## Minestarters Atlas summary

Fortune Bay Corp. announced high-grade gold drill results from its Goldfields Gold Project in Saskatchewan, Canada. The initial three holes from an ongoing exploration program at the Box deposit confirmed the continuation of structurally-controlled, higher-grade mineralization at depth, extending beyond the current PEA open-pit limits. Notable intercepts include 6.61 g/t gold over 5.0 meters within 2.54 g/t over 17.0 meters in hole B25-346, and 8.72 g/t gold over 2.0 meters in hole B25-347. The company plans further step-out drilling to expand the resource and make new discoveries.

Reasoning: New drill results from the Goldfields Gold Project confirm high-grade gold mineralization at depth, extending beyond the current PEA open-pit limits, indicating strong potential for resource expansion. The company has disclosed robust QA/QC protocols and compositing details, though true widths are estimated.

- Positive factor: High-grade gold intercepts confirm continuity at depth

- Positive factor: Drilling extends mineralization beyond current PEA open-pit limits

- Positive factor: Strong QA/QC protocols disclosed

- Positive factor: Compositing parameters are transparent

- Positive factor: Program targets resource expansion and new discoveries

- Negative factor: True width is estimated, not explicitly stated for each intercept

- Negative factor: Lab certification not explicitly stated in the document

Facts used in scoring: 15

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: Multiple intercepts reported grades well above the exceptional threshold for gold \(e.g., 6.61 g/t, 6.95 g/t, 8.72 g/t\).

Evidence · table

> 6.61

Context: 5.0

**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: The document states that lengths represent core length and true thickness is an approximation, not explicitly provided for individual intercepts.

Evidence · table

> Lengths shown represent core length. True thickness of the mineralized intercepts is expected to be approximately 80% of the core length

**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: The release provides a detailed description of sampling, assaying, and QA/QC procedures including blanks, standards, duplicates, and umpire testing.

Evidence · text

> Certified reference blank and standard material is being used by the Company for independent QAQC of assay results. QAQC samples are inserted into assay sample sequences and results are reviewed to assess for any potential laboratory contamination and to verify assay accuracy and precision. A selected suite of samples will also be sent to another laboratory for additional "umpire" assay testing to further verify the results.

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals.

Why it applies: The document clearly states the minimum lower cut-off of 0.5 g/t Au and maximum 5 metres of consecutive waste for compositing.

Evidence · table

> Results shown are assays from 1 metre samples composited into longer intervals with a minimum lower cut-off of 0.5 g/t Au, and maximum 5 metres of consecutive waste defined as &lt; 0.3 g/t Au.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Drill holes were designed to test substantial down-dip gaps and target resource expansion beyond the open-pit limits, with plans for additional larger step-out holes.

Evidence · text

> The three drill holes were designed to test substantial down-dip gaps in previous drill coverage at the Box deposit \(up to 170 m\) targeting resource expansion beyond the open-pit limits defined in the Updated Preliminary Economic Assessment

## 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.
