The company also approved a 25,000m diamond drilling program to expand the Caneleira target and delineate mineral resources. Reasoning: The company achieved a critical permitting milestone \(EIA completion\) and is launching a significant 25,000m drill program to expand a high-grade target. - Positive factor: Major permitting milestone achieved with completion of EIA field studies - Positive factor: Approval of 25,000m accelerated drill program to expand Caneleira target - Positive factor: High-grade near-surface intercepts previously reported \(up to 99.56 g/t Au\) - Positive factor: Consolidation of Caneleira into a single larger target footprint - Negative factor: No mineral resources estimated to date at Caneleira or Caneleira East - Negative factor: Metallurgical test work is only planned, not yet completed Facts used in scoring: 4 ## 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 details sample handling, ALS laboratory use, and insertion of blanks, standards, and duplicates. Evidence · text > Certified standards, non-certified blanks and field duplicates are inserted into the sample stream **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: Hole 26CN044 contains an intercept of 99.56 g/t Au. Evidence · text > including 99.56 g/t Au over a drilled width of 0.85m **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: The document explicitly states 'Drilled width, true width not known'. Evidence · text > Drilled width, true width not known. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (4) ### 26CN044 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/lavras-gold-approves-accelerated-drill-program-on-expanded-caneleira-target-and--1d80ed7b-758c-4b76-821e-19c36a983d0c#fact-drill-facts-0) Caneleira Target · gold #### Identity - Hole ID: 26CN044 - Project: Caneleira Target - Commodity: gold - Region: brazil - Reported Region: brazil - Ticker: LGC.V #### Geometry - Grade: 24.3 - Grade Unit: g/t - Intercept: 9 m - From: 87 m - To: 96 m - Intercept Depth: 87 m #### Classification - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: 26CN044:87-96 - Mining Method: open\_pit #### Location - Location: Caneleira - Loc.

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.
