## Minestarters Atlas summary

Gold Terra has commenced a fall drilling program at the Con Mine Option Property using three rigs. The program targets Zone 103 North, the historical tailings storage facility, and the Yellorex deposit to support an upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment \(PEA\).

Reasoning: The company is actively advancing multiple targets \(Zone 103N, TSF, Yellorex\) to support an upcoming PEA, with successful structural intersections reported, though high-grade assay results are pending.

- Positive factor: Active drilling program with multiple rigs

- Positive factor: Successful intersection of Campbell Shear in Zone 103N

- Positive factor: Visible gold noted in geological logs

- Positive factor: Strategic focus on historical tailings for potential low-grade stockpile

- Negative factor: Assays for the most recent significant intersection are still pending

Facts used in scoring: 3

## Classification and evidence

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The Yellorex program is described as infill drilling to complete holes not accessible in winter.

Evidence · text

> Yellorex In fill and Metallurgical Sampling Drilling

**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 names a Qualified Person \(Joseph Campbell\) responsible for the technical information.

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by Joseph Campbell, a Qualified Person

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone.

Why it applies: The document references an existing Inferred Mineral Resource for Zone 103N.

Evidence · text

> Underground Inferred Mineral Resource of 5,083,000 tonnes averaging 3.64 g/t Au

**Single Domain Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Testing limited to one composite or domain — representativeness not established.

Why it applies: only one composite was tested

- Interp. Status: scored
- Historical: No

#### Dates

- Event date: 2026-09-17T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Significant width intersection of the target shear with visible gold noted in logs, though grade is not yet confirmed by assay.

- Positive factor: Successful intersection of Campbell Shear

- Positive factor: Visible gold noted in logs

- Negative factor: Assays are pending

Evidence · text

> GTCM26-061a recently completed has also intersected the Campbell shear with a very good intersection of 5.3 metres from 845.6 to 850.9 metres

#### Tags used in scoring

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: qaqc\_disclosed is not true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: proximity is offered as the value premise: "Gold Terra is currently focusing its drilling on the Campbell Shear, where approximately 14 Moz of gold has been produce"

## 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.
