# Decade Provides Update on 2025 Exploration Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/decade-provides-update-on-2025-exploration--60367cd0-da75-4f11-ac74-7d47879df05e Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/DEC/news/7647150485724000/decade-provides-update-on-2025-exploration Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2025-09-25T12:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Decade Resources Ltd - Ticker: DEC - Exchange: TSX - Region: British Columbia - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: Silver, Copper, Zinc, Lead, Arsenic - Document categories: Drill results, Other - Extracted: 2026-09-15 19:14:40 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Decade Resources reports encouraging geochemical results from rock sampling on the Nobody Knows claim, including gold grades up to 10.87 g/t. The company has identified an intrusive dyke as a potential source and is working on a $1,000,000 financing to continue exploration. Reasoning: Encouraging geochemical results from rock sampling \(float\) indicating a potential wide source zone, though not yet confirmed by drilling. - Positive factor: High-grade gold and silver float samples - Positive factor: Identification of intrusive dyke source - Positive factor: Presence of chalcocite and bornite - Negative factor: Samples are selective float rocks, not in-situ - Negative factor: No drill intercepts reported yet Facts used in scoring: 8 ## 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: Release mentions a Qualified Person \(Ed Kruchkowski, P. Geo.\) and refers to assays received from analysis. Evidence · text > Ed. Kruchkowski, P. Geo., a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 **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: Arsenic levels up to 1.781% are reported in the rock samples.

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.
