The intercepts extended mineralization more than 100 meters beyond the current resource boundary and included near-surface intercepts. Reasoning: The first three holes of a 20,000m program intercepted mineralization >100m outside the current resource boundary with grades higher than the existing MRE, representing significant step-out success. - Positive factor: Step-Out Extension - Positive factor: Resource expansion outside current boundary - Positive factor: High-grade intercepts relative to existing MRE - Positive factor: Near-surface mineralization - Negative factor: Apparent width only \(true width not explicitly stated for all intercepts\) Facts used in scoring: 10 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Intercepted mineralization more than 100 meters outside the current resource boundary. Evidence · text > intercepted mineralization more than 100 meters outside the current resource boundary **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 technical content was reviewed by a Qualified Person under NI 43-101. Evidence · text > The technical content of the underlying release was reviewed by the company's Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101. **Apparent Width Only** Polarity: negative Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness. Why it applies: Reported thicknesses are downhole widths with true widths estimated at 70-90%. Evidence · text > reported thicknesses are downhole widths, with true widths estimated at roughly 70% to 90% of those figures. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 10.

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.
