## Minestarters Atlas summary

Many Peaks Minerals has reported significant deep gold drill results at the Ouarigue deposit, extending the mineralised vertical extent to over 900m. The results include a top intercept of 116m at 2.78g/t Au and have prompted the company to progress a scoping-level study for underground mining.

Reasoning: The announcement reports high-grade, wide, and deep gold intercepts that significantly extend the known vertical extent of the Ouarigue deposit, providing a clear pathway for underground development.

- Positive factor: Significant deep gold intercepts extending vertical mineralisation extent

- Positive factor: True width disclosure for deep intersection

- Positive factor: Expansion of geological modelling area below existing resource

- Positive factor: Progression towards integrated economic study \(scoping underground + PFS open pit\)

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Drilling extends the tested vertical extent of gold mineralisation from 540m to more than 900m.

Evidence · text

> extended the tested vertical extent of gold mineralisation from about 540m to more than 900m

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: FNDC161 reported an estimated 110m true width and a 38m true width zone.

Evidence · text

> FNDC161 intersecting an estimated 110m true width of mineralised intrusion

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The drilling is testing potential beneath the existing resource to underpin an underground assessment.

Evidence · text

> Many Peaks is testing the gold potential beneath Ouarigue’s existing resource.

## 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.
