## Minestarters Atlas summary

Coniagas Battery Metals has more than doubled its Graal copper-nickel-cobalt property in Quebec to 148 km² following a successful helicopter-borne time-domain electromagnetic \(HTDEM\) survey. The survey confirmed known magmatic sulphide mineralization and identified new targets, providing a clearer map for the next phase of drilling aimed at a maiden mineral resource estimate. The company also presented selected historical drill intercepts illustrating the character of the mineralization, with true widths estimated at 80-90% of reported lengths.

Reasoning: Coniagas Battery Metals has significantly expanded its Graal property based on a successful HTDEM survey, which confirmed existing mineralization and identified new exploration targets, de-risking future exploration and advancing the project towards a maiden resource estimate, despite the drill results being historical.

- Positive factor: Significant property expansion \(doubled to 148 km²\)

- Positive factor: Successful HTDEM survey confirming known mineralization and identifying new targets

- Positive factor: Advancing towards a maiden mineral resource estimate

- Positive factor: Focus on critical battery metals \(copper, nickel, cobalt\)

- Positive factor: Good regional infrastructure \(hydroelectric power, road, rail, port\)

- Positive factor: True width estimated for historical intercepts

- Negative factor: Drill results presented are historical, not new assays

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

Facts used in scoring: 12

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The HTDEM survey identified extensions at Lac Suzanne-NO and Nourricier A and B, and the new staking was selected to bring that ground under a single contiguous land position.

Evidence · text

> defined extensions at Lac Suzanne-NO located in the north part of the property as well as at Nourricier A and Nourricier B in the south. Comparable signatures in adjacent regional data, of the same character as those over known mineralization, led to the new staking which was selected to bring that ground under a single contiguous land position.

**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 technical information was reviewed and approved by a Qualified Person, and the QP believes drilling and analytical results were completed to industry standard practices.

Evidence · text

> The technical information reported in this news release was reviewed and approved by Maxime Bouchard, Geo, M.Sc. \(OGQ \#1752\), an independent Qualified Person as defined by Canadian NI 43-101 standards. The Qualified Person has not completed sufficient work to verify the historical information on the Property, particularly regarding historical drill results. However, the Qualified Person believes that drilling and analytical results were completed to industry standard practices.

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The document explicitly states that true widths are estimated at approximately 80–90% of reported intercept lengths.

Evidence · text

> True widths are estimated at approximately 80–90% of reported intercept lengths.

**Maiden Resource**

Polarity: neutral

Story-specific tag

Definition: First formal MRE for the project — establishes baseline but typically exploration-stage with high Inferred component. No prior estimate exists, so every change band is not applicable.

Why it applies: The company is advancing towards a maiden mineral resource estimate for the Graal project.

Evidence · text

> advance toward a maiden mineral resource estimate

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The drill intercepts presented are explicitly stated as 'selected intercepts from previous drilling' and are historical.

Evidence · text

> The following selected intercepts from previous drilling at Graal illustrate the character of the mineralization being targeted

**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: Maxime Bouchard, Geo, M.Sc. \(OGQ \#1752\), an independent Qualified Person, reviewed and approved the technical information.

Evidence · text

> The technical information reported in this news release was reviewed and approved by Maxime Bouchard, Geo, M.Sc. \(OGQ \#1752\), an independent Qualified Person as defined by Canadian NI 43-101 standards.

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The expanded property is positioned within an 'emerging critical-minerals district' and 'one of Quebec’s most active critical-minerals corridors'.

Evidence · text

> The expanded property lies within an emerging critical-minerals district supported by established hydroelectric power, road and rail access, and the deep-water Port of Saguenay.

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The company's objective is to advance toward a maiden mineral resource estimate, which typically involves infill drilling to define the resource.

Evidence · text

> advance toward a maiden mineral resource estimate

#### 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 2.72

**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

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: drill\_program\_type is "resource"

## 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.
