## Minestarters Atlas summary

Legacy Gold reported high-grade gold results from its first 2026 RC hole \(LG26-005\) at the Baner Property in Idaho. The hole extended the Main Zone 220m north, featuring a notable 15.8 g/t Au over 1.5m intercept and wide near-surface mineralization.

Reasoning: The first 2026 RC hole successfully extended the Main Zone 220m north with high-grade, wide near-surface intercepts, demonstrating significant exploration success.

- Positive factor: Significant grade extension \(220m north\)

- Positive factor: Near-surface mineralization

- Positive factor: High-grade intercept \(15.8 g/t Au\)

- Positive factor: Wide mineralization \(24.4m\)

- Negative factor: RC drilling completed early due to budget/equipment constraints

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Mineralization extended 220m north of the nearest previous drill intersection.

Evidence · text

> LG26-005 extended Main Zone gold mineralization 220m \(720ft\) north of the nearest previous drill intersection

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: 15.8 g/t Au over 1.5m is exceptionally high grade for this deposit type.

Evidence · text

> including 15.8 g/t Au over 1.5 m \(5 ft\)

**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 discloses use of blanks, standards, and duplicates, and names an accredited lab \(ISO 17025\).

Evidence · text

> The Company's QA/QC program includes the regular insertion of blanks and standards into the sample shipments. Duplicates were prepared on-site

**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: True widths are explicitly stated as unknown in the notes.

Evidence · text

> True widths are unknown until zone dips are proven.

## 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.
