The company is advancing toward a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate in 2026 and has identified new targets at the Kotobi Permit. Reasoning: The company reported strong drilling results and significant exploration progress across multiple zones, moving closer to a maiden resource estimate. - Positive factor: Significant drilling progress \(20,000m in 2025\) - Positive factor: High-grade intercepts reported \(6.84 g/t Au\) - Positive factor: Advancing toward maiden Mineral Resource Estimate - Positive factor: Identification of new targets Facts used in scoring: 5 ## Classification and evidence **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 mentions 2,613 QA/QC samples and 134 QA/QC samples for soil. Evidence · text > including 2,613 QA/QC samples **Infill Drilling** Polarity: neutral Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. Why it applies: Drilling is described as advancing geological and resource modelling at Jagger and Road Cut Zones. Evidence · text > advanced geological and resource modelling at the Jagger and Road Cut Zones ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 5.

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.
