identified manganese \(up to 1.96% Mn\) and copper \(up to 240.5 ppm Cu\) enrichment, providing additional critical-mineral components and exploration vectors.

Reasoning: The document reports high-grade gold intercepts from a detailed re-sampling program, confirming the presence of a significant gold system. The multi-element analysis revealing manganese and copper enrichment adds a critical-mineral component and new exploration vectors. The comprehensive QA/QC and filing of an NI 43-101 report enhance confidence. While the results are from re-sampling historical holes and true widths are unknown, the detailed data provides valuable geological understanding and supports future exploration.

- Positive factor: High-grade gold intercepts confirmed by re-sampling, including a peak of 15.46 g/t Au over 0.20 m.

- Positive factor: Multi-element analysis identified significant manganese \(up to 1.96% Mn\) and copper \(up to 240.5 ppm Cu\) associated with gold, providing critical-mineral component and exploration vectors.

- Positive factor: Detailed QA/QC procedures disclosed, including certified lab, QP sign-off, and use of CRMs, blanks, and replicates.

- Positive factor: The re-sampling program provides higher resolution data \(25 cm sub-samples\) which is crucial for understanding nuggety, BIF-hosted gold systems.

- Positive factor: NI 43-101 Technical Report filed, recommending a C$4.895 million exploration program, indicating clear path forward.

- Negative factor: True widths are not known at this stage, which may overstate apparent widths.

- Negative factor: Quarter-core composites are generally lower than original 2022 half-core composites, attributed to irregular banding and smaller analytical support.

- Negative factor: The results are from a re-sampling program of historical holes, not new drilling, which limits the immediate impact on resource growth.

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

Evidence · text

> Intervals are core lengths; true widths are not known at this stage.

**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 details QA/QC procedures including the use of certified reference materials, blanks, and replicates, and mentions an independent commercial laboratory operating an ISO-grade quality-management system.

Evidence · text

> The laboratory inserted one certified reference material \(Oreas 236, certified value 1.85 ppm Au\), one preparation blank and one replicate per fire-assay batch

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience.

Why it applies: George Yordanov, P.Geo., President and CEO, is named as a 'Qualified Person' and has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information.

Evidence · text

> The scientific and technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by George Yordanov, P.Geo., M.Sc., a “Qualified Person” as defined under National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

**Refractory Ore**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Ore requires oxidation/pressure treatment before recovery — a processing and recovery risk.

Why it applies: The document describes gold mineralization hosted within silicate-sulphide banded iron formations \(BIFs\) with accessory minerals including pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, and löllingite, and mentions 'irregular, non-symmetric sulphide–gold banding' and 'high-nugget BIF-hosted systems', which can indicate metallurgical complexity.

Evidence · text

> sulphide–gold banding is irregular and non-symmetric around the core axis

**Deleterious Elements Present**

Polarity: negative

Definition: A source-stated penalty, refractory or recovery concern in the fact's scope. Element detection alone, including measured elements explicitly below penalty thresholds, does not trigger this tag. Respect negation and retain a separately stated concern even when another risk is explicitly absent.

Why it applies: The multi-element program identified arsenic up to 534 ppm, which is a known penalty element in some concentrates.

Evidence · text

> Arsenic reached 534 ppm and remains a useful pathfinder to gold within the Mercator BIF system.

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The program is a re-sampling of 'previously mineralized intervals in drill holes MCT-22-08, MCT-22-11 and MCT-22-03, drilled by Stelmine Canada Ltée in 2022', indicating that the core itself is historical.

#### Tags used in scoring

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is 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

**Deleterious Elements Present**

Polarity: negative

Definition: A source-stated penalty, refractory or recovery concern in the fact's scope. Element detection alone, including measured elements explicitly below penalty thresholds, does not trigger this tag. Respect negation and retain a separately stated concern even when another risk is explicitly absent.

Why it applies: deleterious\_flag is true
