## Minestarters Atlas summary

Gold Terra has reported high-grade gold assay results from its 2026 winter drill program in the Walsh Lake area, NWT. Notably, hole GTWL26-024 intersected 22.46 g/t Au over 5.7m, including a bonanza-grade intercept of 198 g/t Au over 0.5m, successfully extending the known gold corridor.

Reasoning: The release reports significant high-grade gold intercepts \(up to 198 g/t\) that extend the known strike length of the Walsh Lake gold corridor, representing a successful exploration step-out.

- Positive factor: High-grade intercept of 198 g/t Au

- Positive factor: Step-out extension of known gold corridor

- Positive factor: QA/QC protocols and certified lab disclosed

Facts used in scoring: 10

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: 198 g/t Au is exceptionally high for an orogenic gold deposit.

Evidence · text

> 198 g/t over 0.5 metres

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Drilling confirmed the northern extension of the gold corridor beyond the known 500m strike length.

Evidence · text

> expand the Walsh Lake gold corridor beyond the known 500m strike 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: Release mentions certified standards, blanks, and ALS as a certified laboratory.

Evidence · text

> The Company inserts certified standards and blanks into the sample stream as a check on laboratory Quality Control \(QC\).

## 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.
