## Minestarters Atlas summary

Cosigo Resources has completed a technical test converting its portable 'Hornet' drill from an RC to a core system at the Taraira North property. While the test revealed a new conglomerate layer and trace gold \(up to 380 ppb Au\), the small machine faced significant drilling difficulties due to sanding.

Reasoning: The announcement focuses on a technical drill conversion test rather than a major discovery, though it successfully identified a new stratigraphic unit and trace gold.

- Positive factor: Successful conversion of portable drill from RC to core system

- Positive factor: Discovery of previously unsuspected conglomerate layer

- Positive factor: Presence of gold assays up to 380 ppb in Gallinero 2

- Negative factor: Low core recovery in several intervals \(as low as 16.8%\)

- Negative factor: Drilling difficulties due to sanding/choking in small machine

- Negative factor: Very low grade intercepts \(ppb range\) not meeting economic thresholds

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**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: Erik Ostensoe, P.Geo. \(Qualified Person\) has reviewed and approved the technical disclosure.

Evidence · text

> Erik Ostensoe, P.Geo., ... a Qualified Person ... has reviewed Gallinero 1 &amp; 2 drill cores and approves the scientific and technical disclosure

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The placement of test holes was for convenience near the camp and not for geological potential, serving as a technical test.

Evidence · text

> Placement of the test drill holes was determined for convenience near the Cosigo camp tool shop and not for geological potential.

#### Tags used in scoring

**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

## 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.
