## Minestarters Atlas summary

Magna Terra Minerals has expanded its Rocky Brook Project in New Brunswick by acquiring over 8,800 hectares to the northeast. Initial surface grab sampling at the Fournier Lake area returned gold assays up to 2.11 g/t, expanding the company's footprint near the Kinross-Puma discovery.

Reasoning: The company has successfully expanded its land package and confirmed gold mineralization via surface sampling, though the lack of drill intercepts limits geological confidence.

- Positive factor: Expansion of property footprint via new claim staking

- Positive factor: Discovery of gold mineralization in new area

- Positive factor: Strategic proximity to Kinross-Puma discovery

- Positive factor: Presence of high-grade historical VMS indicators

- Negative factor: Current gold results are from surface grab samples only, which are selective and non-representative

Facts used in scoring: 6

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Company expanded the footprint of the Fournier Lake Property by acquiring 8,829.4 hectares via staking 3 claims to the northeast.

Evidence · text

> the Company has expanded the footprint of the Fournier Lake Property by acquiring 8,829.4 hectares via staking 3 claims to the northeast

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: Project is strategically positioned along strike from Kinross-Puma's Lynx Zone gold discovery.

Evidence · text

> Strategically positioned along strike from Kinross-Puma's Lynx Zone gold discovery

**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 samples were submitted to ALS Canada Ltd. and reviewed by a Qualified Person.

Evidence · text

> All rock samples collected were submitted to ALS Canada Ltd. in Moncton, New Brunswick

## 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.
