## Minestarters Atlas summary

Meridian has reported strong drill results from the final phase of its Cabaçal DFS drilling program. The results include multiple high-grade gold-equivalent intersections, such as 27.5m at 1.9g/t AuEq, and highlight significant gold-dominant layers.

Reasoning: The drill results show high-grade gold-equivalent intercepts with significant width, supporting the DFS drilling phase objectives.

- Positive factor: Strong AuEq grades and widths reported

- Positive factor: High-grade sub-intervals \(bonanza style\) identified

- Positive factor: Multi-commodity intersections \(Au-Cu-Ag\)

Facts used in scoring: 17

## Classification and evidence

**Metal Equivalent Opaque**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Metal equivalent grade reported without disclosing the price, recovery, or payability assumptions used. Requires an actual metal equivalent grade; a combined elemental basket such as PGE is not a metal equivalent.

Why it applies: The release reports AuEq and CuEq grades without disclosing the specific price, recovery, or payability assumptions used for the calculation.

Evidence · text

> 27.5m @ 1.9g/t AuEq \(1.4% CuEq\)

## 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.
