## Minestarters Atlas summary

LithiumBank Resources Corp. has completed the collection of a 150 cubic metre bulk brine sample from its 100% owned Boardwalk Lithium Project in Alberta. The sample will be used for Direct Lithium Extraction \(DLE\) optimization, lithium carbonate conversion testing, and hydrogeological modeling.

Reasoning: The company successfully completed a key hydrogeological and metallurgical sampling milestone, providing data for DLE optimization and future feasibility studies.

- Positive factor: Successful collection of 150 m3 bulk brine sample

- Positive factor: QA/QC protocols implemented including umpire and synthetic standards

- Positive factor: Independent QP oversight on-site

- Positive factor: Milestone 1 of ERA funding completed

Facts used in scoring: 1

## Classification and evidence

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: Release details specific QA/QC measures including hourly sampling, use of AGAT Laboratory, umpire labs, synthetic standards, and blanks.

Evidence · text

> Industry standard Quality Control and Quality Assurance \(" QA/QC "\) measures were practiced during sample collection which included: one litre brine samples were collected every hour to monitor salinity and identify when native brine was flowing.

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience.

Why it applies: Maurice Shevalier \(M.Sc., P.Chem\) and Kevin Piepgrass \(P.Geo\) are named as Qualified Persons for the technical information.

Evidence · text

> The scientific and technical information disclosed in this news release that relates to the exploration sampling was reviewed and approved by Maurice Shevalier, M.Sc., P.Chem, who is a Qualified Person \(QP\)

**Single Domain Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Testing limited to one composite or domain — representativeness not established.

Why it applies: only one composite was tested

## 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.
