## Minestarters Atlas summary

Kirkland Lake Discoveries reported assay results from its 2026 diamond drilling program at the Mirado property in Ontario, highlighting a new mineralized fault zone and a significant 180-meter step-out. Hole KLM26-006 intersected 2.46 g/t Au over 14.7 m in the new Mirado Fault Zone, including higher-grade sub-intervals, while KLM26-005 confirmed continuity in the South Zone. The results expand the known mineralization and validate the company's geological model, with assays pending for a key step-out hole showing visible gold.

Reasoning: Kirkland Lake Discoveries announced strong drill results, including the discovery of a new mineralized fault zone with high-grade gold intercepts and a significant 180m step-out that expands the Mirado South mineralization. This indicates substantial exploration potential and strengthens the geological model, despite some individual intercepts being below the project's historical average grade.

- Positive factor: Discovery of a new mineralized fault zone \(Mirado Fault Zone\)

- Positive factor: Significant 180m step-out extending mineralization

- Positive factor: Multiple high-grade gold intercepts, including bonanza grades

- Positive factor: Confirmation of geological continuity in South and North Zones

- Positive factor: Comprehensive QA/QC disclosure and QP sign-off

- Negative factor: Some intercepts are below the project's historical average grade

- Negative factor: Assays for visible gold in KLM26-010 are pending

Facts used in scoring: 16

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The intercept of 14.72 g/t Au over 0.8 m and 12.52 g/t Au over 1.8 m are exceptionally high grades for orogenic gold deposits.

Evidence · table

> 14.72 g/t Au over 0.8 m

Context: 0.8

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The document states that 'True widths are estimated at approximately 80% of the reported core length intervals'.

Evidence · text

> True widths are estimated at approximately 80% of the reported core length intervals.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The drilling includes a '180 m Step-Out' that 'Expands Mirado South Mineralization' and KLM26-010 is described as a 'step-out of 180 m from historical resource limits'.

Evidence · text

> 180 m Step-Out Expands Mirado South Mineralization

**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 dedicated 'Data Verification & Quality Assurance/Quality Control \(QA/QC\)' section detailing laboratory, QP sign-off, and methods like standards and blanks.

Evidence · text

> Data Verification & Quality Assurance/Quality Control \(QA/QC\)

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals.

Why it applies: The document clearly states the compositing rules: 'Reported intervals are calculated using a weighted average grade with a 0.2 g/t Au cutoff' and 'up to 3.0 m of internal dilution \(consecutive material below cutoff\) is included within reported composites'.

Evidence · text

> Reported intervals are calculated using a weighted average grade with a 0.2 g/t Au cutoff. To reflect the continuity of mineralization within the broader system, up to 3.0 m of internal dilution \(consecutive material below cutoff\) is included within reported composites.

## 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.
