## Minestarters Atlas summary

Kalo Gold has announced drill results from its Qiriyaga Complex, confirming a vertically continuous gold system at the QC1 target. Hole VA26-DH17 intersected 16.90 m at 3.25 g/t Au, including a higher-grade sub-interval of 9.00 m at 4.66 g/t Au. The company also identified a high-priority untested epithermal feeder zone at approximately 395 metres depth, indicating significant exploration potential.

Reasoning: Kalo Gold's drill results confirm a vertically continuous high-grade gold system at Qiriyaga Complex, with a significant intercept of 16.90 m at 3.25 g/t Au \(including 9.00 m at 4.66 g/t Au\) in VA26-DH17, and identify a high-priority untested epithermal feeder target at depth. The results also confirm gold mineralization in three independent diatreme structures and validate a blind geophysical target, indicating significant exploration potential.

- Positive factor: High-grade intercept

- Positive factor: True width disclosed

- Positive factor: Vertically continuous system confirmed

- Positive factor: Untested feeder target identified

- Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed

- Positive factor: Blind target confirmed

- Negative factor: Apparent width only for some historical intercepts

- Negative factor: No significant gold in some holes

Facts used in scoring: 20

## Classification and evidence

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states true widths for the intercepts in VA26-DH17, such as '~7.1 m' for the 7.50 m interval.

Evidence · table

> ~7.1 m

Context: 7.50

**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 details QA/QC procedures including certified lab \(ALS Limited, NATA accredited to ISO/IEC 17025\), QP sign-off, and methods like certified reference materials, blank samples, and field duplicates.

Evidence · text

> Certified Fire Assay: ALS Limited, Au-AA25. No top-cut applied. ... Certified Fire Assay \(ALS Limited, Au-AA25\) is the basis for all NI 43-101 reportable results. ... The technical information in this news release was prepared, reviewed, and approved by Andrew Randell, P.Geo., CEO and Principal Geoscientist of SGDS-Hive, Technical Director of the Vatu Aurum Project, and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. ... Samples were securely shipped to ALS Limited \(Australia\) for analysis. ... ALS Limited is accredited by NATA to ISO/IEC 17025 and is independent of the Company and the Qualified Person. The Company inserts certified reference materials, blank samples, and field duplicates into the sample stream as part of its QA/QC programme.

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: Several historical intercepts, such as VA25-DH10, VA25-DH12, VA25-DH13, and VA25-DH14, are reported with 'Not determined' for true width, indicating only downhole length is provided.

Evidence · table

> Not determined

Context: 5.5

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty.

Why it applies: The results for VA25-DH11 are explicitly stated as 'previously reported October 15, 2025', indicating a re-release of historical data.

Evidence · text

> VA25-DH11\* previously reported October 15, 2025. Results herein consistent with and supplement that disclosure.

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The document states 'No top-cut applied' for assays but does not disclose the cut-off grade used for compositing the reported intervals.

Evidence · text

> No top-cut applied.

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The intercept of 22.12 m at 12.80 g/t Au in VA25-DH11 is well above the exceptional threshold for epithermal gold \(>=5 g/t Au\).

Evidence · table

> 12.80

Context: 22.12

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The drilling confirms gold mineralization across three independent diatreme structures \(QC1, QC3, QC4\) and validates a blind geophysical target \(QC4\), indicating extension of known mineralization and new discoveries.

Evidence · text

> Three independent diatreme structures mineralised - QC1, QC3, and QC4 all confirmed gold-bearing Blind geophysical target confirmed on first drill hole - VA25-DH14 at QC4

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is 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

Reasoning: This narrow intercept of 1.5 m at 1.51 g/t Au is a moderate grade for an epithermal system, but its limited width reduces its materiality. It is significant for confirming a blind geophysical target on the first hole with high-grade style veining.

- Positive factor: Blind target confirmed

- Positive factor: Ginguro-style veining

- Negative factor: Apparent width only

- Negative factor: Narrow intercept

## 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.
