The company also completed its maiden drilling program at Kasie Ridge, with assay results for both programs expected in late August 2026. Reasoning: The announcement reports the start of a new drilling program at a high-grade surface target \(Magiabe West\) and the completion of a maiden program at Kasie Ridge. While surface grades are exceptional, the actual drill assays for the current programs are pending. - Positive factor: high-grade surface sampling at newly discovered Magiabe West Vein - Positive factor: commencement of systematic drilling at Magiabe - Positive factor: completion of Kasie Ridge maiden program - Negative factor: assay results for Kasie Ridge holes are still pending - Negative factor: historical results not independently verified Facts used in scoring: 14 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Discovery of Magiabe West Vein 100m west of main vein. Evidence · text > identified the previously undrilled, high-grade Magiabe West Vein, approximately 100 m west of the main Magiabe Vein **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 details specific laboratory procedures and QA/QC protocols. Evidence · text > Great Pacific Gold inserts certified reference materials, blanks and duplicate samples into the sample stream **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.
