The company is reviewing historical data to identify new exploration targets near the historic Engineer Gold Mine and the Tag property. Reasoning: The document is a corporate update regarding compilation and targeting work rather than new assay results or a new resource estimate. It provides context on historical high-grade targets and existing resources at the Engineer and Tag properties. - Positive factor: Compilation of historical data to identify new targets - Positive factor: Presence of drill permits in the Wann River area - Positive factor: High-grade historical grab samples reported - Negative factor: Reliance on historical resources that have not been confirmed by recent work - Negative factor: Historical resources pre-date 2019 CIM Guidelines Facts used in scoring: 6 ## Classification and evidence **Nearology Play** Polarity: neutral Story-specific tag Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results. Why it applies: The Wann River area is described as being approximately 4 km south of the historic Engineer Gold Mine. Evidence · text > The Wann River area lies approximately 4 km south of the historic Engineer Gold Mine **Historical Estimate Only** Polarity: negative Story-specific tag Definition: Estimate pre-dates or does not comply with current JORC/NI 43-101 standards — requires verification drilling. Why it applies: The document discusses historical resource estimates for the Engineer and Tag properties that pre-date 2019 CIM guidelines and have not been confirmed by recent work. Evidence · text > The Company has done no further work to confirm this historical resource. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 6. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Resource Estimates (6) ### inferred [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/engineer-gold-mines-ltd-provides-update-on-compilation-targeting-work-at-wann-ri--9b1af4ab-b91e-4d92-a74d-ca5c4f2e2768#fact-resource-facts-0) Engineer Gold Mine · gold Historical result Needs review: historical\_restatement #### Identity - Project: Engineer Gold Mine - Commodity: gold - Region: canada\_bc - Reported Region: British Columbia - Ticker: EAU #### Resource scope - Estimate type: resource - Resource group id: resource:cf6cb0f8b114b3faf34e - Mining method: underground - Material type: mixed #### Resource Data - Category: inferred - Tonnes: 41000 - Grade: 19 - Grade Unit: g/t - Contained Metal: 25000 - Contained Unit: oz - Cutoff Grade: 5 - Cutoff Unit: g/t Au #### Review - Needs Review: Yes - Review Reason: historical\_restatement - Historical: Yes - Historical Source Date: 2018-01-01T00:00:00.000Z #### Dates - Event date: 2023-02-27T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: Historical inferred resource for the Engineer Gold Mine. - Negative factor: Pre-dates 2019 CIM Guidelines - Negative factor: No recent work to confirm Evidence · text > The historic Engineer Gold mine is a narrow vein past producing underground gold mine with an Inferred Mineral Resource of 41,000 t grading 19.0 g/t gold for 25,000 oz contained gold. #### Tags used in scoring **Inferred Resource** Polarity: negative Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed.
