The program follows successful 2025 drilling that extended the B-9 Zone and discovered the high-grade Apex Zone, which features intercepts such as 20.1% Zn over 3.2 m. Reasoning: The announcement details the commencement of a new drill program following significant high-grade discovery and extension results at the Indy Sedex project. - Positive factor: High-grade Zn-Pb-Ag intercepts at Apex Zone - Positive factor: Significant strike extension of B-9 Zone - Positive factor: New drill program targeting expansion of high-grade discovery Facts used in scoring: 6 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: The company reports a 125% extension of the B-9 Zone to over 1000 m in strike length. Evidence · text > In 2025, exploration drilling achieved a 125% extension of the near-surface B-9 Zone to over 1000 m in 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: The release includes a sign-off by a Qualified Person \(Patrick McLaughlin, P.Geo.\).

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.
