## Minestarters Atlas summary

Cygnus has commenced new drilling and Downhole Electromagnetics \(DHEM\) programs at its Chibougamau Copper-Gold Project in Canada. The campaign is designed to extend known mineralization and test targets identified from recent high-grade intersections.

Reasoning: The company is initiating new drilling and DHEM programs to extend mineralization at the Chibougamau project, targeting recently defined high-grade intersections.

- Positive factor: New exploration and geophysics programs initiated

- Positive factor: Recent high-grade intersection reported as a target

Facts used in scoring: 1

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The campaign aims to extend known mineralisation and drill recently defined targets.

Evidence · text

> aims to extend known mineralisation, drill recently defined targets

#### Geometry

- Grade: 1
- Grade Unit: g/t
- Intercept: 28.9 m

#### Classification

- Sample Type: drill
- Group ID: null:0-28.9
- Mining Method: unknown

#### Location

- Location: Cedar Bay

#### Metal Equivalent

- Metal Eq. Grade: 2.5
- Metal Eq. Unit: g/t AuEq
- Assumptions Disclosed: No

#### Review

- Needs Review: Yes
- Review Reason: drill\_no\_hole\_id
- Interp. Status: scored
- Historical: No

#### Dates

- Event date: 2026-02-22T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Reported 28.9m at 1.0g/t Au \(2.5g/t AuEq\) serves as a high-grade target for follow-up.

- Positive factor: Significant width and grade reported for a target intersection

Evidence · text

> 28.9m at 2.5g/t AuEq \(1.0g/t Au, 1.0

#### 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

**Metal Equivalent Opaque**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Metal equivalent grade reported without disclosing the price, recovery, or payability assumptions used. Requires an actual metal equivalent grade; a combined elemental basket such as PGE is not a metal equivalent.

Why it applies: an equivalent grade is reported without its assumptions

## 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.
