## Minestarters Atlas summary

OceanaGold has submitted a permit application for its Macraes Phase 4 Project \(MP4\) in New Zealand, aiming to extend the mine life from 2032 to the late 2030s. This initiative is supported by recent technical studies and exploration drilling, which has confirmed and extended gold mineralization at the Coronation, GPUG, Innes Mills, and Nunns areas. Notable drill intercepts include 7.9 m @ 5.4 g/t Au at Coronation and 14.0 m @ 2.5 g/t Au at Nunns, with results supporting both resource conversion and step-out exploration.

Reasoning: OceanaGold has submitted a permit application to extend the Macraes mine life to the late 2030s, supported by positive drill results that confirm and extend gold mineralization, and convert inferred resources. The results include several strong to exceptional grade intercepts over good widths, with robust QA/QC disclosure.

- Positive factor: Permit application submitted for mine life extension

- Positive factor: Strong drill grades supporting resource conversion

- Positive factor: Successful extension drilling identifying new opportunities

- Positive factor: Comprehensive QA/QC disclosure

- Positive factor: Transparent compositing parameters

- Negative factor: True widths of intercepts not determined

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

Facts used in scoring: 40

## Classification and evidence

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states that 'Intervals are down hole core length; true widths have not been determined.'

Evidence · text

> Intervals are down hole core length; true widths have not been determined.

**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 includes a detailed 'Quality Assurance and Quality Control \("QA/QC"\)' section outlining procedures, certified labs, and methods.

Evidence · text

> Quality Assurance and Quality Control \("QA/QC"\) The Macraes operation sampling and analyses processes are undertaken within the framework outlined by standard operating procedures \(SOPs\).

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals.

Why it applies: The document clearly states the criteria for significant intercepts, including a minimum length of 2.0 m, a cut-off of 0.25 g/t Au, and a maximum internal waste of 5.1 m with a consecutive length of 4.1 m.

Evidence · text

> To meet the criteria of a significant intercept for this table, composites are at least 2.0 m long and the cut-off of waste to ore is 0.25 g/t Au. Each composite interval is allowed to contain a maximum of 5.1 m of waste at a maximum consecutive length of 4.1 m of waste.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Several drill intercepts are explicitly categorized as 'Extension' activity, indicating step-out exploration drilling.

Evidence · table

> Extension

Context: DDH8273

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: Many drill intercepts are explicitly categorized as 'Conversion' activity, which is defined as 'converting Inferred Mineral Resources to Indicated Mineral Resources category'.

Evidence · table

> Conversion

Context: DDH8283

**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: The press release states that 'Knowell Madambi, a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101' and 'Mr. Keenan Jennings, a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101' have reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information.

Evidence · text

> the scientific and technical information in this press release has been reviewed and approved by Knowell Madambi, a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101. Mr. Madambi is the Manager – Technical Services & Projects of OceanaGold. The scientific and technical information in this press release relating to exploration matters has been reviewed and approved by Mr. Keenan Jennings, a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101.

**Cut-off Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Cut-off grade used for resource reporting is clearly stated, enabling like-for-like comparison.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states the cut-off grade used for reporting significant intercepts as '0.25 g/t Au'.

Evidence · text

> the cut-off of waste to ore is 0.25 g/t Au

## 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.
