## Minestarters Atlas summary

Nine Mile Metals has announced certified assay results from drill hole WD-25-2B at the Wedge Mine in New Brunswick. The hole returned a significant 3.17% CuEq intercept over 15.00 meters, including a high-grade 5.99% CuEq interval over 6.84 meters.

Reasoning: The drill hole returned a significant 3.17% CuEq intercept over 15m, including a high-grade 5.99% CuEq sub-interval, demonstrating strong mineralization at the Wedge Mine.

- Positive factor: Strong copper-equivalent grade

- Positive factor: High-grade sub-interval reported

- Positive factor: Certified assays mentioned

Facts used in scoring: 10

## Classification and evidence

**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: The release explicitly mentions 'certified assays'.

Evidence · text

> announced it has received certified assays

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The 5.99% CuEq sub-interval is exceptionally high grade for this deposit type.

Evidence · text

> Including 5.99% CuEq Over 6.84 Meters

## 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.
