## Minestarters Atlas summary

Founders Metals Inc. announced positive deep auger drilling results from its Maria Geralda target in southeastern Suriname, successfully mapping a coherent, plunging high-grade gold shoot. Key intercepts include 12.0 m of 10.57 g/t Au and 30.0 m of 4.64 g/t Au, confirming the continuity of previously reported high-grade diamond drill results. This program provides a precise targeting framework for follow-up diamond drilling into untested bedrock, with the target remaining open at depth.

Reasoning: The deep auger drilling program at Maria Geralda successfully delineated a coherent, high-grade, plunging gold shoot, confirming the continuity of significant gold mineralization and providing a robust targeting framework for future diamond drilling into bedrock, which is a highly positive development for the project.

- Positive factor: High-grade intercepts, including 12.0 m of 10.57 g/t Au and 30.0 m of 4.64 g/t Au, confirm significant gold mineralization.

- Positive factor: The deep auger program successfully defined a coherent, plunging high-grade gold shoot, providing critical 3D geometric understanding.

- Positive factor: The results provide a precise targeting framework for follow-up diamond drilling into untested bedrock, de-risking future exploration.

- Positive factor: The target remains open at depth, indicating potential for further expansion.

- Positive factor: Comprehensive QA/QC procedures are disclosed, including certified laboratories and QP sign-off, enhancing data credibility.

- Positive factor: True widths are estimated, providing better context for the reported intercept lengths.

- Negative factor: Current drilling is limited to saprolite \(weathered rock\) and has not yet tested the bedrock where the primary target lies.

- Negative factor: Some reported intercepts are of lower grade, though still above the stated cut-off.

## 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: The release includes a detailed 'Quality Assurance and Control' section mentioning certified laboratories \(Bureau Veritas, ALS Global\), QP sign-off, and methods like blanks, standards, and external checks.

Evidence · text

> Quality Assurance and Control Samples were collected at 1 m intervals from vertical auger holes drilled to 30 m depth in saprolite using a 5" diameter Little Beaver deep auger. Each interval was homogenized and split: one half was washed and sieved to retain coarse rock chips for geological logging, and the other submitted to the laboratory. Samples were submitted to FILAB Suriname, a Bureau Veritas Certified Laboratory in Paramaribo, Suriname \(a commercial certified laboratory under ISO 9001:2015\). Samples are crushed to 75% passing 2.35 mm screen, riffle split \(700 g\) and pulverized to 85% passing 88 µm. Samples were analyzed using a 50 g fire assay \(50 g aliquot\) with an Atomic Absorption \(AA\) finish. For samples that return assay values over 10.0 grams per tonne \(g/t\), another cut was taken from the original pulp and fire assayed with a gravimetric finish. Founders Metals inserts blanks and certified reference standards in the sample sequence for quality control. External QA-QC checks are performed at ALS Global Laboratories \(Geochemistry Division\) in Lima, Peru \(an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited facility\). A secure chain of custody is maintained in transporting and storing of all samples. Qualified Persons The technical content of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Michael Dufresne, M.Sc., P.Geol., P.Geo., an independent qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.

**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 cut-off grade of 0.10 g/t Au and maximum internal dilution of &lt;5.0 m of zero grade used for calculating intercepts.

Evidence · text

> Intercepts are uncapped and calculated using a 0.10 g/t Au cutoff grade with &lt;5.0 m of internal dilution of zero grade, and a minimum composite length of 2.0 m.

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: The document states that 'True widths are approximately 80-85%', providing an estimate for the true thickness of the mineralization.

Evidence · text

> True widths are approximately 80-85%.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The release indicates the 'Target remains open at depth' and the auger data provides a 'targeting framework for follow-up diamond drilling down plunge into untested bedrock', suggesting extension of mineralization.

Evidence · text

> Target remains open at depth with 20 deep auger holes ending in mineralization at the 30 m auger limit New auger data defines shoot orientation, plunge direction, and dimensions, providing a precise targeting framework for follow-up diamond drilling down plunge into untested bedrock

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty.

Why it applies: The document references a previously reported diamond drill intercept in hole MG003 from June 24, 2025, and other auger results from February 19, 2026, without providing new assays for them.

Evidence · text

> previously reported diamond drill intercept of 22.5 metres \(m\) of 11.88 grams per tonne \(g/t\) gold \(Au\) in hole MG003 \(announced June 24, 2025\)

Reasoning: This intercept is low grade for the deposit type, but still contributes to the overall understanding of the mineralized footprint.

- Positive factor: Intercept is above the stated cut-off grade.

- Negative factor: Low grade \(1.19 g/t Au\) for an orogenic system, falling below the weak threshold.

- Negative factor: Drilling is in saprolite, not bedrock.

Reasoning: This historical intercept represents an exceptional gold grade over a significant width, and its continuity is now confirmed by the current auger program, validating the project's potential.

- Positive factor: Exceptional high-grade gold intercept \(11.88 g/t Au\) over a significant width \(22.5 m\) for an orogenic system.

- Positive factor: The grade-thickness product \(267.3 g/t·m\) is strong, indicating a substantial amount of gold.

- Positive factor: This historical intercept is confirmed by the current auger program to be part of a coherent high-grade shoot.

- Negative factor: This is a previously reported result, so novelty is low.

## 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.
