## Minestarters Atlas summary

RUA GOLD Inc. reported drill results from its Auld Creek gold-antimony project in New Zealand, highlighting improving gold grades with depth. The results from holes ACDDH027 and ACDDH028 intersected high-grade gold and antimony mineralization.

Reasoning: Drilling at Auld Creek shows improving gold grades with depth and high-grade antimony in narrow shoots, supporting the existing resource.

- Positive factor: improving gold grades with depth

- Positive factor: high-grade antimony accompanying gold

- Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed via CP sign-off

Facts used in scoring: 7

## 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: Technical information reviewed and approved by Simon Henderson, CP, AUSIMM, a Qualified Person.

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by Simon Henderson , CP, AUSIMM, a Qualified Person

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: ACDDH028 returned 48.3 g/t AuEq which is exceptionally high grade.

Evidence · text

> 48.3g/t AuEq

## 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.
