## Minestarters Atlas summary

Fireweed Metals has reported successful step-out drilling at the Tom South zone of the Macpass Project, extending the known mineralized zone significantly. Notable intercepts include 30m true width at 8.09% ZnEq in hole TS26-001 and a 16m true width at 4.17% ZnEq in hole TS25-003.

Reasoning: Significant step-out drilling at Tom South has expanded the mineralized zone 300m down-dip and 45m laterally, intersecting high-grade zinc-lead-silver mineralization outside the current resource extent.

- Positive factor: Step-Out Extension

- Positive factor: True Width Disclosed

- Positive factor: QA/QC Disclosed

- Negative factor: Apparent Width Only

## 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.
