## Minestarters Atlas summary

Galleon Gold has extended the Zone \#9 corridor at the West Cache Gold Project to a vertical depth of 500 metres. Drill results from holes WC-26-238, WC-26-240, and WC-26-236 confirm continuity and strike extension, tracing mineralization towards the historic West Deep zone.

Reasoning: The results demonstrate significant down-plunge extension of the Zone \#9 corridor, linking recent drilling to historic high-grade zones and increasing the scale of the mineralized system.

- Positive factor: Significant vertical extent extension \(500m\)

- Positive factor: Continuity demonstrated between recent and historic drilling

- Positive factor: High-grade intercepts \(up to 10.13 g/t Au\)

- Positive factor: Step-out extension of Zone \#9 corridor

- Positive factor: QA/QC protocols clearly disclosed

Facts used in scoring: 10

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The results extend Zone \#9 mineralization 360 metres down-plunge.

Evidence · text

> The results extend Zone \#9 mineralization 360 metres down-plunge

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The assay table provides a 'Length\(TT\)' column for true thickness.

Evidence · table

> 21.86

Context: 23.25

**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 details protocols including AGAT Laboratories, CRM, and duplicate insertion rates.

Evidence · text

> Commercially prepared certified reference material \(CRM\) and duplicate samples are inserted

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: Intercept of 10.13 g/t Au over 2.05 m is exceptionally high grade.

Evidence · table

> 10.13

Context: 2.05

## 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.
